FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Straight answers about Enpath. If yours isn’t here, get in touch.
- Is Enpath a company or a non-profit?
- An independent, mission-locked organization funded by its own work: government advisory, private-sector services, training, and independent audits. The work pays for the mission, but the mission always comes first — details on the Methodology & integrity page.
- Do you build AI models?
- No. Others, far larger than us, build the models. We help you use them well — with evidence, transparency, and people who answer for the decisions.
- Do you audit other organizations’ AI?
- Yes, under strict rules: the methodology is public, the result is not negotiable, and no audited organization may fund our research. Adopting the Standard is free and never requires hiring us. This replaced our earlier position; the change is logged in Methodology & integrity.
- Does Enpath replace human decision-makers?
- Never. Our work widens what a person can see and consider; the decision, and the responsibility for it, stay human.
- Where does Enpath work?
- The work starts with Latin America — where the cost of an untrustworthy answer is highest and good analysis is scarcest. The ambition is global.
- How is Enpath funded?
- Through our own work — advisory for governments and companies, training, and independent audits. No funder, client, or partner directs our conclusions, and funding relevant to a piece is disclosed on it.
- Who is accountable when Enpath gets something wrong?
- A named person — identified before the fact, not found after the harm. "The AI decided" is never an answer here. Errors are corrected in the open, on the piece where they appeared, under our published corrections policy.
- Won’t commercial pressure corrupt the mission?
- It’s the risk we watch most closely. The mission is locked above the commercial work, with a published firewall, so no contract or client can quietly repurpose it.
- Can I work with Enpath today?
- Yes. Our research and the Standard are published and free to use, and our advisory and training services are open to governments and companies. Get in touch and tell us what you’re working on.
- Can I cite or republish your research?
- Quote and cite freely, with attribution and a link. For full republication or translation, ask us — we say yes to most serious requests. One condition: the uncertainty travels with the findings. Details are in our research integrity policy.
- How do I report an error in your research?
- Through the contact form. Error reports are read by a person and answered by a named person, and substantive corrections are logged publicly on the piece itself. Being corrected by readers is the system working.
- How do you handle data and privacy?
- We collect the least data necessary, protect it, and are clear about its use. We use analytics you control: cookieless Vercel analytics for everyone, and Google Analytics only if you accept the banner. The full notice is on the Privacy page.
