Azusa Audit Corporation Signs Joint Research Agreement on Auditing with Sakana AI

▤ Summary

Azusa Audit Corporation and Sakana AI signed a joint research agreement focused on auditing in the era of AI agents. Their first result is CoffeeBench, a benchmark that simulates long-horizon business activity by multiple AI agents across negotiation, trade, pricing, inventory, credit, and payment delays. The work aims to examine how AI-driven decision-making affects internal controls, risk management, audit evidence, and governance. Azusa plans to use the research to shape future audit procedures and evaluate risks tied to autonomous agent behavior. Sakana AI says the benchmark should help developers and researchers study agent behavior in more realistic business settings.
