The AI accountability space is full of brilliant organizations, committed funders, and workers inside AI companies who know what's broken. But many of us are working in silos — duplicating effort, diluting impact, and losing ground to an industry moving faster than any single org can track.
Back Channel is the alliance that changes that.
A living, queryable mandate for AI accountability — built collectively, updated quarterly, and owned by everyone who contributes to it. Turning distinct efforts into an exponentially more powerful playbook.
A living, AI-powered knowledge base built collectively and updated continuously. Tells organizations what has already been done so they stop duplicating it. Tells funders where the gaps are. Surfaces collaborative projects no single organization could identify alone.
Every organization keeps its identity and mission. Back Channel gives them a shared foundation — one hundred distinct efforts becoming exponentially more powerful together than they ever could be apart.
Workers inside AI companies hold critical knowledge about what is actually being built and how — and what should be on our radar. The Worker Channel gives them new, safe, anonymous ways to contribute to accountability efforts — without ever having to go public.
If you're working on AI accountability — or funding it — get in touch.
