Custom research projects
You can commission us to work on a specific research question or project that is aligned with our mission.
Research reports on AI trends: We produce detailed reports on AI trends and bottlenecks, similar in scope & depth to our AI power demand study with EPRI, or our Rosetta Stone paper with Google Deepmind.
Model evaluation and analysis: We evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, and capabilities of AI systems across domains, both qualitatively and quantitatively.
Data collection and curation: We are known for collecting and validating some of the highest quality and most complete data on AI models, training, usage, companies, and infrastructure.
Benchmark development: We design and administer quantitative evaluations to measure AI model capabilities and performance, such as the FrontierMath benchmark commissioned by OpenAI.
Data-center intelligence: We can monitor the performance at leading-edge colocation facilities, both for sites we already track and data centers not yet in our database.
Technical briefings and explainers: We can distill complex AI concepts, trends, research papers, and technical developments into clear, actionable summaries or data insights for key audiences.

Expertise
Our expertise spans the entire AI value chain, from compute trends to economic modeling. We examine the driving forces behind AI, track the progress of AI capabilities, and measure and forecast its impact.
Highlights
OpenAI
In collaboration with OpenAI, Epoch AI developed FrontierMath to evaluate the mathematical capabilities of frontier AI models through hundreds of original, extremely challenging mathematical problems. We enlisted over 70 expert mathematicians to craft research-level problems and maintain ongoing evaluations of AI models on the benchmark.
AI Index
Epoch AI is a data provider for the AI Index Report, an annual report on AI by the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence. HAI relies on Epoch AI to provide accurate and up-to-date information on AI models, development progress and bottlenecks, and training and inference costs.
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)
Epoch AI collaborated with EPRI to produce a report analyzing the trends driving growth in power demand for training frontier AI models, and forecasting power demand for AI training runs and the AI sector as a whole. This report helps EPRI and its partners in the energy and technology industries understand and plan for AI’s impact on electric grids.
Other partners
Other partners include Google DeepMind, the UK Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, Advanced Research + Invention Agency (ARIA), and Sentinel Bio.
