Today marks the official release of AGORA (AI GOvernance and Regulatory Archive), ETO's latest tool. Previously in beta, AGORA is a living collection of AI-relevant laws, regulations, standards, and other governance documents from the United States and around the world. Plain-English summaries, thematic tags, and a variety of filters help you quickly discover and analyze key developments in AI governance.
AGORA's UI is designed for quick sorting and browsing. Find specific documents with a keyword search, or look for docs from different jurisdictions, time periods, or curated collections, such as Chinese law and policy or AI-focused documents from federal agencies. You can also browse AGORA's original thematic taxonomy - for example, pinpointing documents that address AI bias, discuss evaluation requirements, or focus on AI in specific application areas like medicine or public safety.
AGORA is built on an open-access dataset with full text and original metadata for every document. Our team of analysts continually compiles, screens, and annotates the latest from U.S. and official sources, using a well-documented methodology to build a systematic and transparent collection of AI law and policy. At this initial stage, AGORA has deepest coverage of U.S. federal laws, but the collection also includes hundreds of documents from state and local governments, executive agencies, international and multinational organizations, and other countries, with a particular focus on China.
AGORA is live today at https://agora.eto.tech, along with detailed documentation about the user interface and the underlying dataset. As always, feel free to contact us with any questions, or drop by for live support during our standing office hours. Good luck exploring! 🏛️
