AI governance ecosystem

How much AI
is enough?

Every vendor answers "more." Peritix helps you answer for yourself — by capturing the AI your people already use, governing it with defensible policy, and measuring what actually creates value in YOUR organization.

4 minutes. 8 questions. Any device. Your AI Literacy level, instantly.

Level 3 for most staff. Safe, governed, productive users — not prompt engineers. Right-sizing is redirected investment, not less AI.

The problem

AI adoption is happening. Governance isn't.

Your people are already using AI — often on personal accounts, with organizational data, in good faith. Meanwhile, leadership is under pressure to move fast on AI without the three things a real program requires: visibility into what's actually in use, a policy people have signed and understood, and a way to tell activity from value.

Invisible

Shadow AI is your real AI program

Ungoverned, informal use of AI tools by well-meaning employees is the primary driver of AI risk today. You can't govern what you can't see — and right now, you can't see it.

Unsigned

A policy nobody has signed — or understood — isn't a policy

The value of an AI policy isn't the document — it's distribution, comprehension, and attestation. A policy people sign without understanding protects no one, and one you can't prove they signed won't survive an audit or an incident.

Unmeasured

Nobody can say what's working

Tools get adopted on demos and vendor benchmarks, then never evaluated against real workflows. Some of the best "new AI use cases" turn out to be capabilities you already own.

Right-sizing isn't doing less with AI. It's redirecting investment from what looks impressive to what measurably works.

— The Peritix operating principle
How it works

Capture. Govern. Measure. Then certify.

One platform takes your organization from "we honestly don't know what's happening" to a documented, defensible, measured AI program — without a large IT team.

AI READY

Capture

Surface the AI usage already inside your organization — the tools, the tasks, and the sentiment — and turn it into a real use case inventory.

via Peritix Play + guided discovery

Govern

Stand up a steering committee, distribute your AI policy, and collect signed acknowledgments from every user before tool access is granted.

via policy distribution + attestation

Measure

Evaluate every approved workflow against CASEE — five dimensions that separate tools that demo well from tools that deliver.

via the CASEE framework

Certify

When your program has run and the evidence is in, earn AI Ready Certification — a credential built on demonstrated practice, not a checkbox.

the summit, not the starting line
The measurement layer

Two instruments. One honest picture.

Peritix is built on two proprietary frameworks: CASEE evaluates whether an AI workflow is actually performing, and the AI Literacy Scale places every person in your organization on a common 0–10 measure.

CASEE — how we score every AI workflow

ConsistencyAccuracySecurityEfficacyEfficiency

One workflow, one month. A document-drafting workflow scored on all five dimensions — efficiency slipped below threshold. That's a finding, not a failure.

This month's score Acceptance threshold
CASEE Framework
  • Consistency

    Same input, same quality, every time. A tool you can't predict is a tool you can't trust.

  • Accuracy

    Correct against ground truth — verified by a person, not assumed from a demo.

  • Security

    Data handled within policy. The quality of the output never excuses the risk of the input.

  • Efficacy

    It actually solves the task it was approved for — the whole task, not the easy half.

  • Efficiency

    Worth the time, review effort, and cost. Speed means nothing if checking the work eats the savings.

From no concept of AI to a safe, governed, productive user. Level 3 is the target floor for most of any workforce.

Organizational Capability

Power users, workflow builders, and the champions who carry adoption across teams.

Technical Practice

Engineering the systems. Most organizations buy this capability rather than build it.

Frontier

Recognized authorities and global pioneers advancing the field itself.

Grounded in and consistent with the Dreyfus model, Bloom's revised taxonomy, UNESCO's 2024 AI Competency Frameworks, and peer-reviewed AI literacy research. Most organizational value lives in the first band — which is exactly where the free assessment starts.

Peritix Play

Discovery that feels like a game. Because it is one.

A live, host-driven session your whole organization joins from their phones. In twenty minutes you get what a survey never delivers:

  • Honest signal on shadow AI — anonymous participation surfaces what people would never put in writing.
  • A candidate use case pipeline — open-ended answers flow straight into your governed inventory.
  • A baseline literacy read — sentiment and knowledge across the room, before you spend a dollar on training.

Why Peritix
Our founders built and secured technology programs inside government and regulated industries — where an unsigned policy or an unmeasured tool isn't an inconvenience. It's a liability, and the tip of an iceberg of technical debt. Peritix operationalizes that playbook.
  • TEAMA founding team of practitioners, not theorists — decades of combined experience leading security, IT, and AI programs inside government and regulated industries, including one of the nation's first municipal AI policies.
  • PRACTICEBuilt on hard-earned experience assessing and implementing technologies for state and local government, financial, health, and defense industries.
  • BOOKAuthors of Hiring AI, the practical guide to bringing AI into an organization the way you'd bring on a new employee.
  • AUDIENCEPurpose-built for government and highly regulated industries — the places where governance is never just a footnote — by people who know how to deliver real programs with small teams and tight budgets.
