Where a provider is based says nothing about where it stores your data. Open weights do not always come with an open-source licence. Whether Annex III applies depends on how you use the system.

What the source marks mean

Each mark shows what kind of source backs a fact. Open the fact to read the source, the date it was checked and any conditions.

Documented by the provider
The provider's own documentation supports this fact, for the product, plan and date stated.
Stated by the provider
The provider says this, for example on a marketing page. Read the linked source and its conditions before you rely on it.
ETHORITY analysis
ETHORITY's assessment, based on the linked sources.
Independent source
An independent source supports this one fact, within the scope stated. Check the other facts separately.

Figures marked 'Scenario' are calculated from stated assumptions. Results measured in practice are shown separately.

06ANALYSIS FOR YOUR NEXT DECISION

Three analyses for your next AI decision.

Try the numbers. See what changes.

Seven tools for your next decision. Modelled scenarios, with assumptions you can inspect.

How we work: Discover, Create, Run, Improve, Grow

02HOW ETHORITY WORKS WITH YOU

From the first idea to AI that runs every day.

You find the right AI, decide, put it into operation and adapt it as conditions change. ETHORITY works in a loop of five steps, and each step ends with a clear decision.

  1. Discover

    Find where AI can help your business and what the market offers for it.

    Live market exploration
  2. Create

    Choose the option and build the solution, including its costs, data and responsibilities.

    Services · by agreement
  3. Run

    Operate the system day to day, with named owners and agreed checks.

    Workspace · demonstration
  4. Improve

    Measure the result against the starting point and adjust what does not work.

    Review services · by agreement
  5. Grow

    Extend what works to more teams, sites or countries.

    Provider services · network planned

Question · Question · Who is responsible for each AI use, the proof that it works and the next decision?

Scenario: this is how an AI system looks with named owners and proof of results. Services by agreement.

Effective — AI supports a concrete goal with results you can check.

Efficient — effort, cost and human rework are counted.

Economic — a technical gain is tested for its real business value.

Responsible — people, rights, safety and ethical consequences are part of the decision. Compliance is part of it; responsibility goes further.

AI needs rules. Five questions to set them.

AI governance means deciding who is responsible for an AI system, what it may do and how you check it. Scenario: an AI agent – software that carries out tasks on its own within set permissions – answers customer requests and triggers refunds. Five questions make it safe and worth the effort.

  1. Responsibility: who decides?

    One named person owns the agent; finance owns the refund budget, IT the system connections. AI Governance Setup defines roles, decision rights and the approval path.

  2. Authority: what may it do alone?

    The agent sees orders and delivery status and refunds up to a limit your finance team sets. Profiles and Compare show what each agent product can do and how it handles your data.

  3. Evidence: what does each answer rest on?

    Answers on prices and return rules name their source; every refund is recorded with reason, amount and approval. The AI Trust Record checks one system in ten working days.

  4. Control: when does a person step in?

    A person reviews refunds above the limit, complaints and unclear cases; the head of customer service approves exceptions. The AI Trust Pilot tests this for six weeks with a stop rule.

  5. Benefit: does the result improve?

    Measure answers your team accepts as correct, complaints and rework time, before and during the pilot. The AI calculators show cost per accepted answer and the real value of freed time.
