Assess · the entry point
AI Governance First-Look
A paid diagnostic that shows you, quickly and cheaply, where AI is used in your organisation and what the real risks are, so you can decide whether to do the full piece.
Most practices already have AI inside the building: an ambient scribe, an admin tool, staff using chatbots on their own initiative. The First-Look finds each use, runs our defensibility assessment over the highest-risk ones, and tells you plainly whether to proceed, fix, or stop.
You receive
A current-state snapshot of AI use across the organisation
The top risks, named specifically, with the obligation each one touches
A go or scope recommendation
A one-page read you can take to a board or funder

The diagnostic exists so a first engagement with an unfamiliar firm is a low-risk decision. If the findings say you do not need the Baseline, we say so.
Baseline · the lead engagement
AI Governance and Readiness Baseline
A defensible position on every AI use in the organisation: what is running, what the risks are, which controls exist, who owns them, and what must be true before the team relies on the tools.
The Baseline is built on our fifteen-control defensibility assessment, applied to each AI use, with the position computed from evidence. The output is written for the people who must answer for it: the board, the clinical-governance committee, the funder, the insurer.
You receive
A current-state map of AI use
A risk and control register, with named owners and review dates
A readiness recommendation
A board or clinical-governance-ready summary, presented in one briefing session

Good to know
How we charge.
Fixed before we start. The fee is confirmed in writing, against a defined scope, before any work begins.
No commission. We take no margin on any tool, licence, or hardware, and we are independent of every vendor. If we recommend a tool, it is because the evidence supports it.
No lock-in. The deliverables are yours on payment. You can take the record to another adviser at any time.
