Track; not yet

Why: The feature pattern (policy-scoped tools, pre-launch sims/evals, automated grading, human escalation, Codex-powered production-improvement loop) is a strong signal of where enterprise agent governance is heading, but the current delivery model — non-self-serve, forward-deployed-engineer-led, undisclosed pricing, customers still in pilot — makes direct adoption premature for a startup; value today is architectural reference, not integration.
Next: Re-evaluate in Q4 2026 once self-serve access, an API/SDK surface, and public pricing are disclosed; in the meantime, mine Presence's guardrail + simulation/eval + Codex-driven post-launch improvement-loop pattern as a design reference for our own BIL/trust-authority agent-governance work rather than pursuing direct adoption.
