For Law Firms and Board Risk Advisers · Triodian

For advisers

Add an evidence assessment to the board, risk and legal work you already do.

Boards and general counsel are being asked what evidence of AI behaviour their entity, and its providers, can actually produce. Triodian works with large law firms and board risk advisers in alliance with Triodian, so your clients get the technical half without you building the method.

Three halves

Answered separately, each half is defensible and none is usable.

Risk

What the board decides

Appetite, tolerances and triggers, in sessions the risk adviser facilitates. The board paper and the regulator conversation.

Legal

What can be required

Reach under each agreement, grading, accountability steps, privilege, and the flow-down clauses.

Technical

What can actually be produced

The register, the evidence obtainable at each boundary, a finding per arrangement, and the technical annex.

Who does what

No party marks its own work.

PartyRoleEngaged byWhere it stops
The clientThe CRO commissions the work; the GC instructs counsel; the board owns appetite.n/aDecides what, if anything, comes after the findings.
Board risk adviserFronts the board. Facilitates the appetite sessions and writes the board paper.The clientDoes not perform the assessment.
CounselOwns every legal call and the privilege position. Engaged before any finding is written; sees every draft first.The client, through the GCGives the legal half only.
TriodianOwns the method and the technical result. Builds the register, runs the assessment, operates the apps in the sessions.The risk adviser for the register; counsel for the findingsGives no legal advice. Presents no product.
Independent checkerChecks the assessment: is it sound, and are its findings supported?Counsel, separately from TriodianBuilds nothing. Gives no legal advice.

Commercial principles

Each party earns from its own half.

The client pays each party directly

Each adviser earns from its own half of the work.

No referral fees, either way

That keeps each recommendation clean and each adviser's independence visible to the client.

The annex goes to the board unedited

Advisers and counsel may comment on the technical annex, not change it.

Each party liable for its own half

Contracting, scope and liability are settled together before a pilot starts.

A pilot

One client, one decision point.

01

One client

An existing client with a sponsor, and AI inside at least one material provider.

02

An agreed set

A representative set of arrangements. Not the whole estate.

03

Three to four weeks

The technical half, fixed fee, with appetite sessions alongside.

04

A decision point

The register, a finding per arrangement and a technical schedule. The client decides what comes next.

Not in the pilot: gap filling, products or implementation. Those are separate decisions after the findings.

Under NDA

Test the technical half for yourself first.

So the decision rests on the method and the apps, not on a presentation.

How it scales

More than one engagement can run at once.

One method, reused

The same seven questions, register and evidence ladder at every client.

Schedules that carry over

Counsel's clauses and the technical schedule become the starting point for the next client.

Providers are shared

A provider that produces the evidence once can give it to every client it serves.

Delivery through advisers

Advisers facilitate, advise and check under the method; Triodian operates the instruments.

Get in touch

Thirty minutes to test whether a client has the question live.

AI inside a material provider, and a review, a renewal or a deadline coming.
