In their words
CTGT is an applied AI research laboratory fundamentally solving the alignment and reliability bottleneck for enterprise AI. For enterprises, especially highly regulated industries, deploying Generative AI is historically a compromise between capability and catastrophic risk. Standard enterprise approaches, such as RAG, fine-tuning, and prompt engineering, operate at the wrong abstraction layer. They are inherently probabilistic, carry massive engineering overhead, and fail to deliver the mathematical certainty required by the Fortune 500. We focus on the science of representation engineering and have productized mechanistic interpretability. By opening the "black box" of neural networks, CTGT has developed a proprietary architecture that intervenes directly at the model's representation layer. We convert complex corporate SOPs, SEC/FINRA regulations, and strict editorial rulebooks into machine-readable "Policy as Code," enforcing deterministic constraints and defensible audit trails without requiring expensive model retraining. The result is a step-function breakthrough in enterprise AI economics and capability. Our fundamental architecture allows organizations to run secure, self-hosted open-source models that mathematically match the reasoning and performance of frontier models. Benchmarks from our enterprise deployments demonstrate a 96.5% prevention of hallucinations, up to a 3.3× accuracy multiplier in complex domain-specific tasks, and an 80-90% reduction in human-in-the-loop manual review. Backed by an $8M seed round from Gradient Ventures (Google), General Catalyst, and Y Combinator, CTGT is currently deployed with Fortune 500 companies, including Tier-1 financial institutions and global media conglomerates, giving them the deterministic control necessary to deploy enterprise AI with zero margin for error.

Is this you?
If you're behind CTGT: acceptance into a YC batch is one of the few weeks a young company gets looked up by people who matter — investors, other founders, press. FoxPlug turns the commits, deploys, and releases you're already making into that story automatically, so anyone who looks finds something current. FoxChat puts a guide on your own site so the people YC's own page just sent you don't read one line and leave.
