AI Middleware Leadership
The AI Gold Rush created a governance crisis. This memo outlines the market, our solution, and why our 20‑year DNA is decisive.
The governance gap
- Budgetary chaos • unauthorized actions • security breaches
- Missing authorization for what agents are allowed to do
- No financial‑grade audit for decisions and spend
Create • Enforce • Prove
- Create tools once — Orchestration Service (no‑code MCP tools)
- Enforce policy everywhere — ARIA Shield + MCP Gateway
- Prove every action — Receipt Vault (cryptographic receipts)
Why us: 20‑year DNA
Connector DNA • Authorization DNA • Enforcement DNA • Audit DNA. We apply identity governance expertise to the agent era, neutral and standards‑aligned.
The opportunity
AI middleware and governance is a $100B market. EmpowerNow is universal middleware—independent of identity stacks and agent platforms.
