    Safe and Responsible AI

  • Who We ARE

    Turaco Strategy is a partnership of experts aligned around a single mission:

    Deliver actionable strategies and services that insure the safe, responsible, and ethical application of Artificial Intelligence for organizations of every size across all industries.

    We Get It.

    The world has become AI centric incredibly fast. It's nearly impossible to understand all the ways in which it's going to change your business - from operations and products to marketing and communication - but you know you will need to leverage AI to stay competitive. You may have started a couple of AI related projects, but now you're not sure how to deploy them safely and cost-effectively. Or your friend mentioned all the great stuff AI can do for your HR department or executive operations, and you're not sure what that would look like - or how to stay out of regulatory trouble. The problems might be bigger than the value of the solutions -- so what next?

    Why work with Turaco?

    Our primary focus is on Responsible and Ethical AI - making sure the use of AI and generative AI are safe, secure, and strategic. We provide risk management consulting and certification of AI models, utilizing a top down and bottom up approach to ensure products are fair and non-discriminative, accountable, safe, and preserve privacy. In addition, we ensure products stay compliant in the ever-emerging US and international regulatory landscape.

     

    We also offer go-to-market strategy, technical architecture and design, and startup mentoring. We can provide lean strategy services for your organization at any stage of operations - from ideation to growth and creating an innovation center of excellence for your enterprise.

     

    By request, we can provide due diligence expertise for investors, ensuring your investment in companies with AI products (or companies that are AI-enabled) is secure.

    TURA Framework

     

    Our TURA framework stands for "Transparent, Universal, Responsible, Accountable," encapsulating the four cornerstone principles essential to ethical AI development:

     

    Transparent: Advocating for openness in algorithms, data usage, and decision-making processes to ensure that AI operations can be understood and scrutinized by stakeholders.

     

    Universal: Ensuring inclusivity and fairness, so AI systems do not perpetuate bias and are designed to benefit a broad range of populations without discrimination.

     

    Responsible: Emphasizing the importance of creating AI that acts in the best interest of humans, with consideration for long-term impacts and ethical implications of AI technology.

     

    Accountable: Establishing clear guidelines for accountability, so there is a mechanism for redress if AI systems cause harm or operate outside of ethical boundaries.
