The problem
Your clients have capital, and you have big plans, but risk and regulation hold you back.
On-chain markets, clients subject to regulatory (TradFi) considerations, and those looking to deploy significant asset volume on chain carry increased levels of risk.

Why Inherence
Control
Stop rule-breaking actions before they happen. Write your rules in plain English. Inherence turns them into a check that runs before every action.
Proof
Every action comes with a proof (receipt) that anyone you work with can check themselves.
Privacy
Prove the rules held without sharing your data. Amounts, limits, and strategies stay private. The receipt shows the rules held and nothing more.
Imagine what markets you could access if risk management was simple, efficient, and easy to oversee.
Institutions are already asking how vault controls can support oversight.
In an April 2026 submission to the SEC and CFTC, Wave Digital Assets discussed vault architectures, client confidentiality, and privacy-preserving examination. They show the need to connect investment controls with reviewable evidence.
FAQs
The manager or curator retains its investment and execution role. Inherence evaluates the agreed rules and generates proof that the rules were followed.
An investment mandate is the set of rules an allocator sets for whoever manages its capital, whether that's a fund manager or a vault curator: approved assets and venues, exposure and concentration limits, liquidity requirements, and required approvals.
Yes, the same approach can be scoped to an individual account or pooled structure. It works wherever Inherence can see the account's current holdings and sits in the path that approves trades.
Logs and onchain data show what happened after a trade settles. Inherence checks each trade against the mandate before it executes and blocks the ones that break it. The proof also covers rules public data can't show, like limits that depend on offchain inputs or span several accounts.
A proof shows your mandate was followed. Market risk, valuation quality, custody, smart contract security, and data completeness require their own controls.
The proof shows that your limits held and nothing more. Your strategy, pending trades, and offchain positions stay private. Holdings in an onchain vault are already public, so the proof protects what the chain doesn't show.
No. You can start by running past trades through Inherence, or by checking live trades without blocking them. Blocking requires Inherence to sit in the path that approves trades.
