Research infrastructure to understand how AI truly transforms the world.

AI is transforming the world. We are building intelligent infrastructure to understand this change.

Issue

Artificial intelligence is entering the real world. But we lack the infrastructure to understand how it happens.

Disperse

AI deployment information is scattered across news articles, reports, papers, and social media without a unified structured record.

Opaque

We don't know which industries, countries, or ways AI is being used.

Unstructured

Existing information cannot be systematically compared, validated, or analyzed.

Unable to verify

Claims about AI effects lack evidence and are difficult to verify.

Hard to compare

AI applications across different countries and industries cannot be meaningfully compared.

Difficult to understand

Policymakers, businesses, and the public lack a foundational understanding of AI's true impact.

A-AO

AI Application Observation — the fundamental unit of our intelligent layer.

What is A-AO?

A-AO (AI Application Observation) is a structured record of AI deployments in the real world. It documents reality, problems, AI technologies, workflow changes, human impact, resources, and outcomes.
