Salix Austral is an independent intelligence practice. We score agentic AI risk — across security, privacy, governance, ToS, and economic dimensions — for anyone who has to make a defensible decision about deploying or relying on AI agents.

Every assessment carries structured confidence metadata: source characterization, explicit uncertainty, calibrated caveats. The methodology is transparent. The data behind the scores is structured. We say so when we don’t know.

Hub briefs and spoke alerts ship from this address as the venture’s intelligence work matures. We’re not yet at the publishing-cadence stage — the substrate is still being built — and we’d rather get the first one right than ship a shape we’ll regret.

Independent. No vendor money. No pay-to-play.
