The interoperability layer: how MCP registries are becoming the discovery surface for buy-side research vendors
Vendor selection is migrating from procurement RFPs to agent-runtime endpoint resolution, and the registry is where placement is decided.

Investigations, data reports, deep dives, and analysis from the INFLXD newsroom.

C2PA-style content credentials are moving from newsroom deepfake defense into buy-side research infrastructure. The transcript vendors that ship signed manifests will own the compliance conversation for agent-mediated research.

As agents pull from earnings and expert calls through the Model Context Protocol, the next provenance layer the buy-side will demand is a citation that resolves to a specific second of source audio.

A $47M Series C and a published accuracy gap sharpen the argument that the data layer, not the model, is now the binding constraint on agent-driven research.

Human-in-the-loop AI isn't a fallback for financial transcription. It's a quality architecture that targets review where ASR fails most: entities, numbers, and names.

Expert network transcription demands more than generic ASR. Learn why speaker diarisation, MNPI compliance, and domain accuracy define transcript quality for expert calls.

Sub-5% WER on conversational benchmarks is impressive. It's also irrelevant to the part of the workflow that matters.
