HAI Evaluation Disclaimer
Effective Date: March 1, 2026
The Human-Alignment Index™ (HAI Score™) is an analytical framework developed by Humaital to evaluate how organizations align technological innovation, governance, and operational practices with principles of responsible and human-centered development.
The HAI Score™ is designed to encourage thoughtful governance, responsible innovation, and increased transparency regarding the societal impact of emerging technologies.
This disclaimer outlines the intended purpose and limitations of the Human-Alignment Index™ evaluations.
Purpose of the Human-Alignment Index™
The Human-Alignment Index™ was developed to provide a structured framework for analyzing organizational practices related to technology governance, accountability, transparency, and societal impact.
The index evaluates organizations across several governance principles including:
- Trust
- Accountability
- Purpose
- Safety
- Transparency
- Impact
The objective of the framework is to promote constructive dialogue and encourage organizations to strengthen responsible governance practices in the development and deployment of technology.
HAI evaluations are intended to serve as informational analytical tools, not definitive judgments of an organization’s overall performance.
Methodology and Information Sources
HAI evaluations are based on methodologies developed by Humaital and may include analysis of:
- publicly available information
- corporate governance disclosures
- published policies and reports
- publicly accessible statements and documentation
- information voluntarily submitted through the HAI platform
Humaital does not claim to have access to internal company records unless voluntarily provided.
As a result, evaluations reflect the information reasonably available at the time of analysis.
Analytical Interpretation
The Human-Alignment Index™ and HAI Score™ represent analytical interpretations of available information using Humaital’s proprietary methodology.
Reasonable individuals may reach different conclusions when interpreting the same information.
The HAI Score™ should therefore be understood as an evaluative framework intended to encourage discussion and improvement, rather than a definitive or exhaustive assessment.
Dynamic Nature of Scores
Organizational policies, governance practices, and technological systems evolve over time.
As new information becomes available or organizational practices change, HAI evaluations and scores may be updated.
An organization’s score at any given time reflects the information available during the evaluation period.
No Endorsement or Certification
Unless explicitly stated, an HAI Score™ does not constitute:
- a certification
- a regulatory approval
- a legal determination
- an endorsement of an organization
Similarly, a lower score does not necessarily indicate misconduct or wrongdoing.
The index is intended to highlight opportunities for improved governance and alignment with responsible technology principles.
Limitation of Liability
Humaital makes reasonable efforts to conduct evaluations in good faith and based on credible sources.
However, Humaital does not guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of all information used in HAI analyses.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Humaital shall not be liable for any damages or losses arising from:
- reliance on HAI evaluations
- interpretation of HAI scores
- decisions made based on information provided through the HAI platform
Use of the Human-Alignment Index™ and HAI Score™ is at the user’s own discretion.
Opportunity for Clarification
Organizations that believe relevant information has been overlooked or misinterpreted may contact Humaital to provide additional documentation or clarification.
Humaital may review submitted information and update evaluations where appropriate.
The objective of the Human-Alignment Index™ is to encourage constructive engagement and continuous improvement.
Intellectual Property
The Human-Alignment Index™, HAI Score™, and associated methodologies are proprietary frameworks developed by Humaital and are protected intellectual property.
Unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or modification of these frameworks is prohibited without permission.
Commitment to Responsible Evaluation
Humaital is committed to conducting evaluations with integrity, transparency, and intellectual honesty.
The Human-Alignment Index™ exists to encourage thoughtful governance and responsible innovation as emerging technologies reshape the global economy and society.
Governance Approval Statement
This Human-Alignment Index™ Evaluation Disclaimer has been reviewed and approved by the ownership, founders, and management of Humaital and reflects the organization’s commitment to responsible governance, transparency, and alignment with Humaital’s core values.
