Data Maturity Assessment
A free online self-assessment that gives a snapshot of an organisation's data and AI maturity. It scores 3 areas: purpose, practice (data quality, security, ethics and infrastructure) and people (leadership, talent and culture), plus a separate AI score. Results come in a shareable format for talks with colleagues and funders, with recommended guides and resources for next steps. It is aimed at social impact organisations, government agencies, funders and universities.

AI Opportunity & Risk Snapshot
A free self-assessment that takes about 3 minutes. A mission-driven organization answers 14 questions on leadership, skills, data, governance, tools and use cases, and gets 2 scores: how much AI is advancing its mission, and how well it is protected where informal AI use exposes it. The free result lists top strengths, missed opportunities and exposures; adding an email unlocks prioritized next steps, and a paid version gives a board-ready report. AlignIQ says answers are not stored.
