You wouldn't wire a contractor's bank account directly to your payroll system without checking their credit history first. But that's essentially what we're doing with AI agents today. Agents are being deployed to negotiate contracts, execute purchases, manage subscriptions, and handle financial workflows - at machine speed, without human review, at scale. And there is currently no infrastructure to answer the most basic question: is this agent economically reliable? The AXIS C-Score is built to answer that question.
