Overview
CTGT provides an enterprise AI platform that helps large organizations deploy AI safely and reliably in finance, healthcare, and security. It uses a proprietary method to directly interact with a model’s internal mechanisms to locate and adjust features causing unwanted outputs in real time, reducing the need for retraining. This internal-state manipulation and governance approach enables on-device AI, real-time monitoring, and auditable risk controls, speeding up deployment by up to 500x. The goal is to make enterprise AI trustworthy and scalable for critical applications by offering precise, auditable control over model behavior and performance, differentiating CTGT from competitors that rely primarily on external data changes or retraining.

Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- CTGT launched Mentat in July 2026, adding an OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
- CTGT says its 2026 work improved TruthfulQA from 21% to 70%.
- Fortune 500 and regulated-institution deployments on CTGT access page signal revenue conversion.
What critics are saying

What makes CTGT unique
