Audience Routing

Here's the right starting point.

This site serves different audiences with different needs. Rather than forcing you to scroll through everything, pick the role that best describes you and jump straight to what's useful. Every audience has the same underlying research, just framed for what you actually need to know.

Defense Program Manager
You need to know if this fits a solicitation, if it's technically sound, and if the team can execute. Whether you're a uniformed or civilian researcher at AFRL, NRL, ARL, or ONR; a program officer at DARPA, MITRE, an Army or Air Force AI program office, or the Chief Digital and AI Office; or part of a defense FFRDC or service-lab evaluation team, you're evaluating against the Heilmeier Catechism in some form.

Federal Program Reviewer
You need to evaluate the three Dhanasar prongs: substantial merit and national importance, ability to advance the proposed endeavor, and broader benefit to the United States. Every claim must be independently verifiable.

Defense Contractor / Prime
Shield AI, Anduril, Skydio, L3Harris, General Atomics, Northrop, Boeing. You're evaluating whether AUTHREX integrates with your autonomy stack and whether it solves a DoDD 3000.09 compliance problem.
Start here
Automotive / ASIL-D Team
Mobileye, Tesla, Waymo, Tier 1 suppliers. You need a formal safety governance framework that passes ISO 26262 ASIL-D review, not probabilistic confidence scores that don't bound failure probability.
Start here
Think Tank / Policy Researcher
CSIS, Hudson, CNAS, FDD, RAND, MITRE. You're interested in the policy dimension: AI governance, escalation risk, human command authority, DoDD 3000.09 interpretation.
Start here
Academic Peer / Reviewer
You're peer-reviewing a paper, evaluating a conference submission, or looking at this for a collaboration. You want the formal specs, the TLA+ proofs, and the experimental protocols.
Start here
Investor / SBIR Reviewer
You want to see the commercialization path, TRL assessment, and realistic cost/timeline to deployment. Heilmeier questions 6-9 matter most to you.
Start here
Just Curious / General Visitor
You saw this linked somewhere, or you're researching AI governance generally. You want a clear explanation of what this is and why it matters, in plain English.
