Seed thesis

• The mess: Evidence scattered across teams; recurring sign-off chasing; control-mapping; audit-trail assembly.
• Why now: Webhook + audit + signing + explainability-gate patterns fit; agents can collect evidence and route attestations.
• The money: Recurring revenue; growing compliance burden.
• Whitespace: Crowded (Vanta, Drata); enterprise sales cycle; agentic evidence-collection angle is open.
