MLNavigator is the company. adapterOS is the deterministic inference runtime it commercializes. The company provides deployment, support, and compliance services around the core runtime.
The Separation
adapterOS exists as a standalone runtime designed for offline, verifiable AI execution. It handles model loading, adapter management, proof generation, and audit logging. The runtime itself is intended to be deployable without ongoing vendor involvement. MLNavigator, the organization, provides the services that enterprises require around such a runtime: integration consulting, compliance documentation, incident response, and long-term support agreements.
This separation is intentional. The runtime must function in disconnected environments where vendor access is prohibited or impossible. ITAR-controlled facilities, classified networks, and air-gapped manufacturing floors cannot call home. The company provides pre-deployment services (integration, training, compliance mapping) and post-deployment services (support contracts, update distribution, audit assistance) while the runtime operates independently.
MLNavigator's business model does not depend on telemetry, usage metering, or cloud services. The runtime is licensed; the company earns from deployment services and support. This aligns incentives: the company benefits when customers successfully operate adapterOS in isolation.
How We Work
Evidence > vibes Decisions require data. Claims require measurement. Assertions about performance, security, or compliance are backed by reproducible tests or they are not made.
Offline-first Network connectivity is treated as a risk, not a feature. Every capability is designed to function without internet access. Online features, when they exist, are additive and optional.
Determinism where possible Reproducible outputs enable verification. Fixed seeds, pinned versions, and declared tolerances are defaults. When determinism is not achievable, variance is documented and bounded.
Audit trails always Every operation that affects model state, configuration, or output produces a logged, timestamped, hash-linked record. Logs are deletion-detectable. Gaps are visible.
Compliance is architecture, not paperwork Compliance requirements shape system design from the start. Controls are implemented in code, not documented after the fact. Audit readiness is a runtime property, not a quarterly exercise.
