Insufficient coverage
Insufficient coverage to score
Only 1 of 6 governance dimensions are confidently known for Apple Intelligence — too few for a headline score. What we do have is shown below.
How is this scored? →

Higher = more protective of you, the user/customer — a deliberately user-protective lens, not a universal “good vs bad” score. Computed algorithmically from Apple Intelligence’s cited governance stances; no dimension we haven’t confidently read is ever counted against the score. Free, reproducible, and never purchasable.
