Independent AI certification authority

Make AI trust verifiable.

Clause5afe evaluates defined AI systems through an independent certification process, maintains continuing evidence pathways across the certification lifecycle, and builds the public verification layer that allows customers, regulators, insurers, investors, and the market to inspect the claim.

We certify. We do not consult. No implementation, remediation, readiness assessment, or guaranteed outcome.

Certification path

A controlled route from scope to decision.

Clause5afe assesses the evidence and controls the certification decision. The client remains responsible for operating, changing, governing, and remediating its own AI system.

01

Scope

Define the exact AI system, version, deployment context, intended use, and evidence boundary.

02

Evaluate

Qualified evaluators examine technical, governance, oversight, and operational evidence.

03

Review

Quality review separates evidence gathering from the authority that makes the certification decision.

04

Decide

A controlled decision establishes outcome, scope, conditions, status, and the public verification record.

Continuous Monitoring

Monitoring produces evidence. Certification requires judgment.

Certification establishes a decision against a defined system and evidence set. Continuous monitoring helps identify meaningful change, incidents, operational signals, and new evidence during the certification validity period without turning telemetry into an automatic certification decision.

Evidence ecosystem

One certification authority. Multiple qualified evidence sources.

Clause5afe can evaluate evidence produced by approved monitoring technologies, client systems, operational records, and human review while retaining control over admissibility, interpretation, re-assessment, and certification status.

Framework Coverage

Mapping that explains more and claims less.

Clause5afe’s public framework layer explains how certification criteria relate to external standards, laws, and governance frameworks. Coverage is defined by requirements, scope, and evidence, not by headline framework counts.

Public boundary

Clause5afe certification is its own certification.

It is not represented as ISO/IEC 42001 certification, accreditation, regulatory approval, legal immunity, a safe harbor, or a guarantee of compliance.

Public Registry

Verification should resolve to the authoritative record.

The Registry will publish only approved certification records and expose the current scope, version, status, validity, and relevant lifecycle history of a certification. No decorative badge should be trusted without a record behind it.

No public certifications entered yet

Only certification records authorized for publication appear in the public Registry.

Industry pathways

Built for systems where decisions have consequences.

The initial six sectors reflect the current Clause5afe focus areas while preserving system-specific scoping and room for consequential use cases outside those categories.
