Is Your GenAI
Ready to
Go Live?

Chatbots, copilots and AI agents fail in ways a model validation will not catch: confident wrong answers, leaked data, manipulated prompts, silent vendor changes. Pick one GenAI system, answer twelve questions, and see whether it is ready to launch, what must be fixed first, and how your controls compare with the practices the FCA highlighted in its October 2026 AI review.

01 Pick the System

Choose the closest match. It changes which questions are treated as critical, so a gap that would be tolerable in an internal tool can block the launch of a customer-facing one.

02 Answer Twelve Questions

Two questions per area. Answer for this one system as it would run on launch day. Questions marked Critical are launch blockers for the system you picked.

Pick a system and answer all 12 questions.

Practitioner Insight
Most GenAI launches that go wrong were tested like software and governed like a model. Neither is enough. Treat the prompts, retrieval sources and guardrails as the system, test them against the harms you can foresee, and keep a human route open for everything else. The firms that launch safely decide in advance what “wrong” looks like, how they will see it, and who can switch the system off.

Launching GenAI in a regulated firm?

LINXS Advisory works with banks and financial firms on GenAI launch readiness, evaluation and red-teaming plans, use-case governance, and the line between model risk and AI risk. To sort your whole AI inventory and assign each system the right controls, see our AI Inventory Sort.
