Automatically flag privacy risks and generate compliance reports

AI reviews data usage events for privacy risk, alerts your team, and logs the findings for audits.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each data usage event.

The problem it solves

Your team is supposed to catch every risky use of customer data, but reviewing usage logs by hand is slow and something always slips through. When a regulator or auditor asks for proof, pulling together the paper trail is a scramble.

Who it fits

Privacy officers and legal or compliance teams at companies handling regulated customer data.

How it works

  1. Watches for new data usage events and also runs a scheduled audit sweep
  2. AI assesses each event against privacy policy and applicable regulations
  3. AI classifies the risk level and flags anything critical or high risk
  4. Sends an instant Slack alert for serious risks and routes others for approval
  5. Logs the compliance record and emails a full audit report
What you get

Privacy incidents caught before they become violations

Your compliance team gets flagged the moment a data usage event looks risky, with a full record kept for your next audit.

What you get

A logged compliance record, a Slack alert for urgent risks, and an emailed audit report.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, a Slack workspace, a Gmail account, and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
