Certification

ARIA Certified.

The ARIA Certified mark tells buyers, regulators, and the public that a product was tested against the open standard by a neutral lab — not graded by its own maker.

ARIA Certified mark

What ARIA Certified means

A certified product has been independently benchmarked against the seven founding principles using a neutral pool of synthesis techniques and adversarial samples. The mark is tied to a specification version and reflects verified, real-world capability — never a self-reported accuracy figure.

Who can apply

Certification is open to ARIA members in good standing. Membership funds the standard and grants the right to submit a product for evaluation.

    Lab evaluation

    An independent academic lab benchmarks the product against the threat-intelligence pool and the seven principles.

  3. 03

    Report

    The lab issues a verified report of results, scoped to a specification version.

  4. 04

    Mark granted

    Products that conform earn the ARIA Certified mark and a published result.

Audit fees are paid directly to the academic lab partner, not to ARIA.
