How much uncontrolled AI usage is happening in your organisation? Diagnose visibility gaps, data exposure risks, and governance maturity.
Your employees are almost certainly using AI tools you don't know about. ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Gemini — they're being used with client data, financial records, and sensitive business information outside any governance framework.
This isn't a future risk. It's happening now. In regulated industries — financial services, legal, accounting — uncontrolled AI usage creates GDPR exposure, professional liability risks, and audit trail gaps that most organisations haven't begun to address.
This assessment diagnoses the extent of shadow AI in your organisation across three dimensions: visibility, data exposure, and governance maturity. You can't manage what you can't see.
Some sectors have specific regulatory requirements around AI and data handling.

Shadow AI refers to the use of AI tools by employees without the knowledge, approval, or oversight of IT or management. This includes using ChatGPT, Copilot, or other AI tools with company data outside sanctioned channels — creating data exposure and compliance risks the organisation cannot see or manage.
The primary risks are data exposure (sensitive information shared with AI platforms), compliance breaches (particularly under GDPR and sector-specific regulations), and governance gaps (no audit trail, no quality control, no consistent standards for AI-generated work).
If you haven't explicitly assessed AI tool usage across your teams, shadow AI is almost certainly happening. The majority of knowledge workers have used AI tools at work, and most have done so without formal approval.
