For AI companies
We support companies developing and deploying frontier AI systems by:
- Derisking critical use cases for democratic mechanisms in AI alignment and governance, including those where existing decision-making systems are most likely to fail
- Being a thought partner on how to navigate difficult policy,governance, and alignment challenges
- Providing guidance, process design, and integration support for governance experimentation, institutionalization to address those challenges
- Identifying ways their AI systems can be used to strengthen democracy

A living map of “democratic capabilities” needs and gaps, intended to help researchers, builders, and funders identify high-leverage open problems and build critical infrastructure.
The Deliberation and Technology Network
The Deliberation and Technology Network (“DelibTech” network), which we co-organize with DemocracyNext, is a global network of technologists, practitioners, and experts who are building, studying, and using technology to enhance deliberation and to create digital infrastructure for deliberative democracy. Among other goals, the network aims to increase learning and R&D feedback loops between those building and using deliberative tools.
Democracy Levels
A framework for evaluating the quality of a democratic system, and the degree to which a decision-making process or system is democratic. It provides a common language for milestones relevant to the goals of the democratic AI, pluralistic AI, participatory AI, and public AI ecosystems.
