# Alpha

> Alpha Governance Group, PBC is an independent AI governance ratings and intelligence firm making AI-enabled enterprises governable, investable, insurable, and accountable.

Alpha turns company disclosures, regulatory filings, board actions, policies, controls, incidents, regulatory developments, and observed outcomes into comparable AI governance ratings, benchmarks, diagnostics, alerts, and analytics. The Alpha Governance Standard defines the Alpha 12 dimensions Alpha evaluates, AGR expresses governance quality, and GMI expresses governance materiality. Alpha assesses enterprise governance environments and does not certify individual models.

Alpha operates through three connected units: Alpha Institute develops research, standards, education, and the Alpha Council; Alpha Ratings produces ratings, indices, benchmarks, and diagnostic assessments; Alpha Intelligence delivers those signals through Alpha Terminal, dashboards, reports, alerts, APIs, and MCP integrations.
