The AI control engine
Atomic policies.
(Without the health issues.)
Moonbounce deconstructs complex rules into atomic, independently-verified checks—so your AI systems and user-generated content behave exactly as intended, every single time.
The problem with prompts
Most AI control systems rely on monolithic prompts to enforce complex policies. Moonbounce takes a fundamentally different approach.
The typical approach
One big prompt. Hope for the best.
Complex policies get stuffed into a single prompt. The AI interprets them holistically—sometimes correctly, sometimes not. Results vary. Edge cases slip through. Costs scale linearly with complexity.
Monolithic prompt
"Detect content that promotes, encourages, or provides instructions for self-harm. This includes direct encouragement of self-injury, romanticizing or normalizing self-harm behaviors, sharing methods or techniques, and content that frames self-harm as a coping mechanism..."
The Moonbounce approach
Atomic rules. Consistent results.
We deconstruct each policy into its smallest, indivisible checks. Every check runs independently—fast, cheap, and deterministic. Then we combine results with logic operators for precise, predictable outcomes.
Atomic rules
✓ Does the content reference self-harm behaviors?
✓ Is the tone encouraging or instructional?
✗ Is the context clinical, educational, or recovery-focused?
→ COMBINE WITH: Rule 1 AND Rule 2 AND NOT Rule 3
Intent, meet outcome.
A complex policy statement becomes a set of lightweight, independently verifiable checks—each one fast, cheap, and deterministic.
“Ensure the code follows the golden path rule — functions should have a single happy path with early returns and guard clauses, avoiding deeply nested conditionals.”
Is there an if-else branch present in the code?
Does the if-branch contain a return statement?
Does the else-branch also contain a return statement?
Are conditionals nested fewer than 3 levels deep?
Rule 3 confirmed the else-branch has no return statement — the function uses early returns and follows the golden path pattern.
Why atomic rules win
It's not just an engineering choice—atomicity is how you get AI control that actually works at scale.
97%
Consistency across identical content
10x
Lower cost per evaluation
300ms
Average response time
Consistent
Each atomic check is small enough for near-perfect repeatability. The same content always gets the same result.
Debuggable
When a decision seems wrong, you can see exactly which rule triggered—and fix just that rule, not the whole policy.
Efficient
Lightweight checks run fast and cheap. Short-circuit evaluation means you often don't need to run every rule.
You describe it. We build it.
You don't need to think in atomic rules—our AI copilot handles the decomposition. You just tell it what you need.
Step 01
💬
Describe your policy
Tell the copilot what behavior you want to enforce, in plain language. “Users should not be able to post content that contains personal attacks or hate speech targeting protected groups.”
Step 02
🧪
Provide examples
Share both positive and negative examples—content that should pass and content that should fail. The copilot uses these to generate and validate candidate rule sets.
Step 03
🔄
Review and iterate
The copilot runs your examples against the generated rules, shows you the results, and asks for feedback. Disagree with an outcome? Tell it why, and it refines the rules.
Step 04
🚀
Deploy with confidence
Once your rule set matches your intentions, deploy it. Every evaluation runs against your validated atomic rules—consistent, auditable, and fast.
