posit.co scored 0/10 on privacy. AILANG opportunity is therefore 10/10. Here's where it would land first.

Information-flow labels on customer data

Mark fields containing PII at the type level. The compiler refuses to let a labelled value reach a public sink without an explicit Declassify boundary. Privacy by type, not by code review.

type Customer = {
  email:    string<pii>,
  postcode: string<pii>,
  signupDate: string
}
-- assigning customer.email to a log line is a type error.

→ AILANG docs

Capability scoping

A function declares the network endpoints, file paths, and AI providers it touches. Anything outside the declaration is rejected by the runtime. "This part of the system can talk to Stripe; it cannot talk to anyone else" is enforced.

func chargeCard(c: Card) -> Result[Receipt, Error]
  ! {Net @endpoint="api.stripe.com", AI @limit=0}

→ AILANG docs

Three-runtime deploy

The same module runs in the browser via WASM, on Cloud Run, and as a native binary. Sensitive workflows can stay in the user's tab — no server ever sees the data.

-- Browser: load AILANG WASM, run the module in the user's tab.
-- Cloud Run: same .ail file packaged as a container.
-- Native CLI: same .ail file, ailang run.

How this page was made

func sketchSite(url: string<pii>, topic: Topic) -> Sketch ! {Net @limit=1, AI @limit=5, FS @limit=4, Process, Declassify}

Read your site once. No second fetch, no crawl.

Up to five AI calls, capped. No runaway analysis.

Four file writes. The report, the topic index, the rubric breakdown, the queue ack. Nothing else touched.

Process invokes docparse for structured extraction. The capability is visible in the type.

Your URL crossed Declassify. No PII survives into this page.

Signal	Topic	Result	Points	AILANG primitive
agent.json referenced	agent-ready	✗	0/1	ailang serve-api generates A2A agent cards automatically — bonus if you're an early adopter
openapi.json referenced	agent-ready	✗	0/2	ailang serve-api generates OpenAPI 3.1 from Hindley-Milner type signatures
MCP endpoint referenced	agent-ready	✗	0/2	ailang serve-api --mcp-http exposes typed functions as MCP tools
Public API docs linked	agent-ready	✗	0/2	ailang serve-api hosts Swagger + ReDoc at /api/_meta/ by default
Webhooks documented	agent-ready	✗	0/2	ailang serve-api handles webhooks as typed handler functions with effect-tracked side effects
Rate limits documented	agent-ready	✓	2/2	Capability budgets — Net @limit=N is the symmetric server-side primitive for what agents see as rate limits
Streaming / SSE endpoint	agent-ready	✗	0/2	std/stream — ssePost and Stream effect handle event-source endpoints with typed event types
Sandbox / test environment offered	agent-ready	✗	0/2	ailang --ai-stub plus mock effect handlers — deterministic, capability-scoped fakes for any effect, including Net and AI
Authentication documented	agent-ready	✗	0/2	std/jwt for verification, IFC labels (string / string) to keep credentials out of public sinks at the type level
Idempotency keys documented	agent-ready	✗	0/2	Pure functions are idempotent by construction; requires/ensures contracts express idempotence as a static guarantee
AG-UI streaming protocol	agent-ready	✗	0/1	std/stream — the AG-UI event lifecycle (RUN_STARTED → TEXT_MESSAGE_CONTENT → TOOL_CALL_RESULT → RUN_FINISHED) is a textbook sum type. ADTs + exhaustive pattern matching make every event-type branch a compile error to skip.
HTTP 402 agent payments (x402 / pay-per-crawl)	agent-ready	✗	0/1	Net @endpoint-scoped capability budgets bound payment destinations; requires { amount <= budget } gates the payload; IFC labels keep the signed payment key out of public sinks. Same primitives cover x402 payload signing and Cloudflare's crawler-price negotiation.
AP2 Agent Payments Protocol	agent-ready	✗	0/1	Mandates ARE contracts. requires { intent.price <= mandate.maxPrice } + ensures { cart.total <= intent.price } is a one-to-one translation of an Intent/Cart Mandate into AILANG. Z3 can verify the bounds at compile time.
UTCP tool-calling protocol	agent-ready	✗	0/1	Typed function signatures are the manifest. ailang serve-api emits the same metadata as a UTCPManual (name, input/output schema, native endpoint) — direct-call discovery without a proxy server.
End-to-end encryption documented	privacy	✗	0/2	IFC labels (string) force decryption to flow through a typed boundary; the compiler refuses to publish sealed values without explicit declassification
Compliance certifications cited	privacy	✗	0/2	requires/ensures contracts express machine-verifiable claims; capability budgets bound audit-trail effects; effect rows leave nothing un-declared
Data minimisation language	privacy	✗	0/2	Capability scoping — each Net call declares its endpoint in the effect row, so "doesn't sell" becomes a type-system-enforceable claim, not a marketing one
Third-party domains restrained	privacy	✗	0/2	Capability scoping — each Net call declares its endpoint in the effect row
Data residency / on-prem language	privacy	✗	0/2	Three-runtime deploy — same module runs in WASM (browser), Cloud Run, and native CLI
Single-vendor LLM language	portable	○	2/2	std/ai multi-provider — switch from Anthropic to Gemini to OpenAI without rewriting
Multiple AI providers cited	portable	✗	0/2	std/ai — one Step API across Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter, Ollama, and custom-package providers
Cross-runtime / deployment portability	portable	✗	0/2	Effect handlers as runtime adapters — same .ail runs as WASM in the browser, a Cloud Run container, and a native CLI; only the handlers change
BYO key / model-agnostic	portable	✗	0/2	AILANG WASM — the full interpreter ships as a browser bundle, so caller-held keys (BYOK), offline apps, and embedded demos all work client-side
