AI Index
The Stanford AI Index gathers data about artificial intelligence for researchers, policymakers, journalists, and the public.

About AI Index
The AI Index is an independent initiative at Stanford HAI that tracks, collates, distills, and visualizes data about artificial intelligence. Its stated mission is to provide unbiased, rigorously vetted, and globally sourced data for policymakers, researchers, journalists, executives, and the general public. Its annual reports cover AI's technical progress, economic influence, and societal impact, and the program is led by an interdisciplinary steering committee of experts from academia and industry. The homepage highlights the 2026 AI Index Report as a comprehensive analysis of AI's trajectory.
The homepage states that previous editions have been cited by major newspapers and referenced by policymakers in several countries, but these claims are the site's own and are not independently verified here. The homepage also notes a judicial decision database project, carried out with The Hague University of Applied Sciences, which is described as an aim to improve predictability and legal certainty around AI regulation. Pricing is not stated on the homepage.
