- Target users: eval engineers at AI labs, security and platform engineers, benchmark maintainers, and 2–50 person teams running high-privilege coding or cyber agents.

Competitive Landscape

  • [Orchesis](https://orchesis.ai/scan) offers a free, open-source, browser-based AI-agent configuration scanner covering Docker, network, permissions, MCP, and IDE configuration. A new product cannot win by claiming “more checks.”
  • [AgentSeal](https://agentseal.org/) covers prompts, MCP servers, skills, and runtime surfaces; [Cisco AI Defense](https://cisco-ai-defense.github.io/docs/ai-security-scanner) has enterprise trust and IDE distribution.
  • [SecureBench](https://www.securebench.org/) already targets agentic benchmark answer isolation, dual sandboxes, egress rules, and trusted scoring, making it the closest conceptual competitor.
  • [Trivy](https://www.trivy.dev/) and Checkov cover general IaC and container misconfiguration; this product must not duplicate their complete rule sets.
  • [HopX](https://www.hopx.ai/) and Declaw sell secure runtimes rather than independent verification. They are both alternatives and potential future partners or recommendations.
  • The proposed gap is verifying that a model-evaluation sandbox's declared boundary matches its observed boundary, combining configuration-line evidence with safe probes and focused remediation for package proxies, egress, answer isolation, and credentials. This gap is still observed + inferred, not payment-validated.

Differentiation Opportunity

- **Two evidence layers**: deterministic static configuration evidence plus a non-destructive probe running in the user's environment.

Why Build This

  • Target users: eval engineers at AI labs, security and platform engineers, benchmark maintainers, and 2–50 person teams running high-privilege coding or cyber agents.
  • Before running capable models, they need to know whether the sandbox truly has no internet, whether a package proxy is an exit, whether credentials or metadata are visible, whether shared host paths are writable, and whether an agent can influence answers or future host inputs.
  • General scanners can detect privileged: true, but may not compare a declared evaluation boundary to an observed reachable path.

What to Build

Target User

eval engineers at AI labs, security and platform engineers, benchmark maintainers, and 2–50 person AI teams running coding or cyber agents.

Core Function

find unintended egress, package-proxy escape paths, credential or metadata exposure, host mounts, privileged settings, shared paths, and logging blind spots.

Differentiation

- **Two evidence layers**: deterministic static configuration evidence plus a non-destructive probe running in the user's environment.

How to Build (8h MVP)

Next.js + Tailwind CSS

8h MVP Checklist

  1. 1.Define the threat model, supported files, 25–35 rules, severity criteria, and safe fixtures; write rule tests first.
  2. 2.Build ZIP/text input, parsing, line mapping, secret masking, and static findings.
  3. 3.Build the Result UI, evidence/remediation presentation, and Markdown/JSON/SARIF exports.
  4. 4.Build the safe probe, versioned result schema, upload/merge flow, and static/runtime mismatch logic.
  5. 5.Build Home, Example, About, FAQ, and privacy/liability copy.
  6. 6.Add the `$99 paid pilot` Payment Link and funnel events.
  7. 7.Run build, fixture regression, size/format error, mobile, and SEO checks before launch.

Risks

  • **Competition**: free scanners, Cisco, Trivy, Checkov, and SecureBench already occupy the market. Stay focused on evaluation-sandbox boundary evidence.
  • **Trust**: a new security brand lacks credibility. Public rules, fixtures, versioning, and limitations are launch requirements.
  • **False positives**: configuration-only scanning will misfire; use runtime probes and explicit `unknown / needs review` states.
  • **Liability**: the report is not a penetration test, certification, or absolute guarantee. Never run destructive payloads.
  • **Acquisition**: the primary query may be small, so SEO confidence is medium-low. Stop if targeted outreach cannot produce a paid pilot.
  • **Portfolio**: the tool is adjacent to recent checker/security assets. If it becomes another Markdown report generator, it is meaningless duplication.
