Preservative AI is not a model type, a training paradigm, or a product category. It is a methodological layer that can be applied to any language model, agent pipeline, or knowledge system — including, recursively, the systems used to run its own audits. Its purpose is not to generate, summarise, or optimise, but to keep the source primary, to audit how a claim is framed rather than amplify what it asserts, and to make what is absent as inspectable as what is present. Plurality is not a decorative add-on — marginalised epistemologies are built into the evaluation structure as architectural constraints. And the method is published openly, so every output can be independently audited, forked, and contested.
The original source stays primary, linked, and reachable — never overwritten by synthetic text.
Analyse how a communication is constructed, rather than restating what it asserts.
Make what is absent as inspectable as what is present — surface the gaps, don't fill them.

The audit trail for automated decision-making — built as a direct response to the EU AI Act and corporate ESG mandates.
An open-source framework for structured epistemic auditing. Eight analytical lenses any AI agent can load to surface what a text leaves out, flattens, or overstates — temporal flatness, epistemic inflation, agency diffusion. Inspectable and MIT-licensed, not a black box.
