AI evidence readiness sprint

Can you reconstruct an AI decision six months later?

Audit Grill-Me helps regulated organizations find AI workflow auditability gaps before regulators, auditors, customers, or litigators do.

The auditability gap

Most AI risk is not model risk. It is workflow risk.

Your organization is deploying AI. But when a decision is questioned months later, the evidence needed to defend it lives in the gaps between systems, people, and tools.

7 of 9 evidence points are never captured. The failure is in the workflow, not the model.

The six-month reconstruction test

For one real AI decision, can you produce all eight?

Pick a workflow where AI touches a decision. Count what you could produce today, with evidence, not from memory. The honest count is your starting position.

0 / 8

Reconstructable evidence

If your team cannot produce the evidence trail, the decision exists but the record does not.

Audit Grill-Me evidence readiness sprint

A fixed-scope assessment, not an open-ended engagement.

Ten business days. One workflow. A defensible answer to a question your auditors will eventually ask, delivered as evidence, not opinion.

The thesis behind the sprint

The Auditability Gap

The book names the problem: non-reproducible intelligence in regulated systems. Audit Grill-Me turns that argument into a test for one real workflow.

The Auditability Gap book cover

Where the test applies

One method, several regulated workflows.

The public simulator uses fictional examples. The private sprint applies the method to one approved workflow under agreed handling constraints.

Compliance

Regulatory research assistant

Can the organization show which corpus, source version, prompt, answer, and analyst edits supported a filing response?

Insurance

Claims triage assistant

Can a disputed routing decision be tied back to the exact model, inputs, override, and retained evidence?

Legal

Contract review assistant

Can the original clause finding, suggested redline, lawyer change, and source library version be reconstructed?

Audit Grill-Me

Test whether you can defend it before someone asks.

One workflow, ten business days, a fixed price, and an evidence packet your audit committee can read.
