“The question is not only whether your company uses AI. The question is how that AI is actually functioning inside the business.”
— Alcoden Free AI Operations Self AssessmentWhat the assessment examines
Observable conditions.
Not broad assumptions.
The assessment helps leadership examine where AI is used, what depends on it, how consistently it is operated, what evidence exists, and where controls or responsibilities may be unclear.
02 · Evidence
Separate knowledge
from assumption
from assumption
Focus on observable conditions so leadership can distinguish what it believes from what the organization can demonstrate.
- Available supporting evidence
- Unanswered operating questions
- Unclear controls or procedures
03 · Direction
Turn findings
into next steps
into next steps
Use the baseline to identify reasonable internal improvements and conditions that may deserve deeper operational review.
- Areas that appear structured
- Potential DIY improvements
- Interconnected issues to investigate
How it works
Observe. Organize.
Decide what follows.
The purpose is not simply to produce a score. It is to turn individual responses into a clearer view of the organization’s current operating state.
Step 01 · Observe
Answer from current conditions
Work through structured questions across the same 11 core dimensions used within Alcoden’s broader AIGOV methodology.
Step 02 · Organize
Build an initial baseline
A self-scoring framework organizes answers into strengths, uncertainty, missing evidence, and areas that need closer attention.
Step 03 · Decide
Choose the right level of action
Distinguish narrow improvements your team may address internally from deeper issues involving multiple systems, controls, or responsibilities.
Questions it helps leadership ask
Replace “Are we using AI properly?”
with something useful.
What are we using—and where?
Identify tools, workflows, departments, and operating dependencies.
What does it affect?
Clarify the business processes, decisions, records, or customers touched by AI-enabled work.
What evidence supports our practices?
Separate established operating facts from assumptions that have not been verified.
What should happen next?
Identify internal improvements and conditions that may warrant specialized assistance.
What the result means
A starting point.
Not a certification.
Baseline
A structured snapshot
Your completed assessment can provide an initial picture of the company’s AI operating environment at the time you answer.
Internal action
DIY opportunities
Some findings may be narrow enough for your internal team to address with the information and capability already available.
Deeper review
Interconnected conditions
Other findings may cross systems, workflows, controls, evidence requirements, and organizational responsibilities.
Designed without a sales commitment
Understand where you stand
before deciding where to go.
01 — No client requirement
Use it without an engagement
You do not need to become an Alcoden client to complete the assessment.
02 — Evidence-centered
Look for what can be shown
The method encourages the organization to distinguish observable conditions from belief.
03 — Action-oriented
Decide what is proportionate
Use the findings to determine what can be handled internally and what deserves deeper review.
