Sober Agentic Infrastructure, Inc.

Sober Agentic Infrastructure, Inc. (SAI) is a Dallas, Texas company that builds and maintains VAREK, an open-source authorization runtime for autonomous AI agents released under the MIT license. SAI was founded in March 2026 by Kenneth Douglas, MD, a physician by training, on a clinical-reliability principle: medicine does not deploy systems that are usually right. VAREK applies that standard to AI agents that act with no human in the loop (HOOTL). Funding requested here supports work on the public VAREK repository: an independent security audit, maintainer time, and continued hardening of the runtime.
