What is AI Governance?

AI Governance is the framework you use to manage AI risks, stay EU AI Act compliant, and accelerate AI adoption. Not slowdown. But foundation.

16 modules — from foundation to audit readiness

Each module builds on the next. From initial go decision to complete AI Register and management reporting.

52 ready-made templates

Checklists, registers, policy documents. Every template includes sample completions: a good example AND a bad example (learn from both).

KPI dashboard and management reporting

Real-time insight into your AI governance status. For management, leadership, and oversight.

EU AI Act compliance built in

All modules, templates, and guidelines are tailored to the EU AI Act. No interpretations needed.

The beginning: make the real work possible.

  • • Go/No-go decision — management buy-in
  • • Assemble governance team (broad: IT, Legal, Business, HR)
  • • Define scope: which AI systems, which risks?
  • • Initial stakeholder interviews
Week
3–4

Registrations

Visibility: know what you have.

  • • Set up AI Register: everything you do with AI
  • • Risk classification: high / medium / low for each system
  • • Draft governance policies
  • • Define first dashboard metrics
Week
5–8

Deep Dive

In-depth work: build the real governance structure.

  • • Detailed governance policies: roles, responsibilities, escalation
  • • AI vendor assessment framework
  • • Privacy impact assessments (for AI with personal data)
  • • Employee training program design

Embedding

Lock it in: documentation, monitoring, insight.

  • • KPI dashboard live: first real measurements

Week

Readiness

Final sprint: audit-ready and first reporting.

The entire journey takes 12 weeks. Each week builds on the previous. No background work needed — you have everything you need.
