At Claigrid we get to discover spectacular futures: Introducing TIME: the value standard for the post-automation economy. Every economic era runs on a standard, gold-backed currency. GDP measures nations. Credit ratings price risk. Each answered the same question: how do we measure value in this economy? The AI and automation economy doesn't have an answer yet. When an autonomous agent produces output without human labour, every existing metric loses coherence. You can't measure it in wages; there are none. We can't measure it in hours worked; no one worked. You can't measure it in the cost of goods; marginal cost is approaching zero. So what do you measure? The outcome: human time. TIME is a standard that measures how much human time a system liberates or destroys, weighted by the quality of that liberation, the equity of its distribution, and the signal-to-noise ratio of how the time is spent. One number, 0 to 100, for every piece of technology. The first 76 scores are live today: → Claude Opus 4.6 — 88.8 (A). Highest signal-to-noise ratio of any frontier AI model. → Wikipedia — 85.0 (A). The purest information utility in existence. TSNR of 32:1. → Google Maps — 82.5 (A). The purest consumer time-liberation tool. → Slack — 48.2 (D). The productivity tool that barely produces more time than it consumes. → TikTok — 18.4 (F-). 1.9 billion users × 95 minutes per day. Noise-to-signal ratio of 5.5:1. The methodology is public. The formulas are open. Every score is auditable. Agents need a unit to price their output. Markets need a metric to compare AI systems. Investors need a standard to value what's being built. TIME is the base layer. The scores are live. What comes next is how the world prices everything that isn't human. timescore.co
