Public governance tools

Two free tools for structured self-assessment, part of the AI in Regulated Institutions inquiry. Neither needs an account or an email to show a result.

NIST AI RMF · EU AI Act · ISO/IEC 42001

Two tools, one path

Start with the Pulse for a sixty-second placement. When you want the detail behind it, the Assessment works through each of your AI use cases and produces a brief your board can read.

Time
15 to 20 minutes

Open the Assessment

Open methodology

Both tools describe their scoring or interpretive method. Users should review the method and limitations before relying on a result. The Assessment publishes its full rubric, control library and red-flag rules on its methodology page.

The tools support internal discussion. They do not provide legal, regulatory, audit, or compliance advice.
