Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 40 stories with headroom

What would move Gram (Speakeasy)’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.

  1. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productDelegate tasks to a built-in AI assistant inside the product

    partialq3/10moves Built-in AIimpact 31.5

    Missing: evidence of a general task-delegation assistant experience beyond the testing/playground harness, independent corroboration of its use, and any framing of it as a primary product feature rather than a dev-testing tool.

  2. Automation depth — how much of the product can run unattendedDefine rules that trigger actions automatically on events

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Gram's evidence covers governance, observability, tool logging, RBAC, and MCP server management, but there is no mention of user-definable rule/trigger systems that automatically fire actions in response to events (e.g., event-driven automation, if-this-then-that rules, webhooks-to-action).

  3. Hosted servers — stories about hosted servers in this arenaReach a deep catalog of third-party apps and APIs (hundreds to thousands of integrations) through the platform

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Gram's documented model is generating MCP servers from your own OpenAPI/TypeScript source or governing a third-party MCP server you already run — there is no evidence of a pre-built catalog of hundreds/thousands of ready-made third-party app/API integrations comparable to a connector marketplace.

  4. Openness — open source, data portability, and self-hosting storiesExport all of my data in open formats and leave

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    The evidence describes Gram's inputs (OpenAPI specs, SKILL.md manifests) and platform features like RBAC, logging, and CLI, but there is no documented data-export feature letting a user pull out their configured toolsets, logs, policies, or org data in open formats to migrate away.

  5. Openness — open source, data portability, and self-hosting storiesSelf-host the core product

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    While Gram's code is hosted on GitHub (gram-gh-1, gram-gh-2), the evidence pack contains no documentation, guide, or deployment instructions describing a supported self-hosted deployment of the core Control Plane — all docs describe the hosted SaaS platform, dashboard, and CLI/skill features rather than self-hosting.

  6. Auth credentials — stories about auth credentials in this arenaMaintain separate connected accounts and scoped tokens per end user of my product, so each user's agent acts only on that user's credentials

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Missing: explicit documentation of per-end-user connected-account/token scoping, any multi-tenant credential isolation guide, and evidence of enforcement that one end user's agent cannot use another's credentials.

  7. Privacy posture — data-handling and privacy storiesPrevent my data from being used to train AI models

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Missing: any data-training policy statement, opt-out controls, or model-training disclosure.

  8. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productGet AI-generated insights and suggestions from my data inside the product

    nonemoves Built-in AIimpact 30

    Gram provides observability data (tool logs, usage/cost tracking, budgets) but there is no evidence that it generates AI-driven insights or suggestions from that data — it's raw logs and metrics for humans to review, not AI-generated analysis.
