For Policymakers & Researchers
Exploitation Intelligence for Policymakers & Researchers
Legislators, academic institutions, clearinghouses, philanthropic funders
We work with legislators, academic institutions, clearinghouses and philanthropic funders who share our conviction that technology decisions in counter-exploitation are mental health decisions, evidentiary decisions and policy decisions all at once.
Regulatory frameworks and the technology built to meet them evolve together. GEN sits at this intersection where practitioners build the tools and advisors shape the policy environment that determines whether those tools can be used at all.
Tooling
Exploitation Intelligence Tooling for Policymakers & Researchers
| Category | Description |
|---|---|
| Risk & Ethics Frameworks | GEN's AI Testing and Training Ethics Framework, in pilot testing today, gives legislators and institutions a tiered structure for evaluating how illegal content detection models are trained and tested, from publicly available court records through fully consented, multi-jurisdictional research data. |
| Regulatory Landscape Mapping | Analysis of how platform accountability legislation moves across jurisdictions, including how US frameworks like SESTA-FOSTA have shaped the EU's Digital Services Act and CSDDD, and where the resulting "knowing paradox" creates real liability questions for platforms trying to do the right thing. |
| Research Data Partnerships | Structured access to de-identified case pattern data from our work across 200+ law enforcement agencies in 30+ countries, available to qualified academic and research partners under formal partnership agreements. |
