Why this is canonical

'Decision lineage' applies the lineage concept — central to data governance and AI accountability — to the decision itself. As AI systems make high-stakes decisions, understanding their lineage becomes a prerequisite for audit, compliance, and trust. The .ai TLD marks this as the AI-era position.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

AI audit and explainability
Infrastructure for reconstructing the complete lineage of an AI decision — inputs, model versions, feature values, and prior decisions that influenced it.
AI auditing platforms, explainability tool vendors, enterprise AI governance
Regulatory compliance
A platform for regulated industries where every automated decision must be traceable to its origin for audit or challenge.
Fintech, insurance, healthcare AI platforms; regtech vendors
