49 frameworks · 59 cross-referenced concepts

The framework
index.

Every standard Impact Vision can assess against, in one searchable place. Each one is exposed through the framework_assess tool, the MCP server, the REST API and the Python SDK — and each ships with cross-references to IRIS+ metric IDs, so one well-evidenced answer can satisfy several disclosures at once.

A note on scope. Impact Vision helps you assess readiness and alignment against these frameworks — it is not a substitute for legal advice, a regulatory filing, or third-party assurance. Framework names and content belong to their respective standard-setters. Where a standard is proposed, pending or in beta, the tool labels it as such rather than quietly treating it as law.

Assess a company against all of them.
