ASGR – AIGN Systemic Governance Readiness Index

The Global Score for Responsible AI Governance

Artificial Intelligence has moved from innovation to infrastructure.
Every week new regulations are announced, compliance races ahead, and yet trust continues to erode.
What has been missing is a systemic benchmark – a score that does not measure opinions or promises, but the real governance infrastructure built into laws, institutions, and technical systems.

That is why we created the ASGR – AIGN Systemic Governance Readiness Index.
Updated monthly, ASGR reveals where governance is strong, where it is fragmented, and where it is missing altogether.
For the first time, boards, regulators, investors, and educators can benchmark AI governance maturity on a global scale – and compare it across sectors, regions, and institutions.

👉 The Global Summary is free.
👉 Deep Dive Reports are premium, paid analyses – offering detailed benchmarks, sectoral insights, and governance roadmaps.

AI is no longer theory – it is infrastructure. Risks multiply. Trust erodes. But for the first time, the world can measure governance readiness.

ASGR turns complexity into clarity – and readiness into a measurable score. What is ASGR?

ASGR is the world’s first global benchmark that measures governance infrastructure – not opinions.
It does not track promises; it reveals which systems are enforceable today and where governance gaps expose systemic risks.

Unlike surveys or ethics pledges, ASGR evaluates whether real governance is in place:

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 over 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 7 Dimensions of ASGR

No. Dimension Description
1. Structural Readiness The existence of dedicated governance bodies, defined responsibilities, and embedded governance processes across the AI lifecycle.
2. Regulatory Coherence Alignment and interoperability of laws, standards, and enforcement mechanisms across sectors and jurisdictions.
3. Operational Enforcement The presence of technical and procedural controls (e.g. audits, traceability, risk interventions) ensuring real-world governance implementation.
4. Global Inclusion The degree to which governance practices incorporate low-resource actors, diverse cultural contexts, and cross-border data realities.
5. Real-Time Risk Response Capacity to detect, respond to, and mitigate governance-relevant risks as they emerge — with agility and accountability.
6. Trust Infrastructure Deployment of certified governance infrastructure such as registries, trust labels, assurance mechanisms, and certification schemes.
7. Governance Adaptability The ability of governance systems to evolve in step with technological change, especially in dynamic AI contexts (e.g. agentic AI, foundation models).

ASGR = Systemic Maturity Across All Layers

These dimensions are updated monthly based on real governance activity, not theoretical commitments.
Every signal feeds into one score: Global AI Governance Readiness.

The ASGR Compass

AI governance worldwide falls into four categories:

Systemic Builders – real infrastructure, audits, trust labels
Tactical Adopters – isolated compliance tools
Governance Talkers – pledges, boards, white papers
Risk Exposers – AI deployment without enforceable oversight

📌 ASGR maps where each sector, region, and institution falls on this compass.

Why AIGN OS Is the Benchmark

Scoring is only the beginning.
To understand how to improve, you need to understand what governance must become.

AIGN OS defines the benchmark that ASGR is built on:

certifiable
modular
operational
aligned with global frameworks (EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, OECD, Data Act)

AIGN OS = 100/100 Readiness
Every country, company, and governance initiative can now measure 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 part of the AIGN OS architecture — ensuring that readiness is not just measured, but can be achieved.
