Orientation, not instruction
We help readers understand evidence and prepare questions. We do not tell a person what treatment to choose.
Why we exist
Families should not need a PhD to understand a paper.
Autism Research Compass was created from a father’s experience: too much important research is hard to find, hard to read and too easy to overstate. We are building a calmer bridge between evidence and everyday questions.
Dignity is a quality standard
We describe autistic people as people, not problems to solve, and recognize different language preferences.
Lived experience belongs here
Research expertise and lived expertise answer different questions. Strong coverage needs both.
ARCFounded in France. Built for a global community.
An independent beginning
Building trust before building scale.
This beta is founder-led and independent. It has no clinical advisory board yet, and we will never imply otherwise. Our next stage is to form a compensated review circle including autistic adults, parents, clinicians and research-method specialists.
Until then, every article names its source, shows its limits and invites correction.
