About INDYKITE NORWAY AS

IndyKite is a Norwegian AI infrastructure company that enables organizations to build and operate AI systems in which every interaction with data is trusted, authorized, and accountable โ€” in real time. As enterprises move AI from experimentation to production deployment, they encounter a set of challenges that general-purpose AI infrastructure was not designed to address: ensuring that AI systems access only the data they are permitted to see, that every data interaction is logged and auditable, and that compliance with data governance requirements is enforced automatically rather than left to manual oversight. The companies that IndyKite targets are those at the frontier of real AI production deployment โ€” organizations that have already committed to building AI into their core operations and cannot afford the data breaches, compliance failures, or accountability gaps that poorly governed AI systems can create. These are enterprises that refuse to accept the false choice between innovation and control, believing that it is possible to move fast with AI while still maintaining the data governance standards that regulators, customers, and their own risk functions require. IndyKite's platform provides the authorization and accountability layer that sits between AI systems and the data they need to operate โ€” acting as the intelligent gatekeeper that ensures AI agents, models, and workflows interact with data in ways that are consistent with defined policies, logged for audit purposes, and responsive to real-time governance requirements. This is infrastructure that operates invisibly when everything is working correctly, but becomes critical the moment a governance failure could expose the organization to regulatory action or reputational damage. Growth is built on partnerships and ecosystem development, working with AI platform providers, enterprise technology integrators, and regulated industry customers to embed IndyKite's governance layer into the AI architectures that organizations are building today. As AI regulation tightens โ€” particularly under the EU AI Act and related frameworks โ€” the demand for trustworthy, auditable AI infrastructure is set to grow significantly, and IndyKite is building the capability to be the trusted answer to that demand.

The Story

Previously, he co-founded ForgeRock, which transitioned from a startup to a publicly traded industry leader, achieving a valuation of $2.8 billion at its IPO. The results vary... - Understanding what the permissions of each agent are and should be (remember, we have 1000 agents running worldwide, each agent can call any other it discovers). - Being able to map one-to-one, each required the agent's permissions to the existing roles.
