Notes on our research, organization, and how we operate - from company milestones to the norms that guide our work.
Towards embedded evaluations for scheming propensities
Embedded evaluations for frontier AI scheming: four claims every safety case must make, and the persistent, deep access embedded evaluators need to verify them.
On Testifying on Misaligned AI in the U.S. Senate
Apollo Research CEO Marius Hobbhahn testifies before the U.S. Senate on AI scheming: why our tools for detecting misaligned AI are degrading, and four steps to act before models learn to hide deception.
Principles for Embedded Evaluations
A framework for embedded evaluations of frontier AI developers, centered on claim-based, publicly reported assessments.
Embedded Evaluators are necessary for meaningful external testing
Final-checkpoint testing could not have caught recent incidents like the Hugging Face incident, which arose much earlier in development. Meaningful external testing requires embedded evaluators with employee-equivalent access.
Apollo Update May 2026
Apollo Research now has an office in San Francisco and is hiring across many roles including Science of Scheming and Monitoring.
Apollo Research is becoming a PBC
Apollo is spinning off from our fiscal sponsor into a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC). We think this is the best way for us to achieve our mission of reducing extreme risks from frontier AI systems.
Our Norms on Security, Science Communication and Conflicts of Interest
We outline Apollo Research’s norms on security, science communication, and conflicts of interest, detailing how we maintain scientific integrity, manage sensitive information, and communicate our work responsibly.
Apollo 18-Month Update
Apollo Research is now 18 months old. We reflect on our research progress and consider our priorities for the year ahead.
Apollo Is Adopting Inspect
Apollo is adopting Inspect as its evals framework. We will contribute features and potentially example agent evals to Inspect and look forward to work with the Inspect community.
The First Year of Apollo Research
A summary of what we have achieved in our first year and what we plan to do in the future.
Theories of Change for AI Auditing
Apollo Research's framework for how AI auditing reduces risk from misaligned AI.
