AI Ethical Expertise
Professional ethical review of AI-related documents, policies, and projects — by human experts, supported by AI.
What is AI Ethical Expertise?
Many organisations worry about whether their AI-related policies, products, and practices are ethically sound. Our AI Ethical Expertise service provides a rigorous, independent review conducted by a global network of specialists in ethics, law, technology, and human rights.
The AI assists with intake, complexity assessment, and preliminary analysis. The final expert review is always conducted by real human professionals — our collaborators from research institutions, law firms, NGOs, and policy bodies worldwide.
Our reviews are informed by leading international frameworks — including the EU AI Act and Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy AI, the OECD AI Principles, and UNESCO’s Recommendation on the Ethics of AI — alongside our own internal standards. See our Knowledge Base for the full list of sources.
Not sure what to submit? Read our Ethical Review Guide — what we assess, examples of documents businesses and government bodies typically submit, and how EU regulations factor in.
⏱️ Please note: Review time begins from the date we receive your payment and send a confirmation receipt.

Reviews are led by researchers, not a training-course certificate. Assessments are conducted directly by HCI's founders — Dr. Oleg S. (PhD, Development Administration) and Dr. H. Miri (PhD, Computer Science) — or by qualified team members with similar credentials, not by staff certified through a multi-day exam. Our methodology also draws on public administration theory alongside standard AI ethics frameworks, giving reviews a dimension most certification-based approaches don't reach.
