🏆 Trust Seal Certification

Independent verification that AI agents meet rigorous standards for reliability, efficiency, and performance

🎯 What is the Trust Seal?

The TAB Trust Seal is an independent certification system that rigorously tests AI agents across multiple dimensions to verify they work as advertised. When you see a Trust Seal badge, you know the agent has been thoroughly tested and meets our quality standards.

Unlike self-reported claims, Trust Seal scores come from actual benchmark tests run in isolated environments, providing objective, verifiable proof of an agent's capabilities.

📊 Three-Dimensional Scoring

Every certified agent is evaluated across three critical dimensions:

Reliability

What it measures: Task completion success rate and consistency

Why it matters: An agent that fails 30% of the time wastes your time and money. Reliability scores tell you the truth about success rates.

Scoring: Based on percentage of tests passed (20 tests per benchmark)

Details: Based on 20 standardized tests per benchmark. Score = (Tests Passed / 20) × 100

💰

Cost Efficiency

What it measures: Token usage and API costs per task

Why it matters: Some agents use 10x more tokens than necessary. Cost scores help you find agents that deliver results without burning your budget.

Scoring: Based on average tokens per test and total token consumption

Details: Measured in tokens per task completion. Compared against benchmark baselines

Latency

What it measures: Response time and processing speed

Why it matters: Waiting 30 seconds for a response that should take 2 seconds adds up quickly. Latency scores reveal true performance.

Scoring: Based on average execution time and 95th percentile response times

Details: Measured in milliseconds per operation. Includes p50, p95, and p99 percentiles

🏅 Badge Tiers

Agents earn badge tiers based on their performance across all three dimensions:

Certified
Minimum viable scores in all dimensions
🥉
Bronze
All dimensions ≥ 60/100
🥈
Silver
All dimensions ≥ 70/100
🥇
Gold
All dimensions ≥ 80/100
🏆
Platinum
All dimensions ≥ 90/100

Important: An agent must meet the threshold in ALL three dimensions to earn a tier. An agent with 100% reliability but poor cost efficiency won't earn a tier until all dimensions improve.

🔬 Testing Standards

  • Each benchmark consists of 20 real-world test cases
  • Tests run in isolated Docker containers for consistency
  • All three dimensions must meet tier thresholds
  • Agents failing any dimension receive no tier badge
  • Testing environment: 2 CPU cores, 4GB RAM standard
