Kerq launches free trust verification layer for AI tools
Kerq is a new service that checks whether AI tools are actually safe and reliable before developers use them. The founder announced it directly on Reddit and it's currently free for developers. It's in early stages with limited public detail so far.
As the number of AI tools keeps growing, it's become hard to know which ones can actually be trusted. Kerq positions itself as a 'trust layer' — a verification step that sits between developers and the AI tools they use, checking whether those tools do what they claim and meet basic safety standards.
The founder posted about the launch on Reddit's AI developers community and is offering free access to developers right now. However, the announcement lacks detailed technical specifics or independent test results, so the real-world value of the service is unclear until more developers try it and share feedback.
