Human‑centric governance for AI, data and trust

Because automated decisions require human explanation.

For UK consultancies, agencies, and SMEs using AI tools — and increasingly asked to explain them.

We help organisations explain how AI‑supported decisions affect people — clearly, proportionately, and with accountable human oversight.

When silence creates risk

AI and automation are now part of everyday work. For many organisations, the challenge is not the technology — it is the explanation. Without a clear narrative, clients make their own assumptions, teams use inconsistent language, and questions only surface when something goes wrong. Technical documentation alone is not enough. You need clarity in how decisions are explained — and understood.

Light integrity scan

A Light Integrity Scan is a rapid, human‑centred assessment of whether your organisation can clearly explain how AI and automated decisions affect people.

It answers a simple question: if asked today, could you explain your decision‑making clearly, consistently, and with accountable human oversight?

What Commsonaut does

We work at the intersection of communication, organisational change, and governance. We remove ambiguity, helping you explain:

  • The “what”: what your systems do — and do not do
  • The human element: where judgement remains in the loop
  • The accountability: who is responsible for outcomes — and why

How we work

We believe in clarity over complexity. Our approach ensures you can explain your work calmly and credibly to boards, clients, regulators, and the public.

  • Explainable systems: mapping responsibility where automation meets human oversight
  • Proportional governance: practical, light‑touch structures — not bureaucracy
  • Reputation management: turning AI transparency into a competitive advantage

Who we work with

We work with consultancies, agencies, and SMEs that:

  • Already integrate AI or automation into their workflows
  • Do not have a dedicated AI or governance function
  • Prioritise trust and clear communication over technical jargon

Is this relevant for your organisation?

If you’re weighing whether this is relevant for your organisation, these are the most common questions we hear.

We already have a legal team — do we need this?

Yes. Commsonaut focuses on communication, not compliance. Legal and compliance teams define what is permissible. This work ensures that how decisions are explained — to clients, stakeholders, and the public — is clear, proportionate, and credible.

How long does a Light integrity scan take?

Typically around two weeks from the initial conversation to final output. The process is designed to be focused and minimally disruptive to your day‑to‑day work.

What does it cost?

AI explanation check‑In: from £250
Light integrity scan: from £1,495
All work is scoped clearly and proportionately — you will not be asked to engage in unnecessary complexity.

We’re a small team with a limited budget — where do we start?

Start with the free resources. They provide a practical way to begin clarifying how you explain AI‑supported work. Many organisations find that working through these materials helps clarify whether a Light integrity scan would be valuable.
