Structured governance,
phase by phase.
Every engagement follows the same structure: Assess before you Design. Design before you Deploy. No tools are recommended before governance is defined. No phase begins before the prior one is complete. This is how defensible AI adoption works in practice.
All services are advisory in nature. KeaneAdvisors.AI does not provide legal advice, regulatory determinations, or compliance certifications. Each firm remains solely responsible for its own governance, supervision, and compliance decisions.
Every engagement begins
with Phase 0. No exceptions.
The AI Governance Phase 0 Assessment is the required starting point for all advisory engagements. It is not a formality. It is the diagnostic foundation that every downstream recommendation is built on.
Without a scored, documented baseline, there is no defensible governance framework to design. Without a governance framework, there is nothing to deploy. The sequence is not optional — it is the methodology.
Firms that complete the Phase 0 Assessment independently through the SaaS platform already have the inputs needed for Phase 1. Firms that want a structured advisory engagement beginning with Phase 0 can engage under the Master Services Agreement.
Complete the Phase 0 Assessment independently at app.keaneadvisors.ai. Starter plan is free. Paid plans include the PDF Governance Report. Use your results to guide Phase 1 internally or as the basis for an advisory engagement.
Start Free Assessment →Structured engagement under the Master Services Agreement. Begins with Phase 0 Discovery & Scoping, proceeds through Phase 1 Design and Phase 2 Limited Pilot Implementation under executed Statements of Work.
Schedule a Consultation →A structured preliminary engagement that evaluates current AI usage, workflows, governance posture, and operational objectives. Delivers a written Discovery Memorandum and one review meeting.
Advisory and architectural engagement that translates Phase 0 findings into a documented Design Framework. Covers AI use cases, workflow governance, supervision protocols, and data classification. Up to two review sessions.
Structured, controlled deployment implementing the Phase 1 Design Framework within a defined pilot environment. Validates governance checkpoints, tests supervisory safeguards, and evaluates operational performance.
We are an advisory firm.
The boundaries of our work are precise.
Five steps from first contact
to deployed governance framework.
A 30-minute no-obligation consultation to discuss your firm's current AI posture, any immediate concerns, and whether a structured engagement is appropriate. Schedule through Calendly. No commitment required.
Engagement begins under the Master Services Agreement with Statement of Work A. Three structured discovery sessions, review of current workflows and AI tool usage, and delivery of a written Discovery Memorandum with governance considerations and a proposed scope for Phase 1.
If the firm elects to proceed, Statement of Work B is executed. Over up to 20 professional hours, a written Design Framework is developed covering AI use cases, supervision protocols, data classification, risk identification, and success metrics for pilot testing.
If the firm elects to proceed, Statement of Work C is executed. Within a defined pilot environment, selected AI tools are configured, governance checkpoints implemented, and pilot performance evaluated over up to 40 professional hours. Two pilot review meetings with firm stakeholders.
For firms that complete Phase 2 and wish to maintain ongoing governance support, Phase 3 provides ongoing administration and optimization services. Scope, cadence, and pricing are defined in a separate Statement of Work based on the firm's specific needs following pilot completion.
Phase 0 is $500. Phase 1 and Phase 2
are scoped individually.
Phase 1 and Phase 2 pricing varies depending on the specific characteristics of the engagement. Every price is set in a fully executed Statement of Work before any work begins. The six factors that determine scope and price are:
Number of attorneys, staff, and locations affects the scope of governance documentation, training requirements, and supervision protocol complexity.
The number and complexity of practice areas, matter types, and existing workflow systems determines the breadth of governance design required.
Each tool in use requires vendor evaluation, data retention review, and use case documentation. More tools mean broader governance scope.
API integrations, practice management system connections, and document management linkages affect the technical scope of pilot configuration.
Whether the engagement covers all practice areas or specific workflows, all attorneys or a pilot group, determines documentation volume and review requirements.
Client-specific AI restrictions, cross-border data requirements, and sensitive matter types each require additional governance controls and documentation.
Every defensible governance program
begins with Phase 0.
Start with the free self-service assessment at app.keaneadvisors.ai, or schedule a consultation to discuss a structured advisory engagement. Either path begins with the same foundation: knowing where your firm stands before deciding what to build.
