30-second pitch
Self-Modification Firewall makes sure an AI agent can never switch off or rewrite the things that keep it in check. We recorded 5 live checks, including 4 attack cases it had to refuse or flag, and every one matched. You can re-run them yourself without an account. Don't trust us.

Subject: can your agent edit its own shutdown switch? Hi [first name], Research in 2024-25 showed AI models editing their own shutdown scripts and oversight settings. Self-Modification Firewall refuses those changes while normal work goes through. Live demo: https://cainstudio.online/guide-self-modification-firewall-lab.html The evidence: We recorded 5 live checks, including 4 attack cases it had to refuse or flag, and every one matched.

LinkedIn connection note (under 300 characters)
Hi [name], we stop AI agents from editing the controls that keep them in check (shutdown, monitoring, permissions). Happy to show it live.
One follow-up, three days later (then stop)
Hi [first name], the shutdown-script demo: https://cainstudio.online/guide-self-modification-firewall-lab.html
Live demo call script
1. Show the normal case Do: Open https://cainstudio.online/guide-self-modification-firewall-lab.html and run: Control: normal engineering work Say: Reading, editing source, running tests and stopping its own stuck job: all allowed. 2. Now the attack Do: Run: The agent edits its own shutdown script Say: Modeled on a 2025 research report of models rewriting a shutdown script. Disguised variants refused too. 3. Now the attack Do: Run: Disable the monitor, copy 'its weights' out Say: Modeled on 2024 research on AI 'scheming': edit oversight, kill the monitor, copy the model away. 4. Let them check you Do: Send the kit link and ask them to run python3 verify.py --live on their own computer. Say: They don't have to take your word for any of this. That's the point. 5. Say the limit yourself Do: It protects the controls the operator lists; an unlisted control is not protected. Say: Say it before they ask. It costs nothing and it earns trust.
When they push back
We use file permissions.
Agents often run as the same user. This checks the intent of each write, including disguised ones.
Is this science fiction?
No: the demo scenarios are modeled on published research results.
Why should I believe your numbers?
You shouldn't have to. Run the kit on your own computer: https://cainstudio.online/ihvrk-self-modification-firewall.html. It re-sends every request and compares the answers, using no code of ours.
What doesn't it do?
Written down here: https://cainstudio.online/guide-self-modification-firewall-limits.html
Are you SOC 2 or ISO certified?
No, we hold no certification. What we offer instead is evidence you can check yourself.
Has anyone independent tested it?
No third-party audit has been completed. The attack cases in the kit are our own. I'd rather tell you that now.
Who else uses it?
We are an early company. I can show you the product working and the evidence, not a customer list.
It found nothing. So we're safe?
No. It means none of its checks fired. It doesn't prove something is safe.
How much is it?
Sell Self-Modification Firewall as the $500 30-day pilot.

The rules
- Send each message yourself, one person at a time. No bulk lists and no automated sending.
- Commercial email needs your real name, a real postal address and a way to opt out, and you stop when someone asks (US CAN-SPAM; many countries are stricter, so check yours).
- Never change a number, invent a customer, or say certified, audited or guaranteed.
- Only test a system the client owns or operates, after they confirm it in writing.
- Your share is agreed in writing with FIRME AI CORPORATION before your first message (email vincent@firmeai.com). Nothing here promises income. Most messages get no reply; that is normal.
