AI Governance Care

Keep your AI register, policy and reviews current every month, with a named team checking each new AI tool.

New AI tools reach your business every month, and a register written once soon falls behind. AI Governance Care keeps it current. We review up to three new AI use cases or vendors each month against your policy and the EU AI Act, update the register and brief your AI owner in a monthly note. Leadership gets a short report each quarter. It helps you prepare; it is not legal advice.

  • Up to three new AI tools or vendors reviewed monthly
  • AI system register kept current, with a monthly regulatory note
  • Quarterly two-page leadership report and policy wording update
$1,275/mo 3-month minimum, paid upfront Up and running in 5–15 working days

What it is

AI Governance Care is a monthly service that keeps your AI governance current after the first build. Each month we review up to 3 new AI use cases or vendors, update your AI system register, send a one-page regulatory note and answer questions by email. Each quarter you get a leadership report.

Why businesses buy it

Most companies write an AI policy and register once, then move on. Within months, staff adopt new tools, vendors add AI features and the register no longer matches reality. Nobody owns the job of checking each new use case. AI Governance Care gives that job a steady rhythm. A named team reviews new tools against your own policy and the current text of the EU AI Act. Your AI owner gets a clear monthly briefing, and leadership gets a quarterly summary. It helps you prepare and keep records; it is not legal advice or a certification.

Problems this solves

Your AI register was accurate once but no longer matches reality

Each month we update your AI system register with every reviewed tool and decision. The register stays in your own documents, so it reflects the AI tools staff actually use.

New AI tools arrive without anyone checking them against policy

We review up to three new AI use cases or vendors each month against your policy and the current EU AI Act text, then record the outcome and any conditions.

Leadership has no clear picture of AI use and open risks

A two-page leadership report arrives each quarter, covering register changes, open risks, decisions taken and next actions. It is short enough to read in one sitting.

Policy wording falls behind as rules and tools change

Each quarter we update your AI policy wording where rules or tools have changed, and your approver signs it off. It helps you prepare; it is not legal advice.

A good fit if

You already have an AI register and AI policy, or have bought the EU AI Act Readiness Assessment or AI Usage Policy System.
Your company has 20 to 250 staff and nobody whose job is AI risk.
New AI tools and vendor AI features keep appearing, and nobody checks them against your policy.
Leadership wants a short, regular report on AI use, open risks and decisions taken.

Not the right fit if

You have no AI register or policy yet. Start with the EU AI Act Readiness Assessment or the AI Usage Policy System.
You want software that tracks AI systems and risks on a live dashboard. See AI Governance Dashboard.
Your staff need a shared AI workspace with a written usage guide before anything else. See Team AI Assistant Rollout.
You need more than three reviews every month. Add a 'Custom requirements' note at checkout for a Change Quote.

How it works

  1. You give us edit access to your AI register and policy documents, name your internal AI owner, and confirm who approves policy wording.
  2. During onboarding we read your register and policy, note open items, and agree how new tools reach us for review.
  3. Each month we review up to three new AI use cases or vendors against your policy and the current text of the EU AI Act.
  4. We update the register with each decision and send a one-page regulatory note to your AI owner.
  5. Each quarter you receive a two-page leadership report and, if rules or tools have changed, updated policy wording for approval.
  6. Between calls, your AI owner can email questions, and we answer within two business days.

Expected benefits and how to measure them

  • Helps keep your AI register in step with the tools staff use
  • Can make AI decisions easier to explain to leadership
  • Helps you spot risky AI use before it spreads
Register coverage
Count the AI tools in use that are recorded in the register, compared with the count at onboarding.
Review turnaround
Track the time from a new tool being raised to a recorded decision, using the dates in the register.
Open risks
Compare the open-risk count in each quarterly report with the count in the first one.

Before you start: Record how many AI tools are listed in your register today and how many you know are in use. Note any open risks already logged.

These are things to track, not promised results. Outcomes depend on your data, your team and your market.

Running costs

There are no running costs. The work happens in your existing register and policy documents, in tools such as Google Sheets, Excel, Google Docs, Notion or Confluence. You do not need to buy any software for this service.

Custom requirements

Add a note at checkout if you need something specific. If it fits within the Scope Card it is simply included. If it goes beyond it, you get a written Change Quote within two working days, and that work starts only once you accept it, with its time added to your delivery date.

How billing works

AI Governance Care is itself the ongoing service, so there is no separate maintenance. The first three months are paid upfront at checkout, then it continues month to month. You can cancel any month after that, and the register, notes and reports stay yours.

$1,275/mo

The first 3 months ($3,825) are paid at checkout. After that it runs month to month and you can stop any month.

Questions about this product

Is AI Governance Care legal advice?

No. AI Governance Care helps you prepare and keep good records, but it is not legal advice and it is not a certification. We review new AI use cases against your own policy and the current text of the EU AI Act. Where a question needs a lawyer, we say so. Decisions on legal risk stay with you and your advisers.

What do I need in place before starting AI Governance Care?

An AI register, an AI policy and a named internal AI owner. If you do not have a register or policy yet, start with the EU AI Act Readiness Assessment or the AI Usage Policy System. Either one gives us a starting point to keep current. We then need edit access to those documents and one person who approves policy wording.

What counts as one review in AI Governance Care?

One new AI use case or one AI vendor. For example, a team that wants to use an AI note-taker, or a supplier adding AI features to software you already use. We check it against your policy and the Act, then record the decision and any conditions in your register. Up to three reviews fit in each month.

What if we need more than three AI reviews in a month?

Extra reviews are quoted through a Change Quote. Tell us by email or in the portal, and we send a written quote before doing the extra work. It helps to raise busy months early, for example before a new department starts using AI tools, so the reviews can be planned around your deadlines.

How does the three-month minimum work for AI Governance Care?

AI Governance Care is $1,275 a month, and the first three months are paid upfront at checkout. That covers onboarding, a full quarter of reviews and your first leadership report. After three months it continues month to month, and you can cancel any month. There is no separate maintenance fee.

What is in the quarterly AI leadership report?

A two-page summary written for managers rather than specialists. It covers changes to your AI system register, open risks, decisions taken that quarter and suggested next actions. It can go straight into a board pack or management meeting. In the same quarter we update your policy wording if rules or tools have changed.

What happens to our AI register and reports if we cancel?

They stay yours. The register and policy live in your own documents, so every update we made remains in place. You keep the monthly notes and quarterly reports. You remove our edit access when you leave. Only the monthly reviews, calls and updates stop.

Does AI Governance Care include AI incident response?

No. Incident response is not included. If something goes wrong with an AI tool, you can raise it with us by email and we can reflect agreed changes in the register and policy. Handling the incident itself sits outside this service. For security controls around AI systems, see the AI Security category.
