Can this board show it oversees AI?
Insurers, enterprise customers and regulators are starting to ask. 65% of Irish directors say they don’t understand the new AI rules. The board tier exists so the answer, with evidence, is yes.
What the board tier adds
- A quarterly board pack, drafted from your live register: posture, movements, obligations, horizon items and recommended decisions.
- One-click director attestations, written to an append-only assurance trail.
- Regulatory horizon briefings for your sector, with action-required items that need acknowledgement.
- Multi-entity support for group structures.
- A quarterly review by an ISO 42001-certified lead auditor who stands behind your register.
The quarterly rhythm
- 1
Before the meeting, the pack drafts itself from the register. The executive edits one summary paragraph and issues it.
- 2
Directors receive the pack and attest in one click. The attestation is timestamped and immutable: the moment of assurance, recorded.
- 3
Between meetings, horizon briefings keep the board ahead of what is moving: the Omnibus, the AI Office of Ireland, sectoral designations.
Why this matters now
Directors’ duties don’t wait for enforcement. The standard a court or regulator applies is whether the board exercised reasonable oversight, and reasonable oversight of AI is becoming legible: an inventory, classifications, obligations being worked, and board review on the record. A spreadsheet and a verbal update cannot produce that. An append-only register can.
