ORCHA's AI Risk Profiler tells you which AI risks a health technology has, how serious they are given the clinical context, and exactly where the gaps are. Because in health, "we didn't know" isn't good enough.
.
.
Each AI feature is assessed separately. By the end, you know which risks are active, how severe they are, what's mitigating them, and where the gaps are.
The risk profile is anchored in what's actually at stake — who receives the AI output and what happens if it's wrong. A wellness chatbot and a clinical decision tool get very different profiles. That distinction matters, and it's built in from the start.
A product with multiple AI features gets each one assessed separately. You don't get a single blended risk score that obscures where the real problems are - you get a clear picture of each feature individually.
How the AI works determines which risks it carries. Suppliers declare this through a structured questionnaire. If the declaration is incomplete or withheld, that's flagged — because opacity in documentation is a risk in itself.
You find out which of 10 defined AI risks are active in this product — and how serious each one is given the clinical stakes. Where two factors both trigger the same risk, you're told it's amplified. No guessing about what matters most.
You see what's actually reducing the risk — in the product architecture, and in the governance programme. Assessed separately, so you can tell whether a product is genuinely safe or just well-documented.
You leave knowing exactly where the unmitigated risks are and what they mean clinically. Not a pass or fail — a clear evidence base for making the decision in front of you, whether that's procurement, deployment, or regulatory submission.
The AI Risk Profiler framework has been validated against 20+ AI feature assessments across real health products. Every risk category and mitigation type reflects what's actually in the market - which means when it finds a gap in your product, that finding is grounded in evidence, not theory.

Regulators, health procurement teams, and clinical safety officers around the world are all asking for structured AI risk evidence in digital health technologies. Without a standard way to produce it, suppliers are guessing, health systems are accepting risk they can't see, and regulators have no consistent basis to work from.
A governance framework that treats a wellbeing chatbot the same as an AI influencing clinical decisions gives everyone a false sense of security. The AI Risk Profiler is built around clinical stakes from the start - so the risk profile reflects what actually matters for the patient and clinician involved.
When buyers and suppliers don't share a language for AI risk, procurement conversations go in circles. Suppliers produce documentation that doesn't answer the questions being asked. Health systems make deployment decisions on inadequate evidence. The AI Risk Profiler ends that stalemate.
If AI risk assessment produces different conclusions depending on who does it, it's not assessment - it's opinion. The AI Risk Profiler uses the same methodology, taxonomy, and risk activation logic on every product. Suppliers get predictable, actionable findings. Health systems get results they can actually compare.
