Better Health for All

Palantir's data platforms have demonstrated significant positive health impacts, including an almost 20% drop in A&E admissions in six months

and an 83% reduction in patient placement time, leading to a 30% decrease in the mean length of stay for sepsis patients. The company's Foundry platform supported over 50 peer-reviewed publications in 2023, contributing to research in areas like multiple myeloma, glioblastoma, liver cancer, and maternal health. However, significant concerns exist regarding the transparency and data responsibility of its healthcare AI systems. There is a lack of transparency in AI algorithms, which are described as proprietary, non-auditable, and deployed without consent, leading to a lack of public trust. NHS England's Data Protection Impact Assessment flagged risks such as data leakage, re-identification of anonymized data, and insufficient testing or encryption, with concerns about parts of the Federated Data Platform lacking a legal basis and the National Data Opt-Out not applying to all aspects. The company does not hold healthcare-related patents, produce food or nutritional products, or have products with addiction potential.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

Palantir's CEO compensation for the fiscal year ending in 2024 was 20 times the median employee's pay.

The company's 10-K filing, dated February 2026, does not explicitly mention any new regulatory actions, violations, fines, or compliance issues related to labor practices, worker safety, or human rights. While Palantir accrued US$1.7 million in employment discrimination penalties, this stemmed from a settlement in April 2017 regarding systemic hiring discrimination against Asian applicants, which falls outside the past three years.

Kind to Animals

Palantir Technologies Inc. is a software company, and its core business model does not involve manufacturing physical products, using animal-derived ingredients, conducting animal testing, or engaging in animal agriculture. Consequently, KPIs related to cruelty-free certification, alternative testing methods, humane certifications for animal operations, ethical input substitution, supplier audits for animal welfare, cage-free sourcing, animal testing policy and volume, innovation investment in animal-free technologies, and animal agriculture ethics are not applicable. The company fosters a pet-friendly work environment

and partnered with the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) in December 2023 to develop an AI tool for equine safety. However, these actions do not provide measurable data for the quantitative KPIs. No specific, measurable evidence was found for wildlife conservation impact, animal-free R&D collaboration, or public policy engagement.

No War, No Weapons

Palantir Technologies derived 55% of its FY 2024 revenue from government clients, with a substantial portion from defense and intelligence agencies.

This includes a $178 million contract with the U.S. Army for AI-enabled military trucks and a strategic partnership with the Israeli Defense Ministry to supply technology for an ongoing war. Its core platforms and AI tools are explicitly dual-use, applied in military decision-making, including targeting and battlefield logistics. While Palantir mentions a commitment to preserving individual rights and references external ethical AI principles, specific internal safeguards for its AI systems with military uses are not detailed, and its AI-based predictive policing systems support Israeli surveillance of Palestinians in occupied territories. Storebrand Asset Management divested its holdings due to concerns that Palantir's work for Israel might violate international humanitarian law and human rights , and Palantir did not respond to requests for information. Critics have questioned the opacity of its big-data surveillance in conflict zones , and Palantir acknowledges contractual requirements limiting public disclosure.

Planet-Friendly Business

Palantir achieved carbon neutrality in 2024 by purchasing credible, scientifically-verified carbon offsets that exceeded its total emissions.

The company also participates in a sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) program, with SAF certified by ISCC EU. Palantir reported total Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas emissions of 23,018 tCO2e in 2024. The company states that as a software company with leased office spaces and no physical manufacturing, it has relatively low energy and utility consumption. While committed to achieving Net Zero emissions, Palantir's targets submitted to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for validation in 2023 were not accepted.

Respect for Cultures & Communities

Palantir lacks a comprehensive human rights policy and does not conduct adequate human rights impact assessments related to its business relationships, including with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Its Council of Advisors on Privacy and Civil Liberties does not have a mandate to assess human rights impacts, and the company does not disclose a process to identify, assess, and act on salient human rights risks or engage with impacted stakeholders. Palantir provided a reactive response to an inquiry from Amnesty International in July 2025 regarding alleged human rights violations. The company has a grievance mechanism accessible to workers and external stakeholders, but its anonymity is unclear. , and it is not specified as community-specific or with coverage details.

Palantir eliminated all single-use plastic water bottles from its London office as of early 2024.

The company also implemented waste reduction initiatives in its London office, including a 94% reduction in single-use canned water consumption from September 2023 through September 2024. Furthermore, partnerships with Fooditude and OLIO led to a 57.5% decrease in emissions from food waste and saved three tonnes of CO2e over 2024 in the London office.
