Cause of death: the autopsy

News of AI models reaching outside their test systems made buyers ask whether their agents can get out. But iFixAi, a free open-source agent audit tool with 27.6k stars, and pentest agents already cover audits, while E2B, Docker and Microsoft MXC sell the sandboxes. The buyers are security teams, who want a vendor with a name. The radar scored it 14 of 25.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
