Why Tech SMEs are Losing European Deals
Most teams only assess risks to their own business. Enterprise procurement now demands you prove you have assessed the impact your AI has on their customers, employees, and society.
High-value buyers won't sign contracts if your AI poses unchecked physical, psychological, financial, or discriminatory harms to end-users. Without a formal assessment, you lose the deal.
You don't have the time to decipher complex frameworks like ISO/IEC 42005 to build an assessment process from scratch. Winging it with a spreadsheet will fail an enterprise audit.
I work with you to systematically identify where and how your AI systems interact with individuals, groups, and society throughout the entire system life cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Read below if you'd like any further clarification before booking a call. Anything I've missed off feel free to email me (details below).
This is a critical distinction in ISO 42001. A Risk Assessment looks inward: How could this AI harm our business? An Impact Assessment looks outward: How could this AI harm individuals, groups, or society?. Enterprise clients demand you do the latter before they let your software touch their customers.
Yes. Under ISO 42001 Annex A.5, you must conduct an impact assessment for every AI system that affects people, employees, customers, or third parties. It is a core auditable requirement.
No. My approach is designed specifically for agile Tech SMEs. I handle the heavy lifting of the documentation and stakeholder mapping, delivering clear, technical mitigation instructions so your engineers can stay focused on shipping code.
