Common Sense AI Ratings v1

Beta

by Common Sense Media

CSM's 8-dimension, 4-tier risk framework for consumer AI products — enforced as platform-level gates.

16 rules

Ages 0–17

About this movement

Common Sense AI Ratings v1 is CSM's public risk framework for consumer-facing AI products. Every rated product is scored on 8 dimensions (including Keep Kids & Teens Safe, Use Data Responsibly, Be Transparent & Accountable, Put People First) and classified into one of four risk tiers: Low, Moderate, High, or Unacceptable. The framework also separates AI products by Type — Multi-Use (ChatGPT-style general chatbots), Designed-for-Kids, and Use-Case products (homework helpers, companions, tutors). As a Phosra standard — subject to a pending CSM design-partner agreement — AI Ratings v1 maps directly onto Phosra's AI safety rule categories: Unacceptable-tier products are hard-blocked, High-tier products require parent unlock, and dimension thresholds enforce per-axis floors. This standard also encodes the NY S9051 and CA SB 867 prohibitions that CSM's framework anticipates.
