The AI Capacity Provider Standard

Organizations that consume AI capacity from more than one source face an immediate and largely unexamined measurement problem: the units in which that capacity is metered — tokens, requests, GPU-hours, invocations, retrieval calls — are defined by their issuers, priced by their i...

Verified Synthesis: From Agent Fan-Out to One Accountable Result

Organizations that dispatch one bounded request to several AI capacity providers receive back a set of outputs that partially agree, materially conflict, omit different evidence, and sometimes fail outright. This paper examines why possession of that fan-out set is not the same t...

ARBITER Policy Reference Architecture

This paper proposes a reference architecture for ARBITER, the workload-authority and policy-routing member of the SkipJack Cognitive Exchange. It addresses one bounded question: what minimum functional stack could determine authority before optimization, issue a bounded route gra...

PRETIUM Market: The Economics of Cognitive Capacity

Organizations that buy AI capacity now purchase across model APIs, hosted inference, rented and preemptible GPU capacity, tool and retrieval services, and private local execution — capacity classes whose native meters do not share a unit, whose prices do not encode eligibility, a...

NIMBUS Connect: Governed Execution Across Heterogeneous AI Capacity

Organizations that purchase artificial-intelligence capacity increasingly face a boundary problem: an authority layer may decide what work is eligible and issue a bounded grant, and an economic layer may commit a bounded budget against that grant, but the work must still be execu...

NIMBUS Connect Reference Architecture

Heterogeneous artificial-intelligence work can cross local accelerators, remote model interfaces, private inference services, tools, protocol servers, rented capacity, and dedicated systems without becoming one homogeneous resource. That diversity creates a recurring architectura...

Stater Currency Architecture

Governed purchase of heterogeneous AI capacity creates an accounting problem that is easy to misname and therefore easy to mis-build. When an organization reserves bounded budgets against nonfungible capacity offers, commits value to execution it does not control, and must later...

Authority Before Optimization: Governing AI Capacity Selection

Organizations that buy artificial-intelligence capacity increasingly choose among heterogeneous routes to the same outcome: hosted model interfaces, private inference, rented accelerator time, tool and retrieval services, and local execution. The machinery that compares those rou...

The SkipJack Cognitive Exchange Suite: Six Bounded Contracts for Accountable Consumption of Heterogeneous AI Capacity

Organizations that consume artificial-intelligence capacity increasingly face a supply landscape that is materially heterogeneous: model APIs, tool services, retrieval endpoints, rented accelerators, and private inference profiles are metered, priced, capability-bounded, and cont...

From ISO/IEC 42001 to the EU AI Act: Mapping the Residual Compliance Work

Mapping residual EU AI Act compliance work after leading AI governance frameworks. Compares a multi-ISO stack (ISO/IEC 42001 and companions, including ISO 37301), IAPP AIGP and CIPP/E, and the NIST AI RMF (with generative-AI profile). By article-normalized weight, about 58% of th...
