Risks and Mitigations
| Risk | Mitigation |
|---|---|
| Model provider dependency | Model-agnostic architecture — swap any LLM without product impact |
| AI compute costs | Multi-model routing + caching + 10x/year inference cost decline |
| Competition from incumbents | 2+ year head start, patent-pending architecture, data moat |
| Slower adoption than projected | Conservative targets, 18-24 months runway, lean team |
| Key person risk | Every decision logged in MCP (10K+), architecture documented, codebase is the documentation |
