How our Audit works
Pre Audit Scoping
BABL AI walks your team through a series of questions to determine where you currently stand. We then inform your team what documentation is needed for our audit process, and help you understand everything for compliance, including how to test the various selection rates and impact ratios of protected categories as required by the law. NO SOFTWARE DOWNLOADED OR PLATFORM INTEGRATIONS REQUIRED!
Audit Review
Once all your documentary evidence has been submitted for evaluation, our well trained certified auditors review your documentation against our criteria. During this review process, BABL AI auditors might ask for more supporting documentation or interact with your internal and external stakeholders, such as employees or other third-parties, to verify the truth of statements made in the submitted documentation. At the end of the audit review, the auditors reach an overall audit opinion that determines the result of the audit.
Final Report
Once an opinion is determined, BABL AI will draft a public summary report for each Algorithm, if mandated by the regulatory body, and present the final report to your team.
FAQs
Why should I get an Algorithmic Audit?
