Scientia Ex Machina

The Trust Layer for AI Skills

Rigorous, independent certification for AI skills. Three-pillar evaluation (functional verification, security audit, performance benchmarking). Like SSL certificates, but for AI. NIST AI Risk Management Framework aligned.

The Problem

The AI agent ecosystem is exploding. Thousands of skills, plugins, and tools are being built every week. But there's no way to know which ones are safe. No independent testing. No security audits. No performance benchmarks. Users install AI skills on blind faith.

This is the SSL problem all over again. Before SSL certificates, every website was "trust me." Now every browser shows a padlock. AI skills need the same thing.

The Solution

Rigorous, independent certification for AI skills. Three-pillar evaluation (functional verification, security audit, performance benchmarking). Like SSL certificates, but for AI. NIST AI Risk Management Framework aligned.

What's Needed

This is where the operator comes in. Here's what you'd focus on:

Platform partnerships (AI agent frameworks, IDE extensions)
Developer community marketing
Certification pipeline scaling
Enterprise sales (companies wanting verified AI skills)

Ideal Operator

Someone with developer tools, DevOps, or AI/ML ecosystem experience who understands trust and compliance.

The Opportunity

MARKET AND GROWTH

AI agent market projected to reach $65B+ by 2028. No established certification standard exists yet. First-mover advantage in trust and compliance for AI. Enterprise buyers will require verified AI skills for compliance and procurement. NIST alignment positions for government and regulated industry adoption.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Nothing directly comparable. Some platforms have internal review processes but no independent, cross-platform certification exists. This is a category creator.
