[Paste: tools in use, processes assisted by AI, frequency]

Build an audit readiness checklist:

Documentation:
- AI usage policy (current version, approved by management)
- List of approved AI tools and use cases
- Data classification policy (what can/cannot go into AI)
- Prompt library (approved prompts, version controlled)

Process controls:
- Human review evidence for every AI-generated output used in financial reporting
- Segregation between AI operator and reviewer
- Exception log (instances where AI output was rejected or significantly modified)

Audit trail:
- Log of AI tool usage (who, when, what prompt, what output)
- Input data preserved (can recreate what was fed to AI)
- Output data preserved (what AI produced before human edits)
- Final version preserved (what was actually used/published)

Testing:
- Periodic accuracy testing results (prompt validation)
- Comparison of AI outputs to manually-prepared versions
- Error rate tracking over time

Format: Audit readiness checklist with status column (in place / in progress / gap). Include suggested evidence for each item.
