Recursive self-improvement, measured against reality.

Grounding long-horizon AI systems in verifiable evidence.

DeepGrounding is an independent research organization studying how self-improving AI systems can remain honest, calibrated, and useful as their planning horizons lengthen.

Research program

Three questions guide the work.

Recursive self-improvement

What forms of self-refinement, self-evaluation, and autonomous research loops produce real improvement rather than cosmetic optimization?

Long-horizon agents

How should we evaluate systems that operate over many steps, revise their own plans, and accumulate hidden failure modes over time?

Grounding and evaluation

Which external signals, tests, audits, and verification protocols keep self-improving systems connected to truth instead of their own preferences?

Operating principles

Publish cautiously. Measure directly. Make claims falsifiable.

DeepGrounding treats recursive self-improvement as an empirical measurement problem: a system should not receive credit for improvement unless its gains survive independent checks.

Current work focuses on calibration floors, evaluator drift, verifier circularity, and the gap between self-reported progress and externally grounded performance.

Public research pages are being prepared. This site will expand as manuscripts, code, and reproducibility bundles become ready for release.
