About MSR Research
AI-native intelligence infrastructure for people who make decisions.
Our Mission
MSR Research exists to bridge the gap between emerging technology and the people responsible for governing it. We believe that every municipality, school district, and organization should have access to clear, actionable AI governance — not just those who can afford six-figure consulting engagements.
We combine AI-powered analysis with deep domain expertise to deliver intelligence products that help leaders make informed decisions about technology adoption, governance, and strategy.
How We Work
MSR Research operates as an Agent-Native Organization (ANO) — 34 specialized AI agents across 6 teams, each with celestial-themed identities, defined contracts, and earned trust levels. From Pixel (frontend) and Byte (backend) to Sage (AI policy advisor) and Aster (grant researcher), every agent has explicit handoff rules and is scored daily across 5 dimensions.
When you receive a policy from us, it has been generated by our agent pipeline, challenged by adversarial review (Curmudgeon), and passed through our publishing gate with autonomous quality scoring — the same infrastructure that powers CivicGrantsAI, MSR Intelligence subscriptions, and MSR Stories.
