Building reliable AI Agents for Fighting Crime
Join TRM Labs and Vercel for a dev meetup in San Francisco!
We'll talk through how TRM built it's AI investigative agent -- used by law enforcement and national security agencies globally to fight crime -- on Vercel's AI SDK.
Why attend
Hear about the challenges, decision trade-offs and creative solutions TRM applied in building an agent for high-consequence workflows, including:
TRM's agent architecture
• How we compose prompts, skills and tools to keep reliability at scale.
• Fast, object-store-backed file systems for multi-turn conversation state
• Evals as safety net: how we build them, what we measure and how we keep costs sane
Agents on Vercel
• Where Vercel's AI SDK fits in TRM's stack today, and where we're going deeper
• Exploring Vercel Sandbox / AI Gateway next for isolated execution, filesystem/bash support, and model routing
Q&A
• Vercel Sandbox vs. other sandbox options; build vs. buy
• Eval cost, latency, and infra constraints as agent usage scales
Who should attend
• AI/ML and backend engineers shipping agentic features
• Platform and infra engineers running LLM workloads
• DX and tooling leads evaluating Vercel's AI SDK or Sandbox
• Founders and builders designing agent products

About TRM Labs
TRM is where AI, on-chain financial flows, and real‑world investigations unite: we build the intelligence layer that law enforcement, national security teams, and financial institutions use to disrupt ransomware, scams, sanctions evasion, and other global threats. Our engineering teams focus on large‑scale data and systems problems — indexing many blockchains, modeling adversarial behavior, and building AI‑assisted workflows that must be correct, explainable, and reliable for real‑world decision makers.
