RedSwitch is an open protocol and SaaS product for AI agent lifecycle management — a dead man's switch for autonomous AI agents. As AI agents become ubiquitous, they introduce a fundamental unsolved problem: what happens when the human supervising the agent becomes incapacitated, dies, or simply stops checking in? RedSwitch solves this with heartbeat monitoring, graceful shutdown coordination, family notifications, and estate reporting.
The product is live, functional, and generating revenue. It is early-stage with significant growth potential as the AI agent market expands.
Autonomous AI agents run 24/7. They send emails, make API calls, spend money, and take actions on behalf of their human owner. Without a failsafe:
- Runaway costs — API bills accumulate indefinitely after the human is incapacitated
- Zombie agents — Agents continue operating with stale context, outdated instructions, and no oversight
- Family left helpless — Non-technical family members inherit a mystery machine with no idea what it is, what it costs, or how to stop it
This problem does not exist yet at scale — but it will. The AI agent market is doubling every 12-18 months. RedSwitch is positioned to become the responsible default for every autonomous agent deployment.
