Jace Randolph
Founder
Jace Randolph is the founder and creator of TRA-CE.ai, a United States Air Force veteran, and a cybersecurity builder whose best lessons came from places most resumes politely avoid.
Before he was helping secure systems, Jace spent time on the wrong side of them. That past gave him a practical education in how attackers think, where systems bend, and how quickly confidence turns into exposure when nobody can prove what happened. He carried that experience forward, chose the defensive side of the work, and built a career around making fragile systems more honest, more visible, and harder to manipulate.
TRA-CE was born from that same obsession with proof. After years spent around security, automation, compliance, and AI systems that too often relied on hand-waving, Jace started building the thing he wished existed: a way to trace claims back to evidence, surface weak links, and make trust something you can inspect.
For him, this moment matters because AI is now being asked to influence decisions that affect money, safety, infrastructure, and people’s lives. TRA-CE is his answer to that pressure: a system built from long nights, hard lessons, and the belief that if software is going to make a claim, it should be ready to show its work.
