Services
Independent AI governance assessment, certification, and advisory — from a 12-month assessment program to a point-in-time audit.
Core Service
AIQ™ Assessment
A 12-month program that goes beyond a point-in-time audit — AIQA partners with your organization to build a governance improvement roadmap, support implementation, and certify the results.
Baseline AIQ™ Audit
A full AIQ™ Audit establishes your starting point — a verified score across all five governance dimensions, identifying gaps and prioritizing areas for improvement.
Governance Roadmap & Implementation
AIQA works with your team to build and execute a tailored governance improvement plan — addressing policy gaps, technical controls, and organizational readiness.
Reassessment & Certification
A follow-up assessment validates governance improvements. Organizations achieving verified AIQ Scores of 115 or above — within the Established band — qualify for AIQA Certification and public use of the AIQA Certified mark.
What You Receive
- Everything included in the AIQ™ Audit
- Tailored 12-month governance improvement roadmap
- Ongoing implementation support and milestone tracking
- Reassessment and certification evaluation at program conclusion
- AIQA Certification for qualifying organizations, signifying independently validated governance maturity
AIQA Certification represents independent validation of AI governance quality. It does not constitute regulatory compliance or legal assurance.
Point-in-Time Assessment
AIQ™ Audit
A structured 8-to-12-week engagement that produces a verified, point-in-time view of your organization’s AI governance maturity across all five AIQ™ dimensions.
Survey & Data Collection
Quantitative assessment across all five AIQ™ dimensions, including structured surveys, documentation requests, and system-level data collection. AIQA works with your designated team to gather evidence efficiently.
Validation & Testing
AIQA analysts cross-verify reported data using model inspection, metadata analysis, audit trails, and AI-assisted verification. We don’t rely solely on self-reported data.
Scoring & Reporting
Delivery of dimension-level scores and an overall AIQ Score™ on the 0–200 scale, with detailed findings, peer benchmarking context, and actionable improvement recommendations.
Final Deliverables
Delivery of the complete AIQ™ Audit Report with verified metrics, dimension-level analysis, and an Assurance Statement suitable for ESG or regulatory disclosures.
What You Receive
- Detailed AIQ™ Audit Report with verified metrics and dimension-level analysis
- Point-in-time AIQ Score™ on the 0–200 scale with peer benchmarking context
- Assurance Statement suitable for inclusion in ESG, annual, or regulatory disclosures
Add-On Service
Embedded AI Advisory Board Service
A senior AIQA executive or designated advisory board member joins your board or advisory committee as an independent, third-party AI governance advisor. This provides continuous oversight, guidance, and external credibility to stakeholders, capital partners, and regulators.
Unlike traditional consulting engagements that end with a report, the Embedded Advisory Service provides ongoing, real-time governance guidance as your AI strategy evolves.
IPO & Capital Raise Preparation
Validate AI strategy and governance maturity to investors during fundraising, due diligence, or public offering.
Board-Level AI Governance
Provide your board with independent AI expertise for fiduciary oversight without the cost and complexity of a dedicated hire.
AI-Centric IP Portfolios
Ongoing quality assurance for enterprises building AI-driven intellectual property that requires continuous governance attention.
Independence Safeguards
AIQA maintains strict structural separation between advisory engagements and scoring activities. Embedded advisory services are provided by designated advisors who do not participate in the client’s scoring or certification evaluation. This separation preserves the integrity of the AIQ Score™ and the credibility of AIQA Certification.
Add-On Service
AIQ™ Improvement Services
AIQA’s Improvement Services help organizations strengthen AI governance practices in advance of or following an AIQ™ assessment. These engagements are structurally independent from the scoring process — designed to prepare organizations for assessment, close identified gaps, or build governance maturity from the ground up.
AI Governance Frameworks
Development of comprehensive governance structures aligned with the EU AI Act, NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and ISO/IEC 42001.
AI Asset Inventories & Valuation
Establishment of inventories and valuation protocols for financial reporting, M&A due diligence, and intellectual property management.
Bias & Drift Monitoring
Design and implementation of monitoring programs to sustain ethical and technical compliance across production AI systems.
AI Risk Mitigation Plans
Implementation of risk frameworks supporting audit readiness, insurance qualification, and board-level reporting.
