Tailored assessments and advisory that empower organizations at every AI maturity stage, mitigating risk, accelerating enablement, and ensuring compliance across the regulatory landscape.
Financial institutions, law firms, and PE/VC firms face an accelerating convergence of AI opportunity and regulatory scrutiny. From the U.S. Treasury's Financial Services AI Risk Management Framework to the EU AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001, the compliance landscape demands structured, evidence-based governance, not ad hoc policies.
Every engagement follows a proven progression, meeting clients wherever they are and advancing them toward measurable governance maturity. Whether you are piloting your first AI tool or scaling an enterprise program, the Assess-Align-Activate-Assure journey provides the structure and accountability to move forward with confidence.
This iterative framework is embedded in every AIGA engagement, from the rapid QuickScan entry point to long-term Advisory partnerships, ensuring your governance posture strengthens with each cycle.
Not every organization is ready for a full index evaluation on day one. AIGA's Entry Accelerators are designed as front-door engagements that deliver immediate, actionable intelligence, while laying the foundation for deeper governance investment. Start here to eliminate ambiguity, surface risk, and build the internal case for AI governance.
2–4 weeks | Fixed fee | AI Tool Clarity
Maps your AI landscape, surfaces 3–7 prioritized use cases, and evaluates each for impact, feasibility, readiness, and governance complexity. Embeds NIST AI RMF alignment from day one.
1 week | Fixed fee | Rapid risk diagnostic
Delivers high-level exposure scores across regulatory, operational, and reputational domains. It is ideal as a first step for PE/VC portfolio scans or law firm compliance audits with zero prior governance work required.
A structured 2–4 week discovery engagement that transforms exploratory conversations into a prioritized, governable AI roadmap. Through stakeholder workshops, ideation sessions, and scoring rubrics aligned to NIST AI RMF, AIGA surfaces 3–7 high-value AI opportunities evaluated across impact, feasibility, readiness, and governance complexity.
A one-week rapid diagnostic that delivers an authoritative snapshot of your organization's AI risk exposure, conducted before a single governance framework is formally adopted. Using targeted questionnaires and system inventories, the QuickScan generates high-level exposure scores across three critical domains.
Gaps mapped to EU AI Act, Treasury FS AI RMF Govern-Measure functions, and U.S. consumer protection requirements for AI-driven financial decisions
Systemic vulnerabilities in AI deployment pipelines, model management, vendor dependencies, and data quality, flagging immediate remediation priorities
Exposure from high-risk AI in financial decisioning, client-facing applications, and portfolio company practices that could attract regulatory or public scrutiny
Every QuickScan delivers an executive dashboard, a ranked list of your top-5 AI risks with standards mappings, and an ARI preview score, creating a compelling, data-backed case for deeper governance investment, and bridging directly to the full Core Indices evaluation.
The centerpiece of AIGA's governance intelligence platform. Three distinct indices that can be unified in a single assessment, deliver quantified scores across risk, maturity, and deployment capacity. Every score maps explicitly to NIST AI RMF, Treasury FS AI RMF or ISO/IEC 42001 functions, giving financial institutions, law firms, and PE/VC firms the evidentiary baseline required for board reporting, audit defense, and regulatory engagement.
100+ questions mapping risk exposure across NIST AI RMF and EU AI Act dimensions. Financial services firms use ARI to satisfy Treasury FS AI RMF Measure functions for ongoing AI monitoring and supervisory readiness. Identifies cybersecurity, model bias, and data privacy risks with prioritized remediation guidance.
Evaluates governance maturity across 8 domains aligned to ISO/IEC 42001. Quantifies gaps like policy formalization, accountability structures, and third-party oversight. Typical clients achieve 20–40% score lifts within 6–12 months through targeted, roadmap-driven fixes, with AMI tracking demonstrating measurable progress.
Assesses your organization's capacity to scale AI safely and sustainably, evaluating talent, infrastructure, governance culture, and change management readiness. PE/VC firms use AEMI to benchmark portfolio companies; law firms use it to guide phased AI adoption without overextending compliance resources.
AIGA's indices are not self-referential scorecards. Every question, domain, and recommendation traces directly to globally recognized and sector-specific frameworks, ensuring your governance posture is auditable, defensible, and aligned to the standards your regulators, clients, and partners require.
Treasury FS AI RMF alignment addresses enforcement exposure under consumer protection, fair lending, and AI-driven financial decisioning regulations, giving banks the documented framework needed for supervisory examinations.
NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001 mappings support client data governance obligations, portfolio AI due diligence standards, and ethical AI commitments that institutional LPs and counterparties increasingly require.

AI governance is not one-size-fits-all. The risk profiles, regulatory obligations, and strategic use cases differ materially across financial services, law, and private equity. AIGA's entire service portfolio is calibrated to these distinctions, ensuring every engagement delivers sector-relevant intelligence, not generic frameworks.
AIGA engagements are designed for measurable impact, not compliance theater. Every service in the portfolio connects to quantifiable outcomes that matter to boards, regulators, and investment committees alike.
Assessment Sprint delivers prioritized, governable AI opportunities in under a month, which eliminates months of internal debate
Rapid regulatory, operational, and reputational exposure scores with an ARI preview. Providing immediate value for PE/VC and law firm clients
Clients following roadmap-driven fixes achieve measurable governance maturity gains within 6–12 months of index baseline

A unified platform of services designed to support every stage of the AI governance journey, from first exploration to institutional-grade program maturity.
The regulatory window for proactive AI governance is narrowing. Financial institutions, law firms, and PE/VC firms that establish defensible governance frameworks today are better positioned for supervisory examinations, client mandates, and the competitive advantage that responsible AI enables.
Start with the engagement that fits your current stage, whether a rapid Risk Radar QuickScan to surface immediate exposures, or a focused AI Use Case Assessment Sprint to identify your highest-value AI opportunities, or a full index evaluation to establish the baseline your board demands. AIGA is your partner at every step.
