Chetan Conikee is the founder and CEO of Modiqo, where he works on infrastructure for AI agents. He is a four-time founder with three prior exits — CashEdge (acquired by Fiserv), Business Signatures (Entrust), and Qwiet AI (Harness) — and has spent more than two decades building protocol and security infrastructure, from financial messaging systems like SWIFT, ACH, and FIX to hypervisors and application security platforms. His current work focuses on how agent systems capture, verify, and reuse operational experience instead of rediscovering it. He writes regularly on agent infrastructure, information theory, and the engineering of complex systems at conikeec.substack.com, drawing on interests that range from category theory and cognitive neuroscience to the economics of computation. He is based in Sunnyvale, California.
