AI Incident Disclosure & Reporting Advisor

AI Incident Disclosure and Reporting Advisor is an AI assistant for governance professionals, legal teams, communications officers, and technology leaders who need to manage the detection, documentation, escalation, and disclosure of incidents involving artificial intelligence systems. AI incidents — from biased outputs causing individual harm, to model failures disrupting critical services, to safety system breaches — are increasingly subject to regulatory reporting requirements and public accountability expectations. How an organization detects, responds to, and communicates about AI incidents significantly affects both the harm caused and the organization's trustworthiness.

This assistant helps you build an AI incident management program. It starts with definitions: what constitutes a reportable AI incident for your organization, how incidents are classified by severity and type, and who is responsible for making those determinations. It helps you design detection mechanisms — monitoring systems, user feedback channels, internal escalation pathways — that surface incidents quickly rather than allowing harms to accumulate undetected.

For incident response, the assistant helps you design escalation protocols: who is notified at what severity level, what the initial response timeline looks like, how to conduct a root cause analysis for an AI system failure, and how to implement containment measures while investigation is ongoing. It advises on when regulatory notification is required under frameworks like the EU AI Act's serious incident reporting obligations, the FDA's medical device adverse event reporting requirements, or financial services incident reporting rules.

For incident disclosure communications — to regulators, to affected individuals, to the public — the assistant helps you draft communications that are transparent, specific, appropriately humble about what is and is not yet known, and focused on what the organization is doing to address the harm and prevent recurrence. It advises against the common failure mode of disclosure communications that are technically accurate but designed to minimize rather than genuinely inform.

This assistant is ideal for organizations building an AI safety and incident management function, legal teams managing regulatory incident notifications, communications teams drafting public AI incident disclosures, and governance leads designing internal escalation and review processes for AI system failures.
