About Alex Cinovoj

Control planes for AI agents.

I'm Alex Cinovoj, Founder and CTO of TechTide AI. Thirteen years of US enterprise IT. I build the boring parts agents need to run in production. Policy engines. Approval workflows. Immutable audit. Budget ceilings. Eval harnesses. Then I take blocked Claude initiatives across the finish line.

Logs over vibes. Production over theater.

Nine Anthropic Academy certifications. Lovable Senior Champion. Co-host of the Automation Vibes podcast. Open-source work spans the governance layer of the 2026 agent ecosystem: ClawKeeper (110 policy-gated agents), CipherClaw (deterministic multi-agent debugging), TechTideAI2 (three-plane control architecture).

I work across model providers (Claude, Gemini, Codex) and agent frameworks (OpenClaw, Hermes, Goose, DeepAgents). Deny-by-default egress. Immutable audit as a database primitive, not a log file. Eval harnesses in CI, not on a laptop.

Based in Columbus, Ohio. Building quietly. Shipping loudly.

Where Alex operates

The governance layer.

Control planes

Policy engines, approval gates, immutable audit, kill switches. Deterministic checks before any LLM call.

Trust contracts & eval harnesses

Risk tiers, tool permissions, deny-by-default egress, adversarial fixtures, CI-enforced validation gates.

Governed orchestration

Budget caps, circuit breakers, correlation-ID telemetry. Multi-agent systems that fail closed, not open.

Flagship projects

What's running in production.

ClawKeeper

110-agent finance platform. Policy-gated LLM calls, $0 default autonomous spend, immutable audit.

TechTide Harness Kit

Trust contracts as JSON Schema. Deny-by-default egress. ~28 CI validation gates.

CipherClaw

Deterministic multi-agent debugger. Zero LLM calls in analysis. 206 zero-mock tests, zero deps.

Swarm 357

357-agent orchestrator. Per-agent budgets, hard per-run ceiling, pattern-matched bash security gate.

AgentRewind

Time-travel debugging for agent traces. Signed ingestion, five auto-detected formats, diff engine.

FintheFinder

Deep-research agent with real human-in-the-loop approval. Deterministic citation audit.

Molten

Governed agent runtime. Kill switch, circuit breakers, four-tier sandbox, dead-man's switch.

TechTideAI2

Company-scale platform. Control/data/evidence planes. Adversarial eval harness, 33-task golden suite.
