The long-term infrastructure CLARA is building toward: a core question battery on age assurance, circumvention, parental controls effectiveness, and harm exposure — fielded annually, globally comparable, pre-registered, publicly reported. Any government adopts it, adds local modules, owns its data. The core stays identical. Platform leaderboards grounded in standardized independent measurement, not self-reported compliance.
We are not there yet. We are building the credibility, the methodology, and the partnerships that make it possible. The US age assurance survey currently in development is the first proof of concept. If you are a government, funder, or research body who wants to build this with us — that is the conversation we most want to have.
We know what the systems actually measure, where the data is missing, and what questions the industry has systematically avoided asking — because we spent years inside these platforms asking them.
Governments add jurisdiction-specific modules while keeping the core battery intact. Local context, global comparability. Each country that joins makes the evidence stronger for everyone else.
Pre-registered before fielding. Results published. Inconsistency between a platform's claimed safety posture and its measured outcomes is reported as a finding, not buried in a footnote.
CLARA consults on fielding and analysis at cost. Any surplus funds more research. No platform touches the instrument. The data belongs to the governments and researchers who field it.
