Our POV
A world where any AI-generated investment opinion can be checked in 5 seconds — by anyone, with provenance.
Year 5 self-definition
“AIRVS is the citation vocabulary for verified AI investment opinions — the way the Morningstar Rating became the vocabulary for verified mutual funds.”
The seasons
A decade, one season at a time
The first year of Recommendation Provenance — 1 verified AI call to 1 URL.
10 AI providers' annual report cards published.
The comparison vocabulary of AI investment opinions.
Adopted as de facto disclosure vocabulary under K-AI Act / EU AI Act.
The AIRVS Citation Index becomes a recognized academic indicator.
Scenario matrix
Does the vision survive every future?
Two axes — regulatory intensity and market concentration — define four futures. The vision shines in Q1 and Q2; it is harder, but more valuable, in Q3 and Q4.
Fragmented market
Light regulation, many providers
AIRVS is the comparison standard buyers reach for first.
Compliance market
Heavy regulation, many providers
AIRVS is a ready-made compliance and auditing tool.
Feudal market
Light regulation, Big Tech oligopoly
AIRVS is an external check — harder to land, high value.
Cartel market
Heavy regulation, Big Tech oligopoly
AIRVS risks being absorbed into a government tool — weakest case.
Kill triggers
When we redesign — in the open
- —Fewer than 5 providers verified by month 12 triggers a market-not-formed review (Q0).
- —Fewer than 3 external citations in Year 1 means the vision is redesigned, publicly.
- —Worst-case scenarios D to G have a written response manual, not silence.
