The Native & Embedded framework

One distinction organizes the whole market.

Most "AI landscapes" are logo soups. The Atlas asks a structural question of every product, then places it on one of two panels. The answer is transparent and contestable.

NATIVE

The AI is the product.

Remove the models and there is nothing left. AI-first tools built from the ground up around foundation models, agents, and inference.

Agent Platforms & Frameworks 13

Frontier & Open Models 18

Vertical Applications (Legal, Health, FS…) 36

EMBEDDED

The AI is inside the product..

An established platform that predates the AI and runs without it, with copilots and agents layered on top. Placed by the host software it augments.

Open the Atlas

Why the Atlas is different

A method you can audit, not a marketing chart.

Every placement is sourced

607 cited sources back the classifications, at least two per product. Nothing sits on the map without evidence you can check.

Consistency-checked

A published methodology and five tests decide each product. The implied and recorded panels are reconciled continuously, with the single edge case documented in the open.

A living map

The market moves weekly. New products, agents, and acquisitions are added and re-classified as they ship, not frozen in a quarterly PDF.
