CompliAgents

A compliance workflow built from small signed agents, paid only when the job is verified. Here is the math on one example filing.

What it is

CompliAgents is a proposed SaaS: a library of narrow compliance agents (look up the rule, fill the form, check the vendor, write the audit trail) that a compliance team chains into one workflow. Each agent's output is signed, each agent carries a track-record score, and the customer pays only when the whole job is verified as done.

The demo builds one example workflow, an import-permit filing. It shows two things: how chaining agents multiplies their error rates, and what pay-only-on-success pricing does to margin.

Claimed by the proposal, not verified

"Domain-trained" agents for cross-border trade, pharma and energy permits. None exist in the fleet today.
Reputation scores "derived from domain-adjudicated outcomes". Who adjudicates, and how fast, is not said.
"Provable agent accountability". A signature proves who produced an output, not that it is correct.
No market size, pricing or customer evidence was given. All numbers on this page are examples.

What to try

Set the reviewer to 0%. Four agents at 93–98% each give a chain that succeeds only about 83% of the time, so one filing in six earns nothing.
Lower the price to $50 and raise cost to $60. Margin turns negative, because failed attempts still cost compute and review.
Remove a stage. Fewer links is the cheapest way to raise chain success.
A real build would need one narrow vertical, a licensed human sign-off, and a liability position before any pay-on-success contract.
