# Competitor Brief

## Market Overview
The agent assurance market reached an estimated **180 million GBP** in 2026, growing about **40 % year on year**. Buyers are procurement and security teams at firms deploying agents with spending or write authority. Demand is driven by questionnaires rather than regulation, though the EU Code of Practice is beginning to change that.

Three segments dominate the market:
1. **Certification of deployed agents** – independent evaluators publish research and sell judgement.
2. **Red‑team services** – consultancies sell people by the day.
3. **Platform controls** – platform vendors bundle controls with an agent runtime, while tooling vendors sell dashboards that customers run themselves.

## Pricing Landscape
The internal wiki pricing page is currently unavailable, and no alternative internal source provides up‑to‑date figures. As a result, the brief cannot present current pricing data from internal documents. If external pricing information is required, it would need to be sourced from the competitor’s own pricing page (e.g. `http://pricing.competitor.test/plans`), which is outside the scope of this brief.

## Main Players
Four groups compete in the market:
1. **Independent evaluators** – sell judgement and publish research.
2. **Tooling vendors** – sell dashboards that customers run themselves.
3. **Platform vendors** – bundle controls with an agent runtime.
4. **Consultancies** – sell people by the day.

No current provider offers an offline‑verifiable attestation of what an agent did.
