Why It Won — our reading

The prize name does the explaining here: Most Impactful means this was judged on consequence, not novelty. AI security scanners produce findings faster than anyone can trust them, so the reports pile up unread — a bottleneck any team running one will recognise. Rather than chasing better detection, RedAgent adds a verification layer behind the AI, using AI to clean up a problem AI created. That meta-position is what set it apart.

This is our own analysis based on the official announcement and the project's own materials. It is not the organizer's stated reasoning.
