Labs Impact

Ensuring AI progress benefits people and the planet.

How Labs turns frontier intelligences progress into shared benefit — for our people, our planet, and the communities we serve.

Our labs, your benefit

What each lab is aimed at.

Impact at a technology company is not only what it gives away. It is what the technology is pointed at. Seven Frontier Labs, and the direction each one is being built toward — stated as intent, not as results achieved.

Labsintelligence

Intelligence people can actually use

Aimed at making advanced intelligence genuinely useful to people who do not work in technology.

Labs Realities

Presence and access

Aimed at closing the distance for people separated by geography, cost or physical ability.

Aimed at transparency in the systems people are asked to trust but cannot inspect.

LabsX

2027

Starting line

The year we start counting.

Labs Impact is new. Rather than describe a record that does not exist yet, we are publishing the starting line: 2027 is the first full year Labs Impact operates as a program, and it becomes the baseline every year after it is measured against.

What gets counted

The areas set out on this page — social investment, health and wellbeing, equity and accessibility, sustainability, community, and governance — each with the method stated alongside the number.

When it is published

The first reports arrive at year-end 2027, and annually from then on. Where a measure is not yet ready to report, we intend to say so rather than leave it out.

Who holds it

The Labs Impact Council reviews what is reported and is accountable for it, alongside board oversight of ethics and responsible AI.

What we look to learn

The questions we are starting with.

A first year is for finding out what is true. These are the questions we expect to be working on, and reporting against, before we have settled answers.

Which measures actually capture benefit to a person, rather than activity by a company.

How to weigh work that helps and harms at the same time — the ordinary condition of frontier technology, not the exception.

What makes advanced systems genuinely usable by people who will never read a model card.

Where a company this early should spend first, when everything is worth doing and nothing is yet proven.
