AI FAIRNESS, BIAS & DECISION RISK SERVICES
01. AI Training
We explain AI, GenAI, bias and regulation in simple business language, with real examples from financial institutions and public entities in the region.
Your teams will learn to:
Understand where AI and scoring models are already influencing decisions
Recognize the main risks of unfair, opaque or poorly documented decisions
Know what questions to ask vendors and data science teams
Connect AI projects with GRC, Internal Audit, HR, Legal and Risk responsibilities
Delivery formats:
Executive briefings for Boards and C-Suite (2-3 hours)
Workshops for GRC, Internal Audit, HR, Legal and Risk (half-day or full-day)
Custom sessions on “How to Audit AI Projects” for internal audit teams
02. Data & Bias Validation
(Pre-Deployment)
Before you put an AI, scoring or decision model into production, we review the data, variables and governance that support it.
Our goal: help you identify and fix problems before they become compliance issues or public incidents.
We evaluate:
Data quality and coverage: Who is represented? Who is missing or underrepresented?
Protected attributes and proxies: Age, gender, location, tenure and variables that may correlate with them
Labels and rules: How are “good” and “bad” outcomes defined? Are definitions consistent and defensible?
Documentation and controls: Can your process withstand an internal or external audit?
Deliverables:
Data & Bias Validation Report with findings, risk ratings and recommendations
Evidence package for Internal Audit, Risk, Compliance and regulators
Practical remediation roadmap: fix data, adjust variables, strengthen governance
We work with your existing data science team and vendors. We do not build the model; we independently validate the data and decision logic.
03. AI Forensic Audit
(Post-Deployment)
When AI is questioned, we help you explain what happened.
If there is a complaint, incident or investigation related to an AI system, scoring model or automated decision tool, we act as an independent forensic expert.
We help you:
Reconstruct how the system made decisions over time
Analyze outcomes by group (age, gender, location and other relevant segments)
Determine whether issues stem from data, model configuration, thresholds or human overrides
Prepare evidence, narratives and visuals for internal review, regulators or court proceedings
Our forensic advantage:
In our region, judges and prosecutors still rely on the professional judgment of a human expert, not on software alone. We use specialized tools, but our value is:
A clear and defensible methodology
Proper chain of custody and evidence handling
Reports and explanations that non-technical decision-makers can understand
We manage risk. We audit AI decisions.
-
We focus on the risk of unfair, opaque or poorly documented AI-driven decisions
(hiring, credit, fraud, collections, public services). We do not build AI models or platforms.
We independently evaluate, challenge and document them.

You depend on a major vendor
(HR platforms, core banking, risk engines) and want an independent assessment of their models.
You are preparing for regulatory changes
(EU AI Act implications, regional data protection requirements)

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you build AI or GenAI models?
No. Many firms build AI. We audit, validate and explain it. That independence is what makes our assessments credible to regulators, courts and boards.
Do you use AI tools in your work?
Yes. We use advanced tools to analyze data and models. However, our findings and opinions are issued by human experts following a documented methodology. This matters in legal and regulatory contexts where human accountability is required.
Can you work with our existing vendors and platforms?
Yes. We review models and documentation from your current vendors and work alongside your internal data science and IT teams. We are not here to replace them; we provide independent oversight.
How do you align with global frameworks like the EU AI Act?
Our Decision Risk Framework incorporates principles from leading standards including the EU AI Act, NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and ISO 42001. We help you prepare for compliance even before regulations take full effect in our region.
What languages do you work in?
We deliver in Spanish and English depending on the audience, jurisdiction and document requirements.
