Five commitments that define deterministic governance — and that every EVE product is built to satisfy.

01

Enforce before execution

Governance must be able to stop an action, not just annotate it after the fact. The gate runs before the model output reaches the world.

02

Reproducibility over probability

A verdict that cannot be reproduced cannot be examined. Determinism is the precondition for accountability.

03

Evidence by default

Every decision produces a tamper-evident, independently verifiable record — no separate logging step to forget.

04

Decouple policy from the model

Models change weekly. Policy should not silently change with them. Governance is versioned independently of the model.

05

Fail closed

When the governance layer is uncertain or unavailable, the safe default is to deny — never to silently allow.
