Article One takes on select consulting engagements for businesses, non-profits, and government agencies that want assistance designing the systems that will produce the results they want to achieve.
We can help you make money, but our differentiator is in producing above-average non-economic returns. Existing market mechanisms are already quite good at enabling businesses that seek to maximize profits.
Building institutions and systems that produce benefits that cannot be measured by market indicators is far more challenging.
Article.One is founded by Sarthak Agrawal, who comes to work on mechanism design based on his expertise from financial markets (e.g. buy-side investing), ML and security engineering (e.g. formal verification systems), AI Safety (e.g. child safety, disinformation), and US policy (our founder wrote the first draft of the Hawley-Blumenthal AI Risk Evaluation Act and advised on the Obernolte-Trahan FRONTIER AI Act).
