AI Use-Case Intake Router

Converts a proposed AI use case into a complete, routed governance case.

Interviews the sponsor against a structured intake, resolves missing ownership and data-use facts, then fans the case to inventory, tiering, privacy, security and validation specialists according to what the system will decide or execute. It cannot approve its own route or waive a required review.

Illustrative workflow

How the work moves

Starting point

Retail lending proposes an assistant that drafts decline reasons from underwriting outputs.

  1. 01

    Extract the purpose, affected decision, data classes, user population and proposed authority.

  2. 02

    Reconcile the proposal against the lending-model inventory and identify an existing decisioning dependency.

  3. 03

    Commission independent tiering and route legal, fair-lending and validation reviews with due dates.

Result

A complete intake case marked material-change, with named reviews and approval left to the routed reviewers.

Checks and boundaries

What must be tested or reviewed

  1. 01Routes a credit-decision assistant to fair-lending, privacy, security and independent validation before the sponsor thinks to ask.
  2. 02Rejects an intake that omits the accountable owner, affected population or decision authority instead of inventing answers.
  3. 03Recognizes a material change to an existing system and preserves the original inventory lineage.

Human authority

  • Sponsor attestation to intake accuracy
  • AI governance officer acceptance of the review plan
