Imvara

Diagnose Buying Problem

Diagnoses a buyer's problem description against the Buyer's Guide problem taxonomy. Returns the likely problem type, related frameworks, likely provider categories, what should not be bought yet, and evidence needed before procurement. Uses deterministic keyword matching, not semantic reasoning. If the description does not match any problem type with sufficient confidence, says so rather than fabricating a diagnosis.

Find Provider Categories

Returns provider categories relevant to a given problem type, job type, or access path. Returns what each category solves, what it does not solve, and dependencies. Does not rank providers or recommend a specific vendor.

Get Evaluation Criteria

Returns canonical evaluation criteria with buyer questions, evidence requirements, strong/weak answers, warning signs, and falsifiers. Supports filtering by provider category, domain, problem type, readiness condition, and access path. These criteria are the canonical evaluation layer used by the human Guide, JSON, and MCP.

Generate Rfp Questions

Generates structured RFP questions aligned to evaluation criteria. Each question includes the criterion ID, buyer question, why it matters, evidence requested, strong answer, weak answer, warning sign, and falsifier. Questions demand evidence, not category claims.

Evaluate Vendor Claim

Evaluates a vendor claim against the TRACE-aligned evidence proof model. Returns what evidence would support the claim, what does not count as proof, the falsifier, and related TRACE logic. Does not create vendor scores or rankings.

Get Framework Guidance

Returns relevant MOM, TRACE, or Invocation Readiness guidance for a given problem, Job, or framework name. Includes the canonical framework question, what to assess about a provider, related criteria, and specification links.

Assess Readiness

Runs an Imvara Readiness assessment against a submitted domain and 1–3 Jobs. Returns the canonical structured assessment result: executive finding, job-by-job readiness, enterprise-wide patterns, Exposure Integrity findings, MOM action states, recommended capabilities, and provenance. The assessment is observation-first, distinguishes Observed/Provided/Inferred/Unknown, does not fabricate evidence, and does not produce a universal 0–100 score. Calls the dedicated Readiness Worker at readiness.im

Get Readiness Requirements

Given a Job, readiness condition, and/or access path, returns what must be true, evidence required, common failure modes, falsifiers, relevant access paths, framework mappings (MOM, TRACE, Invocation Readiness), and likely MOM actions. Does not assess a specific enterprise — it returns the canonical requirements for a readiness condition in the context of a Job.

Get Evaluation Domains

Returns the Agentic Intelligence evaluation domains from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by readiness stage. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to understand which evaluation domains are relevant to their stage of agentic readiness. Supports simple keyword matching against domain names and descriptions via the buyerObjective parameter — this is deterministic keyword matching, not semantic reasoning.

Get Rfp Questions

Returns RFP questions from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by evaluation domain or readiness stage. Use when an enterprise buyer needs vendor-evaluation questions associated with one or more Agentic Intelligence evaluation domains or readiness stages. It retrieves questions from the Buyer's Guide. It does not evaluate a vendor's response.

Get Expected Deliverables

Returns the expected deliverables from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by readiness stage and/or evaluation domains. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to know what deliverables to expect from a provider at a given readiness stage or for specific evaluation domains. Does not claim a deliverable is universally required unless the knowledge model says so. Does not assess deliverable quality.

Get Red Flags

Returns the red flags from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by evaluation domain. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to know what warning signs to watch for when evaluating an Agentic Intelligence provider. Does not interpret a provider's response against the red flags; that capability is deferred to a future reasoning layer.

Get Buying Process

Returns the 11-step buying process from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered to a specific step. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to understand the recommended process for evaluating and selecting an Agentic Intelligence provider. Does not recommend which step to start at; that requires reasoning about the enterprise's readiness stage.

Get Live Job Walkthrough

Returns the 9-step live Job walkthrough structure from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered to a specific step. The canonical sequence is: Expression, Job, Requirements, Evidence, Capability, Access Path, Governance, Execution, Measurement. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to understand what to ask a provider to demonstrate in a live walkthrough.

Get Buyer Checklist

Returns the buyer checklist from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by readiness stage or evaluation domain. Use when an enterprise buyer needs a pre-engagement checklist to ensure they are ready to evaluate providers. Does not assess whether the enterprise has completed the checklist; that requires reasoning about the enterprise's state.

Get Provider Types

Returns the provider types from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by evaluation domain. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to understand the categories of providers in the Agentic Intelligence market. All language is vendor-neutral. Does not rank provider types or recommend a combination; that requires reasoning about the enterprise's specific needs.

Get Vendor Response Template

Returns the standardized vendor response template fields from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by evaluation domain. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to structure a vendor RFP response template. Does not evaluate a vendor's response against the template; that requires reasoning.

Get Scorecard Criteria

Returns the evaluation scorecard criteria from Imvara's Buyer's Guide, optionally filtered by evaluation domain. Use when an enterprise buyer needs to build a scorecard for evaluating providers. Does not calculate vendor scores or recommend weights. The tool exposes the buying standard; it does not perform reasoning.
