We measure.
We sign.
We re-attest.
Everyone can check.
We measure how your AI behaves on our own published instruments and issue the result as a verified measurement credential: a 3KB card, Ed25519-signed and timestamp-anchored. Then we measure again. Not certification. Not another dashboard.

The problem we fix
Assertions are cheap. Proof is not. Buyers and regulators are asked to trust a PDF.
What they sell you
A claim you cannot recompute
- A vendor says the model is safe, aligned, or compliant.
- The evidence is a slide, a badge, or a private report.
- You cannot run the same test. You cannot see what was left unmeasured.
- Six months later the model has changed and the PDF has not.
What we issue
A card anyone can check
- We run the system on frozen, published instruments.
- We sign the result. You keep the 3KB card.
- Unmeasured slots stay empty. No invented scores.
- Re-attest is a new record, never an edit of the old one.
What you actually get
The product is the stack: measure, sign, live contest, living layer. The scoreboard is how people cite it.
Signed measurement card
Ed25519-signed, 3KB. First card is free. Verify stays free and loginless.
Anyone can check
The verify path is public. We do not put it behind an account or a fee.
Honest 15-slot grid
13 measured on the live board. Jail is a measured floor (empty on this stamp); slot 15 is unnamed and empty.
Council Space
The live contest. Model versus model. Every round is evidence, not a brochure.
Council City
The living layer. Districts emit the same signed atom. Not a dashboard website.
Re-attest, never edit
A new signed record. History stays. Drift is visible.
No money from what we rank
We do not sell ratings and we do not take a cut from anything on the board.
Measurement credential
Not a certification. Not a notified body. We measure, sign, and keep the evidence.
Built for the people who get audited
One instrument, four audiences. Pick your path — every CTA leads to the same measurement, signed.

Questions people ask
What does Council of AI do?
We measure how AI systems behave against frozen, published benchmarks: 13 measured axes, jail floor (measured, empty on this stamp), unnamed slot-15, and issue the result as a verified measurement credential — a 3KB card, Ed25519-signed and timestamp-anchored. Anyone can verify a card without asking us.
Do you certify AI systems?
No. We issue verified measurement credentials, not certifications. A card shows what your AI actually did when we measured it — measured evidence, never a badge of approval.
What does a measurement card cost?
Your first measurement card is free. Ongoing re-attestation starts at £199/month. Enterprise plans available — see the pricing page.
Which regulations do you cover?
Our frozen provision bank covers 417 statutory provisions across the EU AI Act, GDPR, CRA, DORA and NIS2, crosswalked to 13 frameworks including NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001. New instruments ship as regulation lands.
Who can see my measurement results?
You decide. Cards are signed but disclosure is yours — publish them to your customers and regulators, or keep them private. The signing key is public; your data never leaves your control.
