AIVO Standard

A separately-published framework authored by Paul Sheals and others, currently at version 3.5. Open under CC BY 4.0 with DOIs assigned through Zenodo. Core measurement is the Prompt-Space Occupancy Score (PSOS), supplemented by financial-translation metrics including AIVO Visibility Beta (AIVB) and Revenue-at-Risk (RaR). Operates a nine-stage methodology and emphasises governance-grade auditability, ISO/IEC 42001 alignment, and EU AI Act compatibility. Difference from AVO: the acronym is similar but the disciplines are structurally distinct. AIVO operates a single-metric measurement focused on prompt-space occupancy with persistence and decay weighting; AVO operates a paired AS-VS model with predictive baseline and empirical verification. AIVO and AVO are parallel methodologies that may inform one another; neither subsumes the other.
