Cintara and Secret AI Partner To Bring Privacy-Preserving AI to Blockchain

July 28, 2025 – Ashburn, United States

Strategic collaboration for confidential agentic AI.

Cintara, the first blockchain operating system purpose-built for autonomous AI agents, today announced strategic partnership with Secret AI, a leader in privacy-preserving computation.

This collaboration integrates Secret AI’s encrypted AI processing framework into Cintara’s innovative agentic blockchain infrastructure, enabling sensitive agent-to-agent interactions securely and privately on-chain.

Expanding opportunities for developers and enterprises

With this integration, developers and enterprises can now deploy autonomous agents that securely process private data, making Cintara viable for highly regulated use cases in finance, healthcare and compliance-focused industries.

Secret AI’s encrypted computation ensures that sensitive data remains fully protected during inference and execution, meeting strict global privacy regulations.

Executive perspectives

Subodh Shetty, CTO of Cintara, said,

“This partnership helps us bring privacy-preserving AI agents to life.

“Secret AI adds a critical layer of confidentiality to how Cintara agents operate and share data on-chain – essential as we move towards real-world, regulated use cases.”

Alex Zaidelson, CEO of SCRT Labs, said,

“We’re excited to collaborate with Cintara and bring our privacy-preserving AI technology to a revolutionary blockchain environment

“Their vision of AI-native infrastructure aligns closely with our approach to trust, safety and confidential computing.

“Together, we’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with on-chain AI.”

Technical details of the integration

Secret AI enables confidential AI computation using TEE (trusted execution environments) and TDX (trusted domain extensions).

For developers building agentic systems on blockchain, this opens a new category of possibilities, such as secure health diagnostics, private financial automation and AI assistants that handle personal data with guaranteed integrity through verifiable confidential computing.

Further technical collaboration with Secret Network

In addition, Cintara is partnering with Secret Network to enhance enterprise-grade capabilities, such as the following.

• Confidential AI by default – Cintara’s smart-contract-based LLM (large language model) computations will run inside Secret Network’s TEE Secret VMs (virtual machines), keeping user prompts and on-chain data fully private and verifiably sealed, eliminating exposure to third-party AI providers.
• Verifiable compute marketplace – In Cintara’s upcoming decentralized compute market, developers can select standard nodes or Secret-powered TEE nodes. Each computational job executed in a Secret VM provides a cryptographic attestation, confirming the exact code and model executed, ideal for trustless AI agents and sensitive enterprise workloads.

Privacy and security at scale

Cintara has integrated with Secret AI to provide enhanced privacy and verifiable computation for its transactions.

The collaboration enables Cintara’s LLM analytics to operate on GPU workers within hardware-isolated enclaves, ensuring that user data and on-chain inputs remain encrypted throughout processing.

These secure environments generate signed, tamper-evident outputs.

Additionally, the Secret VM extends TEE protections to Cintara’s smart contract logic, allowing developers to deploy confidential agents and privacy-focused applications in the compute marketplace.

Strategic benefits and real-world adoption

This collaboration delivers premium security, compliance and developer confidence, creating new revenue streams and driving real-world adoption for both Cintara and Secret Network.
