ADRI™ Trademark Policy
ADRI™ (Agent Data Readiness Index™) is an open-source project created and maintained by Verodat. The name "ADRI" and the phrase "Agent Data Readiness Index" are trademarks of Verodat.
This document outlines the rules for using the ADRI™ trademark.
Allowed Use
- You may use "ADRI" to refer to the official open-source project hosted at https://github.com/adri-standard/adri.
- You may use ADRI in descriptive sentences such as:
- "Our workflow uses ADRI for data validation."
- "This project integrates with ADRI standards."
Restricted Use
- You may not use "ADRI" or "Agent Data Readiness Index" in the name of your own software project, fork, or commercial product without written permission from Verodat.
- Forks must use a different name (e.g., "MyDataValidator – forked from ADRI") but may acknowledge origin.
- You may not use the ADRI logo or marks in a way that suggests endorsement or affiliation by Verodat without permission.
Attribution Requirement
All public references to ADRI must include attribution:

Why This Policy Exists
We encourage wide adoption of ADRI as an open standard. These trademark rules ensure:
- Users can distinguish the official ADRI project from forks or derivatives.
- Verodat's role as founder and maintainer is clear.
- Community contributions remain open, while the brand identity stays protected.
