What you get
- An AI governance readiness score across the practices the EU AI Act, US state AI laws, ISO/IEC 42001, and NIST AI RMF assume
- Your gaps, ranked by exposure impact
- A view of potential regulatory and deal-risk exposure based on the gaps you report
- A recommended path: inventory your AI systems, classify them, adopt policies, train your team, and track obligations
Why AI governance readiness matters now
EU AI Act transparency duties and penalties took effect 2 August 2026, and states from Texas to California enforce their own AI laws today. Enterprise buyers increasingly ask for AI governance evidence in security questionnaires — gaps here stall deals before regulators ever call.
The assessment is a prioritization tool: it tells you which gaps to close first, not whether you would pass a regulator’s review. For a deterministic EU AI Act classification with article citations, use the EU AI Act check.
After the assessment
A score on its own does not make anyone compliant. The work is converting each gap into an owned, dated task: register your AI systems, classify them by risk, adopt AI policies, complete Article 4 literacy training, and keep evidence attached to each obligation.
Shieldra does that part — AI system inventory, deterministic classification with citations, policy templates, training, and obligation tracking. Plans start at $99/month with a 14-day free trial.
Frequently asked questions
How many questions is the AI governance assessment?
It is 9 questions and takes about two minutes. Your readiness score, gap list, and next steps appear immediately.
Which frameworks does it cover?
The EU AI Act, US state AI laws, ISO/IEC 42001, and NIST AI RMF — the assessment scores your organization against the governance practices those frameworks assume.
Do I need an account or a credit card?
No account and no credit card. The assessment runs free in your browser.
Is this the same as the EU AI Act check?
No. The EU AI Act check is a deterministic classifier that assigns your system a risk tier and lists role-scoped obligations with article citations. This assessment is broader and shallower: a readiness score across AI governance practice areas. Many teams run both.
