The independent trust standard for AI agents.
Millions of AI agents.
Zero independent oversight.
Autonomous AI systems are making decisions with real money, real data, and real consequences. They approve loans, triage medical inquiries, execute trades, and manage infrastructure. Yet there is no independent body verifying whether these agents are safe, reliable, or fit for purpose. Developers grade their own homework.
Pipkin exists to change that.
Why Independent Evaluation Matters
Developer Self-Assessment
AI companies evaluate their own agents and publish the results. The conflict of interest is structural — no company will voluntarily report that its product is unsafe. Marketing materials replace safety documentation. Benchmark scores measure capability, not trustworthiness.
Academic Benchmarks
Existing benchmarks like MMLU and HellaSwag test model knowledge, not agent behavior. They measure whether a model can answer questions — not whether a deployed agent will write a fraudulent legal contract, ignore contradictory data, or cave to a prompt injection attack.
Pipkin
Independent evaluation of deployed AI agents against a standardized framework. 5 pillars. 20 metrics. 41 adversarial test vectors. Standardized testing that every agent receives identically. Published scores. No conflicts of interest. The same methodology whether you are OpenAI or a solo developer.
The Five Pillars of Trust
Every Pipkin evaluation measures an AI agent across five dimensions of trustworthiness.
Decision Accuracy
Correctness, consistency, and calibration of agent outputs.
Failure Containment
Error detection speed and ability to prevent cascading damage.
Boundary Discipline
Strict adherence to defined scope and epistemic humility.
Auditability
Traceability and transparency of decision reasoning.
Adversarial Resistance
Resilience against injection, poisoning, and social engineering.
