Five Hands Hold the Fence

Context Fence is a machine, but it is not a machine alone. Five people built it, and five people keep it honest: two founders at the protocol layer, three more holding the build together. The desk asked each of them what they do, and — for once — got straight answers.

Aditya Srivastava — [Founder]
Mr. Srivastava at the runtime. Nothing leaves the machine.

The founder who built the runtime

Aditya Srivastava[Founder] · Final-year CS undergraduate, SRM.

Builds the runtime proxy, policy engine, and audit pipeline, focused on making agent traffic inspectable and enforceable at the protocol layer.

Make agent traffic inspectable and enforceable at the protocol layer — that is the whole bet.

The co-founder who laid the stack

Saniya Saw[Co-founder] · Final-year CS undergraduate, VIT.
