The world’s infrastructure-based benchmark for Responsible AI Governance.
Artificial Intelligence has moved from innovation to infrastructure.
Every week new regulations emerge, compliance accelerates — yet trust continues to erode.
What has been missing is a systemic benchmark: a score that measures not opinions or promises, but the real governance infrastructure built into laws, institutions, and technical systems.
That is why we created ASGR – the AIGN Systemic Governance Readiness Index.
Updated monthly, ASGR reveals where governance is strong, fragmented, or missing altogether.
For the first time, boards, regulators, investors, and educators can benchmark AI governance maturity globally — across sectors, regions, and institutions.

From Complexity to Clarity
AI is no longer theory — it is infrastructure.
Risks multiply. Trust erodes. For the first time, the world can measure governance readiness.
ASGR turns complexity into clarity — and readiness into a measurable score.
What ASGR Measures
ASGR is the world’s first benchmark that evaluates governance infrastructure — not opinions.
It reveals where governance is enforceable today — and where systemic gaps create risk.
Unlike surveys or ethics pledges, ASGR tests whether real mechanisms exist:
- Are governance bodies embedded across the AI lifecycle?
- Do regulations align across borders and sectors?
- Are audits and enforcement mechanisms operational?
- Can risks be detected and mitigated in real time?
Every month, ASGR consolidates 1,200 verified governance signals into a single score — the Global AI Governance Readiness Index.
👉 In short: ASGR is where AI governance becomes measurable.
The Seven Dimensions of ASGR
| No. | Dimension | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Structural Readiness | Dedicated governance bodies, defined responsibilities, and embedded processes across the AI lifecycle. |
| 2 | Regulatory Coherence | Alignment of laws, standards, and enforcement mechanisms across sectors and jurisdictions. |
| 3 | Operational Enforcement | Audits, traceability, and interventions ensuring governance works in practice. |
| 4 | Global Inclusion | Incorporation of diverse actors, cultures, and cross-border data realities. |
| 5 | Real-Time Risk Response | Ability to detect and mitigate emerging risks with agility and accountability. |
| 6 | Trust Infrastructure | Certified mechanisms — registries, labels, assurance, certification — that embed measurable trust. |
| 7 | Governance Adaptability | Capacity to evolve with technological change (agentic AI, foundation models, etc.). |
Each dimension is updated monthly based on real governance activity, not declarations.
All signals merge into one global score of systemic maturity.
The ASGR Compass
AI governance worldwide falls into four maturity categories:
- Systemic Builders – real infrastructure, audits, trust labels
- Tactical Adopters – isolated compliance tools
- Governance Talkers – pledges & white papers
- Risk Exposers – AI deployment without oversight
📌 ASGR maps where each sector, region, and institution stands on this compass.
Why AIGN OS Is the Benchmark
Scoring is only the beginning.
To improve, organizations must understand what governance must become.
AIGN OS defines the benchmark on which ASGR is built — certifiable, modular, operational, and aligned with the EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, OECD, and Data Act.
🟣 AIGN OS = 100 / 100 Readiness
Every country, company, and institution can now measure itself against a real operating system.

Behind ASGR
“As architect of the world’s first AI Governance OS, I designed ASGR not to measure opinion — but infrastructure. This is how the world will know where governance is real.”
— Patrick Upmann, Founder of AIGN
ASGR is an integral part of the AIGN OS architecture — ensuring that readiness is not just measured, but achieved.
