About BABL AI
BABL AI is an independent AI audit and assurance firm. Since 2018, we have operated under international assurance standards (ISAE 3000), testifying before state legislatures, engaging with the European Commission on the EU AI Act, and auditing AI systems for clients ranging from Y Combinator startups to some of the most valuable companies in the world.
This publication is where we share the methodology, policy analysis, and community intelligence behind that work. Expect technical insights on bias audits, TEVV, and LLM assurance; substantive coverage of the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and the standards battles shaping what “assurance” will mean globally; and news from the bodies defining the field: ForHumanity, the IAAA, the NIST AI Safety Institute Consortium, and beyond.
If you are a practitioner, policymaker, or executive building the infrastructure of trustworthy AI, this is written for you.
