We are building Determina for teams shipping serious AI systems.

Determina is an early company started by Alankrit Verma and Murphy Lee. We are building the infrastructure layer for rehearsing AI behavior before release, with the discipline of engineering tools and the urgency of real product teams.

why this team

We have lived the gap between demos, model metrics, and release decisions.

Our work sits where ML systems, infrastructure, product judgment, and customer trust meet. That is the founder-level bet behind Determina: make AI release behavior observable, reviewable, and hard to hand-wave.

how we work

Small, technical, and direct.

join us

Help us build the release infrastructure AI teams should already have.

We are looking for unusually strong builders who want responsibility early. If you can move between product judgment, systems work, and careful execution, we want to hear from you.
