What problem does it solve?
Shipping AI features without eval criteria, regulatory classification, or cost projections leads to failed launches, compliance exposure, and runaway vendor spend. This Skill applies a Chief AI Officer's six forcing questions to any AI plan before commitment.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Eval Discipline Check: Blocks any AI feature that lacks a defined eval set, error-rate SLO, and fallback behavior.
- Regulatory & Model Decisions: Classifies use cases under the EU AI Act and recommends API vs fine-tune vs build using companion calculator scripts.
- Cost & Org Planning: Projects 12-month cost trajectories and identifies the correct next AI hire (AI engineer vs ML engineer vs research scientist).
- Use Case: Before signing a multi-year LLM API contract, run the review to get a SHIP/SHARPEN/BLOCK verdict with TCO comparison and risk tier.
Quick Start
Ask the AI to run a CAIO review on your AI feature plan, covering eval criteria, EU AI Act risk tier, model build-vs-buy choice, and cost projection.
