Governed AI coding ยท prove, don't show

The agentic workspace
you can prove.

Reef is an open, governed IDE for AI coding agents. Every action is tamper-evidently recorded, independently verifiable, and reversible โ€” so you can trust what the agent did, not just hope. Your keys, your data, no lock-in.

Early and building in the open. The control plane is already live and verifiable.

Why Reef

Four things incumbents don't give you.

AI writes more of your code every week. Reef makes that safe to trust โ€” by making it provable, stoppable, honest, and reversible.

Verifiable, not vibes

Every observation, edit, and decision becomes a link in a tamper-evident chain. verify re-checks it without trusting the store โ€” green when intact, red on a single altered byte.

evidence chain ยท store-untrusting

Governance that can say no

A fail-closed acceptance gate sits between the agent and your repo. Unreviewed or dangerous changes are denied โ€” and the denial is recorded as evidence, not silently dropped.

Honest economics

Bring your own key โ€” no markup, no resale. Usage is real and API-sourced, labeled by where the number came from. No invented "0 / 50 credits" meter.

BYOK ยท real, sourced usage

Replayable & attributable

Reproduce any session byte-for-byte. A Worker Ledger records who did what. Export an audit pack mapped to SOC 2, ISO 42001, and EU AI Act trail requirements.

One stack, every surface

Same governance, wherever you work.

One philosophy โ€” governed, verifiable, yours โ€” running across the whole lifecycle. Start in the terminal, move to the IDE, review on the web.

The difference

Others show you output. Reef lets you prove it.

Typical AI IDE

  • โœ• Trust the tool's word that it did the right thing
  • โœ• Opaque credit meter you can't audit
  • โœ• Your code and keys flow through someone else's cloud
  • โœ• An unreviewed agent change ships to prod

Reef

  • โœ“ Re-verify every step yourself, without trusting the store
  • โœ“ Real usage, sourced and labeled โ€” BYOK, no markup
  • โœ“ Local-first; your keys and data stay yours
  • โœ“ The gate denies it and records why
Prove, don't show

See a claim? Verify it.

The control plane is live right now. Hit verify and watch it re-check its own ledger โ€” the same check that turns red the instant anything is altered.
