About

Alex Galle-From

I am Alex Galle-From, a licensed Minnesota attorney working in trust and fiduciary services. This is my personal site; the projects here are personal work and are unaffiliated with my employer.

Since December 2025 I have built and released open-source tools for holding AI agents accountable — audit trails, evaluations, and consumer-rights utilities — and I wrote a model statute, the Minnesota Digital Trust & Consumer Protection Act, now at version 1.6. The work is about holding autonomous systems to account through records, liability, and verifiable duty rather than surveillance.

Fiduciary AI barely exists as a field. Banks are putting language models inside trust administration. Estate-tech companies are shipping AI-drafted documents into a liability regime written for human drafters. I work both sides of the line: by day I administer trusts inside a risk framework, and on my own time I build the evaluation, audit, and statutory infrastructure the automation will need. Everything on this site is that infrastructure.

Before law I was a musician. I moved into trust administration and, more recently, AI governance. I live and work in Minnesota.

Practice

I am a senior trust officer at a national bank, administering fiduciary relationships in the high nine-figures. Before that: estate planning and probate practice at large Minneapolis firms — wills, revocable and irrevocable trusts, gift, estate, and generation-skipping tax returns, contested probate and guardianship hearings, international estate plans with foreign co-counsel, and esoteric trust and asset-transfer work for ultra-high-net-worth clients. I hold an LL.M. in international tax law from Uppsala University. In law school I was student director of the Insurance Law Clinic.

Music

Before law I was a professional musician, a Berklee-trained violist. I played strings on Cloud Cult's "The Meaning of 8" and performed with Alison Krauss and Ron Carter.

What I’m building

Minnesota Digital Trust & Consumer Protection Act (v1.6, 2025–2026)

A model statute I drafted for AI-agent accountability. It defines bonded credentials backed by capital and strict liability for credential issuers. The framework is substrate-neutral: it regulates by accountability, not by the nature of the actor. The full text, actuarial guidance, and administrative rules are on this site.

Read the statute

Fiduciary Constraint Evaluation (FCE) (Apr 2026–present)

An open-source, 33-scenario evaluation of whether language models preserve fiduciary and professional constraints under pressure, with a proof-carrying runtime layer. A write-up of the pilot lives at /evals; the code is on GitHub.

Write-upGitHub

AgentLedger (Dec 2025–present)

A tamper-evident audit-trail SDK for AI agents: a hash-chained log with Merkle roots and Ed25519 signatures, plus export formats for FINRA, HIPAA, and the EU AI Act. TypeScript, open source.
