Why AI Right™ exists
Built for SMEs & independent organisations
In most organisations AI is already being used before anyone has formally decided how it should be. Larger enterprises answer that with dedicated teams, specialists and budgets. Smaller organisations still face the same decisions about tools, people, policy, risk, opportunities and ownership, without any of that support. In Ireland, 17.2% of small enterprises use AI compared with 57.7% of large ones. AI Right exists to make that journey manageable for the smaller organisation.

The evidence behind the approach
Structure and value can go together
Irish research indicates that AI use is growing faster than the strategy and oversight around it. Around 10% of SMEs report having an AI strategy, compared with about 50% of multinationals, while 80% of organisations reported employees using free AI tools without built-in enterprise security controls and 61% of managers acknowledged AI use even where it was officially restricted.
The same research found that organisations with more developed AI governance were more likely to report major productivity gains, 30% compared with 3% of those without a formal AI policy. This is an association reported in the research, not evidence that writing a policy causes productivity gains, but it reinforces a practical point: putting structure around AI does not have to slow adoption down.
