Start the process that turns AI governance into verifiable proof

GAFAIG certification is for organizations that want credible, third-party proof that meaningful human oversight is actually functioning across their AI operations. Verification is performed inside a controlled private review environment and, if certified, published as an independently verifiable public trust record.

The public registry is not the application system. Intake, evidence review, findings, deterministic scoring, and certification decisions occur inside the private GAFAIG verification engine. Only public certification outcomes and trust surfaces are published.

Who should apply

Teams that need credible external proof

Organizations deploying AI systems in production

Apply if AI systems are influencing products, services, infrastructure, internal workflows, or operational decisions.

Teams responsible for oversight, compliance, or risk

Apply if your organization needs an external verification process for responsible use, governance controls, and human review structures.

Companies preparing for scrutiny

Apply if customers, regulators, partners, investors, or the public may need independently verifiable proof that human oversight in AI systems is functioning.

What you receive

A public proof layer, not just an internal review

Verified certification outcome

A formal GAFAIG certification decision supported by structured review, findings, and deterministic scoring.

Public trust record

A canonical public trust record that can be reviewed and independently verified after certification and publication.

Independent verification endpoint

A signed public proof surface that can be validated outside the originating organization’s platform.

Portable trust surfaces

Widget, badge, and API trust surfaces that allow your certified outcome to travel across the web.

What happens next

From application to certified public record

GAFAIG does not treat this as a generic contact form. Submitting an application initiates a structured verification workflow that can lead to a published, independently verifiable public trust record.

1
Application received

Your submission is recorded and assigned a verification case.

2
Verification process

GAFAIG evaluates governance, evidence, and human oversight controls.

3
Public trust record

Certified outcomes are published as independently verifiable public trust records.

Submit application

Begin the process that can produce a certified public proof record

Submit your organization details to begin the GAFAIG verification process. This creates an intake record for private review and routes your application into the verification workflow. Applying does not place your organization in the public registry.

This is the only entry point into the GAFAIG verification workflow that can result in a publicly verifiable certification record.

You do not need complete documentation to begin. GAFAIG intake is designed to structure the verification process from your current state.

• Structured verification process• Independent evaluation• Public trust record upon certification
Before you submit

Takes about 2 minutes to begin. Full verification happens after intake.

This submission initiates a GAFAIG verification case. No certification is granted without full evaluation.

What happens after you submit
• A GAFAIG verification case is created
• Your submission is reviewed in a private verification environment
• You are contacted to continue the structured verification process
• Certification is only granted after full evaluation
Important

Submitting this form does not publish anything publicly. Your organization only appears in the GAFAIG registry after successful certification and approval.

What happens after submission

1. Your application enters the private GAFAIG verification intake process.

2. GAFAIG reviews scope, organization details, and system context before moving into structured verification.

3. Public visibility does not happen at application. Public registry listing occurs only after review, certification, and publication.

Application readiness

What GAFAIG evaluates

Oversight model

How humans review, intervene, escalate, or control material AI outcomes.

Policies and controls

Governance documents, operational controls, and accountability structures.

Evidence and findings

Artifacts that support oversight claims and findings that can be scored deterministically.

Certification decision readiness

Sufficient inputs to support deterministic scoring and a formal certification outcome.

Public vs private

What stays private and what becomes public

Private verification engine
  • Structured intake and case creation
  • Evidence and finding review
  • Reviewer workflow and internal assessment materials
  • Deterministic scoring inputs before publication
Published trust surfaces
  • Canonical public trust record
  • Signed verification proof
  • Public verification endpoint
  • Badge, widget, and portable trust signals
What you receive

Certification becomes a public proof layer

Organizations that complete the GAFAIG verification process receive more than an internal review outcome. They receive a public certification record, signed verification proof, portable trust surfaces, and a canonical registry presence that external parties can independently validate.

Public record
Registry entry

Canonical published certification record.

Signed proof
Ed25519

Independent cryptographic verification.

Trust surfaces
Badge · Widget

Portable certification display across the web.

API verification
/api/verify

Programmatic validation of certification state.

What happens after certification

Your outcome is externally verifiable

Registry
Public record

A canonical public trust record is published to GAFAIG.

Verification
Signed proof

Third parties can independently validate certification.

Distribution
Badge + widget

Certification can be surfaced across websites and products.

Developers
API + SDK

Teams can verify certification programmatically.

How to begin

Start with the current GAFAIG experience

GAFAIG’s live demo and public trust surfaces prove the exact kind of outcome the certification process produces. Start there, then review the framework and trust interfaces before entering the verification workflow.

Demo

Walk through the current live GAFAIG trust experience.

Framework

Review the deterministic model behind evidence, scoring, and certification.

Developers

See the verification API, signed proof model, badge, widget, and SDK.

Next step

Begin the GAFAIG certification journey

Start by reviewing the mission, framework, and live trust surfaces. Then enter the private verification intake process to begin formal GAFAIG review.
