Foundational search and module platform enabling AI agents to discover, compose, and manage neurosymbolic capabilities.

Foundational Search: A dedicated search layer that indexes modules, capabilities, and artifacts so AI agents can discover relevant components at runtime or during planning.
Polyglot SDKs: Language SDK support (notably Rust SDKs) to build, register, and integrate neurosymbolic modules into agent pipelines and services.
Module CLI Management: Command-line tools for module lifecycle tasks—publishing, versioning, dependency resolution, and module snapshots for reproducible deployments.
Snapshot Tooling: Snapshot CLI for capturing module states and dependencies to enable reproducible rollbacks and audited deployments of agent stacks.
Installer Integration: Packaging formulas and installers (Homebrew, Scoop) to simplify local developer setup and runtime installation on developer machines and CI.
Module Ecosystem & Specs: A module specification and repository model that standardizes how cognitive, symbolic, and neural components are described and consumed.
Trust & Verification Primitives: Built-in emphasis on versioning, provenance, and auditable snapshots to improve reliability and governance of neurosymbolic agents.
Foundational search for agent knowledge
Indexing and retrieval for agent workflows
API access for integrations
Documentation and terms of service referencing subscriptions/billing
Foundational search functionality targeted at AI agents

Agent Capability Discovery: Allow autonomous agents to query a searchable registry to locate vetted neurosymbolic modules (e.g., planners, perception connectors) during task planning.
Building Neurosymbolic Pipelines: Developers assemble pipelines combining neural components and symbolic logic using SDKs and module specs to create explainable agent behaviors.
Module Lifecycle Management: Teams publish, version, and snapshot modules via the CLI to ensure reproducible experiment runs and safe rollouts to production agents.
Edge and Developer Deployment: Use Homebrew/Scoop installers or packaged snapshots to rapidly provision developer machines or edge nodes with specific module sets.
Auditability & Governance: Capture module snapshots and provenance for compliance, postmortem analysis, and to enable trusted rollbacks after model or module updates.
Integration with Rust Workflows: Rust developers build high-performance modules using the ASIMOV Rust SDK and manage them via the platform CLIs.
Provide retrieval/knowledge access to autonomous agents
Index and surface documents for agent decision-making
Integrate search into multi-agent systems and pipelines
Provide retrieval/search primitives for autonomous agents to obtain context and knowledge during decision-making

Audits whether AI crawlers and assistants can actually read your website, then tracks how often they mention your brand.

AI Readiness Audit: Scores a public URL across 106 checks in six categories — crawlability, structured data, entity clarity, content structure, answerability and trust signals — for a readiness score out of 100.
Served-vs-Rendered Comparison: Measures how much of the browser-rendered page survives a fetch-only request, flagging JavaScript-dependent content that non-rendering AI crawlers never see.
AI Crawler Access Checks: Reports robots.txt, canonicals, redirects and status codes specifically for AI crawlers such as OAI-SearchBot, not just traditional search bots.
UX Review with Developer Brief: Runs a separate usability pass with visual layout analysis on paid plans and produces a copyable brief a developer can work straight from.
Saved Action Plans: Keeps an audit as a private baseline, lets you rank findings by priority, and records implementation progress against it.
Generated Fixes and Verification: Premium plans generate implementation guidance for a selected finding and verify the change against a fresh audit rather than trusting a checkbox.
AI Answer Snapshots: Asks the same five core questions weekly with three samples each, deciding by majority whether the brand is named, and charts the trend against tracked competitors.
Programmable Surface: A public REST API, CLI and MCP server let audits run inside CI/CD pipelines or be called directly by AI agents.

AI Search Readiness: Find out why an AI assistant summarizes a competitor's page instead of yours and fix the specific access or rendering issue behind it.
Pre-Launch QA: Audit a new marketing site before launch to catch blocked crawlers, missing markup and unreadable server-rendered content.
CI/CD Regression Guards: Call the REST API or CLI on every deploy so a rendering change that hides content from crawlers fails the build.
Brand Monitoring: Track weekly whether AI assistants name your brand in answers to the questions your buyers actually ask.
Agency Reporting: Produce white-label PDF audits and score comparisons for client sites on the Partner plan.
Content Restructuring: Use heading/body agreement and attribution checks to rewrite pages into retrievable, quotable sections.
