Designing Transparency-First AI Governance

Guide jurisdictions or organizations through phased implementation.

Phase 1: Foundations#

• Pass baseline legislation or adopt corporate policy.
• Establish oversight bodies and resource budgets.
• Launch pilot disclosure portal.

Phase 2: Expansion#

• Onboard initial set of organizations (e.g., high-risk labs, public sector deployments).
• Collect first wave of disclosures, refine templates based on feedback.
• Train auditors and ombuds staff.

Phase 3: Optimization#

• Expand coverage to additional sectors.
• Publish comparative scorecards and best practice guides.
• Integrate learnings back into policy revisions via scheduled sunset reviews.

Phase 4: Integration#

• Align with international partners by sharing schemas and metrics.
• Encourage voluntary adoption by smaller organizations.
• Continue iterative improvements through transparency councils or working groups.
