From $5,0002–4 weeks
Public agencies receive quotes structured to fit their procurement rules.
You own everything we produce.
Who this is for
Organizations usually call us about this when:
You’re planning an AI project and aren’t sure your data is accurate or allowed to be used.
Customer contracts or consents may limit how your data can be used with AI.
An earlier AI pilot produced unreliable results.
Overview
AI is only as good, and as lawful, as the data behind it. We assess the data you plan to use with AI for quality, permissions, sensitivity, and governance, so you know what can be used, what needs work, and what should stay out of AI systems entirely.
What’s included
- Inventory of data sources planned for AI use
- Data quality and completeness review
- Review of consent, contracts, and permitted uses
- Identification of sensitive and restricted data
- Data governance gaps and owners
- Prioritized readiness plan
How it works
Inventory
We identify the data sources your AI plans depend on.
Assess
We review quality, permissions, sensitivity, and governance.
Plan
You receive a readiness plan showing what’s ready and what needs work.
How it works for your organization
The same service, tailored to the obligations and realities of each sector.
Private Sector
Companies use the assessment before AI projects so models are built on data they’re allowed to use.
- Customer and product data for AI projects
- Contract and consent restrictions
- Data quality issues that weaken AI results
- Governance owners for key data
Public Sector
Agencies use the assessment to confirm resident and program data can lawfully support AI tools.
- Program and case data for AI use
- Statutory limits on data use
- Data quality across systems
- Records and retention requirements
Nonprofits
Nonprofits use the assessment to see whether client and program data can safely support AI.
- Client, donor, and program data
- Consent and funder restrictions
- Quality of data in small systems
- Practical clean-up priorities
