Capitol: the sovereign operating system for intelligence.

Summer 2024Founded 202111 peopleWashington, DC, USA

About

Capitol AI is building a sovereign operating system for intelligence, designed for regulated, high-stakes institutions such as professional services firms, financial services, and government agencies. These organizations are overwhelmed by data and experimenting with generic AI tools that lack auditability, repeatability, and secure deployment. As a result, critical decisions are increasingly shaped by systems they do not fully control. Capitol runs entirely inside enterprise infrastructure and transforms proprietary data into structured, decision-grade artifacts such as due diligence reports, regulatory documentation, and executive intelligence. The platform is model-agnostic, fully auditable, and operates with no data egress, giving institutions durable control over their data, workflows, and standards.
