Replaced every bottom-of-section 'See also:' block with inline Org-mode file: links at the first natural mention in body text. All 29 files across the economics directory now use wiki-style inline cross-references rather than standalone reference blocks.

#+title: Evaluation Harness as Certification Service

|
#+filetags: :passepartout:revenue:certification:evaluation:regression:

|
The accumulated regression suite — thousands of edge cases from every deployed instance, every bug fix, every regulatory change — becomes the most comprehensive test of autonomous agent correctness.
|
|
|
|
**Service:** "Run our 10,000-task suite against your AI agent and get a Merkle-verified score."
|
|
**Target:** AI labs proving their agents' capabilities, enterprise procurement requiring independent verification.
|
|
**Price:** $50K-$200K per certification.
|
|
|
|
The regression suite grows with every deployment, making the certification increasingly valuable over time. The early player's suite is the largest because they started first. This is the [[file:collective-regression-suite.org][collective regression suite]] mechanism in action.

|
|
|
10 certifications in year one = $500K-$2M.

Long-term endpoint: this becomes the UL certification for AI — a third-party verification nobody can ignore. [[file:verification-monopoly.org][The verification monopoly]]. The certification relies on a [[file:verification-appliance.org][verification appliance]] to run the tests in a trusted environment, creating [[file:infrastructure-lock-in.org][infrastructure lock-in]] as certification history accumulates on the platform. These dynamics form powerful [[file:moats.org][moats]].
