Sovereign trading governance.
Local-first by design.
Mandate is built to solve a fundamental buy-side dilemma: how to prove rigorous compliance to allocators and regulators without exposing proprietary trading strategies, execution details, or positions. We solve this not with promises or secure clouds, but with local-first cryptographic receipts.
The book stays on your machine. The proof travels.
Your signing keys are generated locally. All trade evaluation runs against your own dedicated node using the open-source AWS Cedar engine. No external server ever holds your key material.
Mandate does not require a cloud connection to gate orders. It is designed to work in isolated environments, meaning there is zero upload latency and zero risk of vendor data leaks.
Allocators can verify period proof packs offline, in their own browser, using public cryptography. They do not need a Mandate account, and they never see individual positions or trades.
Open-source standards.
Developed under the ScopeBlind group, a trust-minimization research group dedicated to building high-fidelity compliance tools. We believe security that relies on secrets is obsolete. That is why all verification algorithms, client parser routines, and mathematical checks are open source and public-domain.
The offline verifier core and Sigil receipt-chain data structures undergo regular cryptographic reviews. All findings and code improvements are logged transparently on GitHub.
Where the protocol is heading.
Pre-trade Cedar rule validation on local blotter entries. Local key generation and basic signed verdict receipts.
Multi-broker read-only connector integration (e.g., IBKR Flex) and automated T-1 custodian reconciliation with 5-basis-point tolerance.
Integration of cryptographic ZK proofs and decentralized attestation hooks to conceal asset allocation sizes while proving strict mandate boundaries.
