A lightweight assessment tool that helps small AI teams and independent consultants get organized for ISO 42001—without spreadsheets, heavy consulting, or guesswork.
If you've tried to prepare for ISO 42001 or AI governance conversations, you've probably run into these problems.
You start with a simple checklist. Then it grows. Then you have five tabs, conflicting versions, and no clear picture of where you stand.
You can read the standard. You can download templates. But turning static documents into actual assessment progress is another matter entirely.
Hiring a big firm for readiness assessment often means waiting weeks for deliverables you could have structured yourself—if you had the right tool.
ISO 42001 is broad. You know you need to do something, but it's unclear where to begin or what "good enough" looks like for your stage.
Most GRC platforms are built for large organizations with dedicated compliance teams. They're overkill for a 15-person AI startup or a solo consultant.
Without a structured approach, gaps hide until someone—a client, a partner, a regulator—asks the hard questions.
Clear expectations matter. Here's exactly what you're getting—and what you're not.
AIFortess Assessor is a readiness and assessment tool. It helps you organize your work and identify gaps. Certification, legal compliance, and final audit decisions remain with accredited bodies and qualified professionals.
Four steps. No complexity. Just structured progress toward readiness.
Catalog the AI systems in scope. Describe their purpose, data sources, and deployment context.
Walk through relevant controls. Document what's in place, what's partial, and what's missing.
See where you stand. The tool surfaces gaps clearly so you know exactly what needs attention.
Generate a summary of your current state. Use it to guide next steps or share with stakeholders.
AIFortess Assessor is designed for a specific kind of user. If this describes you, we should talk.
AIFortess Assessor is early-stage software. That's a feature, not a limitation.
When you request access, you work directly with me—the person building this tool. Not a sales team. Not a support queue. The founder.
This means your feedback shapes the product. It means onboarding is personal. It means if something doesn't work for your use case, we figure it out together.
I'm not trying to close deals. I'm trying to build something useful for people doing real AI governance work. If that's you, let's talk.
— Rohit, Founder of AIFortess
AIFortess Assessor is currently in controlled early access. Seats are limited so I can work closely with each user. If you're a consultant or small AI team preparing for ISO 42001 readiness, request a walkthrough to see if it's a fit.
No pressure. No sales pitch. Just a conversation about your AI governance needs and whether AIFortess Assessor can help.
