Essays from the AxisIQ team on the AI brain for business, trustworthy AI agents and the engineering behind the platform.

Writing from the team building AxisIQ: why we think business software should do work rather than wait for it, how an AI assistant should be trusted with company data, and the engineering behind the platform — including the database engine we wrote ourselves.

AI agents need permissions, not trust — An AI assistant is only trustworthy if it runs under the asking user's permissions. AxisIQ checks every Ask Axis tool call and relays refusals.
What is an AI brain for business? — An AI brain for business remembers a company's live records, understands them and acts on them, under each person's permissions.
Why we built AxisIQ — AxisIQ exists because software for growing companies is either a toy or a project. One live model of the company, with Axis doing the work, closes the gap.
Why we built our own database (and why you probably shouldn't) — AxisIQ runs on a SQL engine we wrote in C, giving each customer organisation its own database. What that bought, what it cost, and when not to copy it.
