AI Assurance & Evaluation

AI assurance that works
in practice.

AI governance can't live only in policy documents. Mach Lilies helps companies implement practical controls: system inventories, risk classifications, human oversight, evaluation records, vendor reviews and audit-ready evidence — the assurance that keeps AI defensible as it scales. Mach speed. Lily craft.

Why AI assurance

Governance that lives in a PDF protects no one. Assurance has to be implemented and evidenced.

As AI moves into real workflows, leaders and regulators want the same thing: confidence that AI systems are inventoried, risk-assessed, overseen by humans where it matters, and backed by evidence. Mach Lilies turns AI policy into working controls — practical, proportionate, and built into how your teams actually operate. We focus on assurance you can show an auditor, not a framework you file and forget.

What we do

Assurance controls.

Practical, proportionate controls that make AI adoption defensible — implemented, not just documented.

01

AI system inventory

A living register of the AI systems and agents in use — what they do, the data they touch, and who is accountable.

InventoryRegisterOwnership
02

Risk classification

A pragmatic risk rating for each AI use case, so oversight and controls are proportionate to the stakes.

AI usage policies

Clear, usable policies for how AI may and may not be used — written to be followed, not filed.

Human oversight design

Where a person must stay in the loop, how they approve, and how exceptions escalate.

Vendor AI due diligence

Structured review of third-party AI tools and providers — data handling, training use, security and reliability.

Audit evidence packs

The records that prove your controls work: evaluations, approvals, incidents and reviews, ready for audit.

How we work

Inventory, classify, control, assure.

Four movements that turn AI policy into controls you can operate — and evidence you can show.

01 / Inventory

Know what's in use

Find and register the AI systems and agents already operating across the business.

02 / Classify

Rate the risk

Tier each use case so controls and oversight match the actual stakes.

03 / Control

Implement oversight

Put human oversight, policies and evaluation records into day-to-day operation.

04 / Assure

Evidence and review

Maintain audit-ready evidence and run ongoing assurance reviews as AI use grows.

Who we help

For trust-led organisations.

For risk, compliance and leadership teams that need AI adoption to be safe, defensible and proportionate.

i

Practical, not theoretical

Controls built into how teams work — not a framework that sits on a shelf.

ii

Proportionate

Oversight matched to risk, so low-stakes uses aren't strangled and high-stakes ones aren't exposed.

iii

Evidence-ready

Everything is recorded, so you can show an auditor what works and why.

iv

Aligned to standards

We work to recognised security and AI-governance practices, including ISO 27001-aligned controls.

What you can expect

Assurance you can show an auditor — inventories, risk tiers, oversight, and evidence that holds up.

Questions

AI assurance, answered.

What is AI assurance?

AI assurance is the set of practical controls and evidence that give an organisation — and its auditors and regulators — confidence that AI systems are known, risk-assessed, overseen and behaving as intended. It spans system inventories, risk classification, usage policies, human oversight, evaluations and audit evidence.

Is this the same as an AI policy?

No. A policy states intent; assurance proves it. We help you write usable policies, but the value is in implementing the controls and producing the evidence that shows they actually work in day-to-day operation.

Do you guarantee regulatory compliance?

We don't make regulatory guarantees, and you should be wary of anyone who does. We implement practical, proportionate controls aligned to recognised standards and frameworks, and we structure evidence so your compliance and legal teams can demonstrate diligence.

How does this relate to AgentOps?

AgentOps governs AI agents at the technical level — permissions, logs, evaluations and incident response. AI assurance sits above it at the organisational level — inventory, risk classification, policy, oversight and audit evidence. They reinforce each other, and we deliver both.

Can you review third-party AI tools we use?

Yes. Vendor AI due diligence is a core part of assurance — we review how third-party tools handle your data, whether they train on it, and their security and reliability posture, so you can adopt them with eyes open.

How are assurance engagements structured?

Usually an implementation engagement to stand up the inventory, risk model and controls, followed by periodic assurance reviews — for example quarterly — as your AI footprint grows.
