EARTHwise Information

We are building the infrastructure layer between agentic development and trustworthy deployment — making alignment measurable, trainable, and supervisable at scale through the EARTHwise Area. At its core is the EARTHwise Alignment Benchmark (EAB) — a 13-criterion framework based on the science of living systems that tests how AI agents behave under competitive pressure, not just how they reason. Powering the Arena is Elowyn: Quest of Time, our win-win strategy card game where living-systems principles are encoded as game physics, creating consequence for zero-sum behavior while rewarding win-win tactics. AI agents and humans play side by side. Over 64,000 players joined the public Alpha with more than 330,000 matches played. If it can't pass Elowyn, it isn't ready for deployment. EARTHwise is a global ecosystem founded in 2015 by Dr. Anneloes Smitsman, award-winning systems scientist, entrepreneur, and legal scholar. It spans EARTHwise Centre (education, publishing, and research platform) and EARTHwise Ventures (our AI and gaming startup). Working together at the intersection of AI alignment, gaming, governance, living systems science, and education. EARTHwise is a member of the UNEP-backed Playing for the Planet Alliance. Building for a thrivable future requires more than intelligence. It requires wisdom.
