Not using AI yet? Start with readiness. Staff already using it? Choose governance.
Know how AI is used in your business, and show you are in control of it.
Your staff are probably already using AI, often with customer or personal information, and often without agreed rules. UK data protection law already applies to that use, including rules for decisions AI makes about people. Customers, insurers and regulators are starting to ask how you control it, and the EU AI Act applies if your AI outputs are used in the EU.
Government research shows how wide the gap is. Only 17% of UK businesses using AI have any AI policy or guidelines, and 46% are not aware of any regulatory guidance on AI (DSIT, UK Business Data Survey 2026). Only 24% of businesses using or considering AI have processes to manage its cyber security risks (Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2025/2026).

I'm a fractional CTO who's spent the last decade building and running technology for companies that can't afford to get compliance wrong. I work across AI governance for regulated industries in the UK, EU and US, covering everything from the EU AI Act to GDPR to FCA requirements.
My background is hands-on, not theoretical. I've been CTO or founder at half a dozen companies, including a SaaS analytics platform for supply chains, a real-money gaming platform under FCA-adjacent scrutiny, and several ventures building generative AI products from the ground up. That range means I've seen how AI risk actually plays out inside a business, not just how it looks in a framework.
I built Claridyne because most AI advice for SMEs is either too generic to act on or too technical to trust. My assessments identify what to do next, backed by someone who's actually built and shipped the systems I'm assessing.
No. The readiness assessment is designed to help you understand your starting point, including when your business has not adopted AI yet.
3 full days on Monday to Friday, excluding England and Wales bank holidays, starting when you submit the completed readiness questionnaire. Weekends and bank holidays do not count towards the deadline. Your portal displays the calculated deadline.
Describe your processes, systems and types of data. Please do not submit passwords, API keys, personal customer records or special-category personal data.
No. It is an advisory review of your AI governance, based on your answers and any documents you share. It identifies gaps and priorities. It is not legal advice, does not certify compliance with any law or standard, and does not include security testing.
