Multi-agent systems & retrieval pipelines
Agent swarms with bounded tool access, retrieval over private document sets, output guardrails and evaluation harnesses that measure correctness before a system reaches production.
Empowering Autonomy
TICNES AI develops digital assets for the future of intelligence. We build applied artificial intelligence, data science systems and information-security engineering that execute real work — and leave the decisions with the people accountable for them.
Technical Pillars
Agent swarms with bounded tool access, retrieval over private document sets, output guardrails and evaluation harnesses that measure correctness before a system reaches production.
Forecasting, classification and Portuguese-language text measurement built on real operational data, with reporting shaped for the people who have to act on it.
Least-privilege access design, sandboxed execution for autonomous workloads, TLS 1.3 in transit, AES-GCM-256 at rest and post-quantum key planning for long-lived records.
Platforms & Initiatives
Each platform is an independent application on its own subdomain, addressing one concrete problem for one identifiable audience.
A scholarship programme for university students run as an open competition, with published criteria, evaluated submissions and disbursed awards.
Open platform →A local-first desktop photo library with on-device vision captioning, EXIF-aware metadata and folder-scoped full-text search. Images stay on your machine.
Open platform →A study assistant that works through problems step by step in Portuguese or English, built for the bandwidth realities of local learners.
Open platform →An intelligent social-research engine that classifies Portuguese-language public opinion into sentiment and theme distributions rather than raw keyword counts.
Open platform →An assistant for the Angolan General Labour Law (Lei n.º 12/23) that locates the governing article, quotes it and explains the obligation in plain language.
Open platform →Practical automation training for small and medium businesses: finding the tasks worth automating and keeping the result working afterwards.
Open platform →Our Mission
Founded in 2015 by systems engineers working on multi-agent coordination, TICNES AI builds software that absorbs repetitive operational work and returns judgement to the people responsible for it. Twenty-plus systems deployed, six live platforms, and a standing rule across all of them: automation proposes, a named human authorises.
