WEKID™ Resources Library
Ratified standards, foundational publications, research, demos, tools, partners, and implementation resources — gathered in one library with each item’s role made explicit.
Normative publications
WEKID Standards Catalogue
Use the Standards page as the authoritative register for current releases, companion standards, superseded versions, and conformance relationships.
Epistemic Maturity and AI Decision Authority
The normative core: maturity, the Trust Bridge, authority levels, gating, conformance, and governance.
Sector Calibration and Authority Alignment
The normative companion for adapting thresholds and authority constraints without weakening the protected core.
Publication model
Standards, research, and foundation — each has a different role
WEKID-STD-001 v1.1 defines the normative core, while WEKID-STD-002 v1.0 governs sector calibration as a normative companion. The Foundational Whitepaper v1.3 preserves the intellectual basis and explanatory rationale. Research papers are informative and can influence the standard only through the governed RFC process.
Featured resources
WEKID™ Governed Delivery
AI is changing who can build software. The governance model has to change with it. Governed Delivery is WEKID's approach to governing software without prescribing how people build it. DevSecOps for the Masses allows this to happen. Instead of standardizing the development tool, coding assistant, platform, or pipeline, it standardizes the evidence every build must produce and uses that evidence to determine how much authority the software has earned.
WEKID™ Open Standard for Epistemic Maturity and AI Decision Authority 1.0
WEKID™ Open Standard defines the requirements, invariants, gates, authority rules, conformance expectations, and governance structure of the WEKID framework. It establishes how epistemic maturity is evaluated, how the Trust Bridge governs admissibility, and how decision authority is assigned and constrained.

WEKID™ Open Standard for Epistemic Maturity and AI Decision Authority v1.1
Version 1.1 preserves the architecture, invariants, scoring model, Trust Bridge, Authority Levels, gates, precedence rules, and conformance structure ratified in Version 1.0. It adds a formal relationship to WEKID-STD-002 and strengthens requirements for formal sector calibration profiles.

WEKID™ Open Standard for Sector Calibration and Authority Alignment Protocol v1.0
WEKID-STD-002 v1.0 is the ratified normative companion standard to WEKID-STD-001 v1.1. It governs the development, validation, ratification, publication, and maintenance of sector calibration profiles.

WEKID™ Foundational Companion Paper Version 1.3
This companion paper was reviewed and approved by the WEKID Community RFC process. It augments the WEKID Foundational Paper and isolates one determinant that the paper does not yet formalize: the incentives and engagement of the human who holds or oversees the decision.
Download documentDevSecOps for the Masses
DevSecOps for the masses is research article that argues how DevSecOps must work for the AI-built application era. It does not mean everyone learns DevSecOps. It means the pipeline arrives with the code, generated by the same act, on by default, and not editable by the thing it governs. And the authority to release arrives separately — attached to a person.
Read ArticleGoverning Machine Learning: The Model is Not the Decisions
Machine learning is probabilistic AI, and so is generative AI. This article applies the Epistemic Maturity Model and the Decision Authority Model to classical ML, using ten cases from the WEKID Failure Library to show why the failures that matter are almost never accuracy failures.
Read ArticleInteractive Governed Delivery
The Governed Delivery Platform - Interactive is a WEKID reference implementation: an application somebody built in an afternoon, with no tests, no review, just prompt engineering, is brought under governance while you watch. The demo takes about twenty minutes. Requires a login by arrangement.
Request AccessPublished Governed Delivery
The Governed Delivery Platform is a WEKID reference implementation: a build pipeline much like the one your teams already run, with WEKID Governance added. This is a published version offers a guided tour that starts on its own and takes about ten minutes. Nothing to install, no sign-up, nothing you can break. The site is published read-only.
