What it does
Non-profit focused on AI risk management. Three arms: research (quantitative risk models — nine cyber risk models completed, expanding to loss of control and CBRN); ratings (independent grading of how well leading AI companies manage risk, across risk identification, severity assessment, safeguards and governance, published at ratings.safer-ai.org); and standards (leads AI risk management standards work in the EU and edits international red-teaming standards).
What they ask for — in their own terms
AI companies should be held to real risk-management standards, and governance should be built on rigorous, auditable frameworks rather than voluntary promises.
What they do
Research on risk management frameworks, public ratings of AI companies' safety practices (ratings.safer-ai.org), and standards work in EU and international governance processes.
Honest assessment
Small, technically serious and European — which matters, because it has standing in the EU standardisation processes that most US safety organisations do not. Responsive to substantive technical input on risk methodology.
What a newcomer can do
Read and cite the company ratings when arguing with policymakers or employers; donate; apply for an open role.
Worth knowing
A research and standards body, not a campaign — there is no membership or activist route. Its ratings are useful ammunition for other people's campaigns.
Concerns it covers
Risk-management adequacy at frontier developers — explicitly covering cyber, loss of control and CBRN. Methodologically the most rigorous of the company-rating projects, borrowing from mature safety-critical industries.
Government channel
Real in Europe — SaferAI staff serve as editors on international standards and participate in EU AI Act standardisation and the GPAI Code of Practice process.
