CIAD is an independent registered institute. We teach Czech companies to work with artificial intelligence on their real work with documents, spreadsheets and repeated tasks, help them adopt a first concrete use case and independently verify AI systems before they receive sensitive data. Alongside that we measure how the Czech web and companies work with AI, and we publish the results. We are not tied to any AI vendor and we sell nothing off the shelf.
What does it mean that CIAD is on the consumer side?
+
The purpose of the institute, as entered in the register, includes protecting and educating consumers of services that use AI and alerting the public to entities that use AI unethically. In practice this means we measure and publish how AI is actually used in Czechia, and we advise companies so that their use holds up before customers too. No vendor pays us, so we have no reason to embellish anything.
What is the EU AI Act and who does the AI literacy obligation apply to?
+
Article 4 of the AI Act, as amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, applies to providers and deployers of AI systems. It requires them to take measures supporting AI literacy according to role, knowledge, experience and how AI is actually used. It is an obligation of effort, not of result: a company does not have to guarantee the level of any individual. The regulation does not prescribe one course or certification.
How does company AI training work and what does the organisation document?
+
First we identify roles, real tasks and the target outcome. Then people spend one day working with AI on tasks from their field, in person or remotely, and at the end we choose with management a first use case to develop. The syllabus, attendance records and role-based rules help you document the measures taken under Article 4. They are not a legal opinion or an automatic confirmation of compliance.
How does independent verification of an AI system work?
+
Together we define the system, data, permissions and abuse scenarios that make sense for your deployment. We test them in a targeted way and hand over findings with documented impact, severity and a remediation plan. After the fix we verify that it holds. The detailed procedure is described on the audit process page.
How is CIAD different from security and consulting firms?
+
We take no money from vendors whose tools we evaluate, and we sell no technology we would then recommend to ourselves. We are a registered institute whose purpose is to protect those who use AI. We back our conclusions with our own published studies with data and methodology, so anyone can verify them.
What does the first step of working together look like?
+
In a short message you describe the roles, tools used and the work you want to change. We come back with a proposed format: training, adoption of a concrete use case, or verification of a system. Pricing follows the concrete scope and we quote it on request.
