Bidda is the world's first source-verified, cryptographically-signed compliance intelligence registry. 10085 regulatory frameworks across 39 sovereign pillars, including EU AI Act, GDPR, NIST AI RMF, Basel III, HIPAA, DORA, and 150+ others, distilled into machine-executable logic at $0.01 per node.

How does Bidda reduce AI hallucination in compliance?

Every Bidda node is generated from and verified against its primary legal source, meaning the actual legislation, standard, or regulatory instrument. Each node carries a SHA-256 integrity hash and passes a 13-point validation gate and human review before publishing. No secondary commentary. No AI inference without a regulatory anchor.

What does it cost to access Bidda compliance nodes?

$0.01 USDC per full node unlock via Skyfire bearer token, Direct Base USDC, or L402/USDC on Base. The discovery API is free. Pillar bundles are one-time frozen snapshots ranging from $5 (Workflow) to $49 (Cybersecurity / Legal / Finance). A MITRE Frameworks cross-cut bundle (ATT&CK + ATLAS + D3FEND + CAPEC, 204 nodes) is $29. Full registry: enterprise plans only (info@bidda.com). Card checkout via Paystack is coming soon; until live, fiat purchases are invoiced on request.

Which regulations does Bidda cover?

10085 nodes across 39 sovereign pillars, covering EU AI Act, GDPR, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, Basel III/IV, HIPAA, DORA, NIS2, FATF, MiCA, TCFD, SOC 2, ITAR, IMO MARPOL, Solvency II, OECD BEPS Pillar Two, and 150+ other global regulatory frameworks.

Is there a free tool to scan my AI agent code for compliance issues?

Yes. The Bidda Agent Compliance Scanner is a free GitHub Action that scans your PR diffs for AI agent code patterns (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, MCP tool definitions, biometric identification, credit decisioning, HR screening, DORA ICT dependencies) and posts an advisory PR comment linking the relevant compliance nodes from the Bidda registry. It never blocks PRs. Install with: uses: Bidda-Ai/agent-compliance-scanner@v0. Available at https://bidda.com/developers - also distributed as the bidda-shield Python SDK (pip install bidda-shield) and as an MCP server at https://bidda.com/mcp for AI agents.

Does the Bidda compliance scanner send my code to external servers?

No. All pattern matching runs locally on your GitHub-hosted runner. The scanner only sends a pattern_id (e.g. 'langchain-import') to query Bidda's public discovery index. Your code, prompts, diffs, and repo contents never leave your runner. The PR comment is posted using your workflow's built-in GITHUB_TOKEN.

What MITRE CWE-798 - Use of Hard-coded Credentials requires

CWE-798 (Use of Hard-coded Credentials) is a CWE Top 25 weakness consistently present in firmware, IoT devices, network appliances, default-install software, and codebases that have leaked private repositories or expanded build artifacts. CWE-798 is defined as: the product contains hard-coded credentials, such as a password or cryptographic key. The Extended Description identifies two main variations. Inbound: the product includes authentication that compares input credentials against hard-coded values; a default administration account is created with a simple, unchangeable password identical across all installations. Outbound: the product connects to another system using hard-coded credentials; this commonly affects front-end systems authenticating with back-end services where fixed passwords are embedded in code. Common Consequences include access control violation (if hard-coded passwords are used, it is almost certain that malicious users will gain access to the account in question; extraction from binaries is typically simple, especially for client-side systems) and integrity, confidentiality, availability impact (this weakness can lead to the exposure of resources or functionality to unintended actors, possibly providing attackers with sensitive information or even execute arbitrary code; widespread password knowledge enables massive attacks across different organizations). Potential Mitigations include storing credentials outside code in encrypted, access-restricted configuration files or databases; implementing first login mode requiring unique strong passwords instead of defaults; applying access controls limiting which entities can access hard-coded credential features; using one-way hashes with random salts for password storage and comparison; and for front-end and back-end connections, employing auto-rotating passwords, limiting backend access scope, and implementing time-sensitive checksums. Modern mitigations include centralized secret managers (HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, GCP Secret Manager, Doppler, 1Password Secrets Automation), workload identity (mTLS, OIDC federation, cloud workload identity), short-lived dynamic credentials, and continuous secret scanning (TruffleHog, gitleaks, GitGuardian).
