[PRLog](https://www.prlog.org/13181685-mosaicdm-accepted-into-alacrity-canadas-arc-lab-defence-program.html) reported the acceptance on November 6, 2026. The program helps Canadian companies understand how Canada buys defence technology and what it takes to get new capability into service.\n\n## How MosaicDM's DI Architecture Works\n\nMosaicDM joins [Alacrity Canada](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0002nkh/alacrity-canada)'s ARC Lab as one of the few participants focused not on hardware but on the governance layer that sits across it. The company's DI technology is a deterministic decision architecture that checks each AI output against declared rules and authority before it proceeds. Anything unsupported, contradictory or outside its authority is refused with a stated reason, and every evaluation produces a tamper-evident receipt.\n\nDI runs on standard CPU servers with no cloud dependency, including in disconnected and air-gapped environments. Mark Jennings-Bates, co-founder and COO of MosaicDM and a retired Canadian Army captain, said: \"Drones, sensors and autonomous systems are arriving faster than the rules that govern them. Every one of those systems will eventually have to answer the same question: how do you know this output was safe to act on? DI answers that with proof, not confidence. ARC Lab gives us the right setting to show Canada's defence community what that looks like.\"\n\nMark Acosta, co-founder and CEO of MosaicDM, described how the architecture differs from other governance approaches. \"Most AI governance today asks one model to judge another, which means the check is as uncertain as the thing it is checking. DI works differently. It decomposes each decision into its governing constraints, its evidence and its authority, and evaluates them deterministically,\" he said.
