AI Features

AIIA embeds AI throughout the audit lifecycle — from planning assistance to evidence analysis, workpaper drafting, and continuous monitoring. All AI features operate under strict governance with RBAC enforcement, human approval gates, and full audit logging.

Governance Principles

Every AI feature in AIIA follows these non-negotiable principles:

1. Suggestions Only — Never Automatic

AI outputs are always suggestions that require explicit human action to apply. No AI output is written to official records without human confirmation.

2. RBAC-Constrained

The AI respects the same RBAC rules as the user. It can only access data the user is authorized to see. Cross-role and cross-organization data leakage is prevented at the retrieval layer.

3. Fully Audited

Every AI interaction generates an AuditLogEvent with:

  • User who requested the AI action
  • Model and provider used
  • Input prompt (sanitized)
  • Output generated
  • Whether the suggestion was accepted or rejected
  • Confidence score
  • Source citations

4. Citations Required

All AI outputs include source citations — links to the specific workpapers, findings, or documents that informed the response.

5. Confidence Scoring

Each AI suggestion includes a confidence score (0–100%) indicating how certain the AI is about its recommendation. Low-confidence suggestions are flagged for extra scrutiny.

Provider Configuration

AIIA supports multiple AI providers with hot-swappable configuration:
