Task classification
Metric cards are clickable in the live app and open the matching detail page.
Systems Inventory
Searchable, filterable record of every system and AI tool. Costs and licenses are validated on save; review flags surface missing owners, incomplete security reviews, and overlapping categories.

Workforce & Responsibilities
Editable role profiles with responsibilities, skills, assigned systems, targets, and decision authority. Each task is classified with a reason and accountable role — never to rank employees.

Classification does not rank employees or imply a role is unnecessary.
Business Goal Planner
A guided form produces a transparent, rule-based template suggestion. Human approval is required before it becomes an accepted action plan. Unsupported goals produce a structured worksheet.
Reduce customer response time while maintaining service quality and human escalation.
Horizon: 6 months · Dept: Customer Operations · Budget: $15,000
Current: First response avg 4.5 hours → Target: First response avg 2 hours
Plans are generated from templates, not a live AI model — labelled 'Template-based planning suggestion.'
AI-Use Assessment
A self-reported survey compared against the systems inventory's approved purposes, data sensitivity, and review requirements. Findings are derived, not verified monitoring.

Customer Support SpecialistTools: ResponseGen AI
Time saved 45 min/day · Training: Approved-use briefing
Comparison findings
Tasks mention billing/account work, but ChatBlitz AI is approved only for simple FAQ responses.
Training: None; confidence: Unsure.
Findings are self-reported comparisons — they flag potential unapproved use, sensitive-data concerns, missing review, and training needs.
Technology Performance
Capture promised vs observed performance with a transparent status rule. Missing measurements stay visibly missing — results are never manufactured.
Ticket triage routing
HelpDesk ProMeeting targetPromised: Reduce first-response time to 2 hours
Reply drafting
ResponseGen AIMeeting targetPromised: Cut drafting time to 12 minutes
FAQ deflection
ChatBlitz AIMeeting targetPromised: Deflect 25% of repetitive tickets
Status rule: target = baseline improved by 30% in the chosen direction. No baseline, no observed value, or zero sample = 'Insufficient evidence.'
Risk & Security Review
A checklist per system generates explainable findings. Legal requirements are kept separate and start unassessed — the register never invents laws or claims automatic compliance.

Each finding can be promoted to the action plan with one click.
Directory Access Review
Connect a provider-neutral directory (cloud, on-prem, or hybrid), import users and system permissions, and compare against the approved access roster. Excess access is flagged for review — never auto-removed.

Awaiting Owner/Admin approval
Access is removed only after an Owner/Admin approves, and only through a verified directory integration. The 1-hour target is a response expectation, not automatic removal.
Spending & Waste
Calculated from the inventory and self-reported effort. Estimated savings are not verified cash savings; a tool is never recommended for removal solely because usage is low.

Pilot Workspaces
Owner-only. Create isolated, server-persisted pilot workspaces to share with businesses and partners. Each workspace keeps its own data separate from the demo.
