IOSCO-compliant Index
An IOSCO-compliant index follows the IOSCO Principles for Financial Benchmarks — governance, transparent methodology, and data quality — applied here to AI labor pricing.
IOSCO alignment means the methodology is published, the inputs are auditable, and governance separates the people who run the benchmark from those who could benefit from moving it.
For AI labor, this is what lets a price index be cited in contracts, research, and regulatory contexts rather than dismissed as a vendor estimate.
