Who is accountable
Hive Forensics AI designs, builds, deploys, and operates production AI, autonomous agents, private knowledge infrastructure, integrations, and custom software. You contract with Hive Forensics AI Inc. — Miami Beach, founded in 2019, founder-operated, and senior-engineer led.
The work is production systems on Knolo: investigations and document evidence, operator agents with gates, private or on-prem knowledge, fraud and chargeback files.V5.1.0 is the current shipping runtime on npm (@knolo/core). V4 Knowledge Images remain the compatible prior line.
How the surfaces divide
hiveai.tech is HIVE — headquarters, senior advisory practice, and the strategic front door. knolo-core is the open-source Knowledge Image engine. knolo.dev is the home for Knolo product documentation. Knolo Hub is a public-beta registry of portable, verifiable Knowledge Images you can inspect, pin by digest, and mount with Knolo Core. This domain is the engineering company: delivery, architecture, security, proof, legal, and engineering intake.
One group. Specialized operating brands.
Where we work
Headquarters is Miami Beach, Florida, United States. Deployments follow the constraint: on-prem, customer VPC, or isolated tenancy named in the statement of work. The company is not a city-landing franchise. The work is production systems.

Careers
We hire slowly and for demonstrated production judgment. When a seat opens, see careers or write contact@hiveforensics.com with examples of systems you have built and operated.
Standard
How this company holds a system.
Systems, not hours
We design, ship, and operate production systems. Staff augmentation, hour rental, and chatbot SKUs are refused.
Evidence over fluency
If a passage cannot be pointed at, hashed, and replayed, it does not enter production. Cosine distance is not an audit trail.
Default-deny
A tool or side effect does not run without an approval or a capability record. Available actions remain deliberately narrower than the model's possible outputs.
The environment follows the constraint
On-prem, VPC, or isolated tenancy is chosen in week 0. Isolation is an environment, not a slide in a vendor brochure.
Eval is a gate
Groundedness, citation coverage, tool-policy, frozen regression. If it cannot be evaluated, it is not in production.
Do not abandon the system
Change control on images, prompts, tools, and models. An accountable operator. We do not vanish after launch.
