Engage
Work with Standards Body
Standards Body is an independent, founder-operated research project, and it is deliberately open about what it is seeking. If you work in or around frontier AI, there are four concrete ways to engage, each bounded and each on the record.
Currently seeking
Three named external reviewers
The library currently carries a “Not externally reviewed” badge on every record, honestly. Standards Body is seeking three reviewers to begin changing that:
- One frontier AI evaluation or benchmark specialist
- One standards, accreditation, or conformity-assessment specialist
- One institutional-governance or public-interest specialist
The engagement is bounded: one document of your choosing, reviewed on your schedule. Reviews are published as documented reviews, not endorsements, stating the reviewer’s scope, disclosed conflicts, material criticisms, and the project’s recorded disposition of every comment. Critical reviews are published exactly as favorable ones would be. Reviews are unpaid and reviewers may withdraw at any point before publication.

Every record has a correction route. Corrections are recorded, and versions are preserved without silent edits. Framework publishers are explicitly invited to correct the crosswalk.
Report a correction →Use and cite
Every record has BibTeX and CSL JSON, checksums, and an immutable version path. The library is machine-readable.
catalog.json →Talk
Research questions, disagreements, conversations about the field. Public discussion happens on X.
From the founder
I am Syed Hussain. I built and operate Standards Body independently and fund it myself, because I believe the infrastructure for credibly evaluating frontier AI has to be built early, in the open, and without waiting for permission. Everything in the library, including its unfinished edges and its “not externally reviewed” badges, is published so that people who actually do this work can check it, correct it, and improve it.
If you are one of those people, I want to hear from you, including, and especially, where you think this work is wrong. Write to me at [email protected].
