Question 1

Our AI is FDA-cleared. Do we still need governance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FDA clearance covers the device, not how it performs in your data, workflows, and patient population — or your obligations under state law and accreditation.

Question 2

Does this cover administrative AI, or only clinical AI?

Accepted Answer

Both. Asher governs administrative and clinical AI across imaging, bio-signal, and text — vendor-supplied and homegrown — in one inventory.

Question 3

We do not have a data science team. Can we still use this?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The platform is built for organizations without dedicated data science staff, with co-authoring wizards and pre-built, regulator-aligned frameworks.

Question 4

Do you replace our systems or compete with our AI vendors?

Accepted Answer

No. Asher layers onto your existing PACS, EHR, and clinical workflows, and complements vendor dashboards with independent oversight they cannot provide.

Question 5

I am only responsible for my department, not enterprise AI. Does this still fit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FORGE scales from a single department up to the enterprise — your team's SOPs and risk controls run on their own while rolling up into, and inheriting from, enterprise policy.

Question 6

We already have AI governance policies. What does Asher add?

Accepted Answer

Asher operationalizes them: import your existing policies, align them to the framework, and turn them into workflows, controls, and evidence — closing the gap between policy on paper and oversight in practice.

Question 7

How fast can we stand up a governance program?

Accepted Answer

In days, not months. The blueprint wizard plus pre-aligned templates produce a configured program you operationalize immediately. One engagement reached an operational framework in six weeks.

Question 8

Can we bring our existing policies?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload and parse existing policies, align them to the framework, and use AI-assisted gap analysis to enhance partial ones.
