Founder-led pilot
What the first readiness exercise taught us
This early pilot was completed with hands-on support while the repeatable inventory-to-evidence workflow was being explored. It is a founder-led example, not independent validation of compliance or a measured customer return on investment.
VoodooAI
3-person startup maps seven AI use cases in a founder-led exercise
The exercise turned a vague compliance concern into a structured inventory and a practical set of next actions for each AI feature.
— Founder, VoodooAI
- 7 AI use cases inventoried
- Initial exposure hypotheses documented
- Missing facts and evidence requirements identified
- Methodology gaps fed into the product roadmap
What this example can — and cannot — show
The reported output is an inventory of seven use cases, initial exposure hypotheses and a list of missing facts. That is a starting point for a review, not seven approved classifications. The distinction matters: discovering an evidence gap is useful progress even when the eventual decision remains open.
This page does not establish an independently audited outcome, time or cost saving, regulatory approval or a before-and-after performance comparison. No such figures are claimed. The founder-led context is disclosed so readers can judge the example on that basis.
What to agree for your own readiness exercise
- A bounded set of systems and the questions the exercise must answer.
- The people who can provide facts and the person authorised to review the conclusion.
- The evidence to retain, missing-information actions and a review date.
- A definition of progress that distinguishes completed records from resolved risks.
