Description

Tracks the post-acquisition vendor strategy (docs/vendor-strategy.md has the full landscape).

Status: Fermion acquired by Testpress 2026-05-22 (infra verified alive 2026-08-26; new-school signup gated during migration). Outreach letter drafted → support@testpress.in / support@codedamn.com.

Gates

  • Send letter; follow up in 3 business days
  • If school provisioning lands: get API key → verify labs/DRM/live E2E on real account → decide keep-Fermion vs specialists (#60/#59/#62 spikes inform this)
  • Parallel: Kinescope trial (€10/mo DRM included) + VdoCipher $149/yr Starter evaluation
  • Optional: Euron Systems Explorer plan probe (competitor intel; no coding sandbox evident)
  • Decision record + close or re-scope this issue

Decision rule: Testpress delivers key + working sandbox within 2 weeks AND pricing ≤ specialists → stay Fermion-compatible. Otherwise default narrow stack (VdoCipher + Stream + Judge0).
