The problem in Baltimore
AI is arriving through every channel at once: chat tools staff sign up for themselves, AI features switched on inside software you already pay for, and vendors pitching AI products. Most organizations have no written rules, no list of which tools are in use and no one accountable when something goes wrong.

AI inventory and risk assessmentKnow where AI is used and what could go wrong.
Ongoing AI oversightA part-time AI officer who keeps it current.
AI safety training for staffMake the policy real for every team.

Baltimore by the numbers
Baltimore businesses answer phones from rowhouse offices in Hampden and Canton, medical suites along the Jones Falls and I-83, and contractor yards in Dundalk and Halethorpe. The customer who gets voicemail calls the next listing. Answering every call, in English and Spanish, is the cheapest growth most Baltimore businesses never try.

Frequently asked questions
Is this legal advice?
No. We provide practical governance and training. Your attorney should review final policies, especially for health, financial or government data.
What is the NIST AI Risk Management Framework?
A voluntary framework from the National Institute of Standards and Technology for managing AI risk, organized into four functions: Govern, Map, Measure and Manage. We use it to organize your program.
We are a small organization. Is this overkill?
