YELLOW3 RESEARCH

Live instruments, not opinions.

yellow3 publishes original evidence on emerging technology, regulation and markets. Each instrument starts with a question that can be measured, keeps the sources visible and records what changed over time.

Research is where yellow3 puts its claims on the record. The work is designed to be inspected, challenged and updated, not merely read and forgotten.
FLAGSHIP INSTRUMENT

Where AI demand is actually flowing.

AI Model Adoption tracks routed AI usage by where the models were built, not where the user sits. It preserves regional share, model movement, a public record book and yellow3's weekly call.

MODEL ADOPTION / UPDATED WEEKLY
Measure the market before explaining it.

Announcements tell you what launched. Benchmarks tell you how a model performed under a test. Routed usage tells you where real demand is moving inside the measured source.

01
Regional share

Asia, the US, Europe and other origins measured by model origin.

02
Most-routed models

A weekly ranking of the models receiving routed traffic.

03
Record book

Streaks, movers and changes preserved rather than disappearing into the news cycle.

04
On the record

yellow3 makes a dated weekly call and grades it afterwards.

THE RESEARCH SHELF

Four public instruments. Four different questions.

The shelf should grow only when a question deserves a maintained instrument. A new page is not research infrastructure by itself.

Where is routed AI demand flowing by model origin, and how quickly is the balance changing?

THE STANDARD

Evidence should survive the conclusion.

A yellow3 finding should still make sense when somebody asks where did that come from? That means the source, date, uncertainty and later outcome remain visible.

01

Dated evidence

Sources are attached to the finding, not hidden behind the conclusion.

02

Measurable thesis

Where possible, the question is framed so reality can later prove it right or wrong.

03

Public grading

Calls are preserved and graded. The record does not reset when the story changes.

04

Visible uncertainty

Not established is different from disproven. The research should say which one it means.

PUBLIC DATASET

The Digital Product Passport market can be inspected.

The Supplier Register is research infrastructure, not a marketplace.

yellow3 maps organisations supplying Digital Product Passport capability and keeps the source and date behind the facts. Suppliers cannot pay to rank higher, buy a better finding or purchase verification.

191
organisations in the current public register
Generated from the same public dataset as the Supplier Register.
172
commercial suppliers
Non-commercial projects and bodies remain distinct.
33

Based on the current register snapshot.
No paid ranking. No paid verification. No composite supplier score.The register measures what a buyer can independently establish from the evidence available at the dated check.
HOW WE BUILD RESEARCH

From signal to decision.

The Decision Intelligence Framework turns a complex topic into a sequence that separates evidence from interpretation and interpretation from action. The detailed method stays public so readers can understand how a conclusion was reached.

01SignalWhat is actually happening?
02NoiseWhat is getting attention but matters less?
03EvidenceWhat supports the conclusion?
04RiskWhat could change the outcome?
