Caution is a verifiable compute platform that adds an extra layer of integrity guarantees on top of confidential compute. It cryptographically links the code running inside an enclave back to the reviewed source code, build inputs, and configuration that produced the enclave image, so anyone can verify what is running in production.

Caution currently supports deployments on AWS Nitro Enclaves, with additional attestation backends in active development.

No. Caution builds on top of AWS Nitro Enclaves, not instead of them. Nitro provides hardware-level isolation and attestation. Caution extends those guarantees by linking enclave measurements back to auditable source code and reproducible builds.

Caution is in private beta. To get started, request an access code by booking a call with our engineers or emailing info@caution.co. Once you have the access code, follow the quick start guide to deploy your first verifiable compute workload.

Caution offers bring-your-own-compute and fully managed deployment options. Because Caution is open source, teams can also self-host it if they want to operate deployments independently.

Compare the options in the deployment models reference.

Yes. Beta is available for teams deploying real workloads today, and you can deploy real code and use the full verifiable compute workflow in production.

Yes. Caution is fully open source, which is essential for verifiable compute. You can't ask people to trust a verification system they can't inspect. Open source means you can audit the build process, verify our tooling does what we claim, and even run the entire system yourself if you prefer.
