Fronterio vs Spreadsheets for AI Governance

Many organisations start tracking their AI tools in spreadsheets. While this works for a handful of tools, it breaks down quickly as AI use scales. Here is how Fronterio — the AI Transformation Platform, with governance built in — compares to spreadsheet-based tracking.

The Spreadsheet Approach

Spreadsheet-based AI governance typically involves a shared Excel file or Google Sheet listing AI tools, their owners, risk levels, and approval status. Teams manually update this file when new tools are adopted or existing ones change. While this is better than nothing, it introduces significant limitations: there is no audit trail (who changed what and when), no automated risk classification, no connection to actual usage data, no compliance workflows, and no way to generate reports for regulators. As the number of AI tools grows beyond 10-15, the spreadsheet becomes a liability rather than an asset.

What a Platform Provides

Fronterio automates what spreadsheets cannot. Every AI agent is registered with structured metadata (purpose, autonomy level, data access, risk classification). Changes are tracked in an immutable audit log that regulators can review. Risk classification follows EU AI Act categories automatically based on structured questionnaire responses. Approval workflows route new agents to the right stakeholders. Real-time dashboards show compliance posture across the organisation. Integration with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Anthropic Claude pulls actual usage data, no manual updates needed.

When to Switch

Hvis jeres organisation bruger mere end 5 AI-værktøjer, opererer i EU (hvor EU AI Act gælder), skal demonstrere governance over for revisorer eller myndigheder eller vil måle AI-adoption og ROI, er et regneark ikke længere nok. Den reelle omkostning er kaosset, ikke en hypotetisk bøde: forældede rækker ingen stoler på, dokumentation I ikke kan fremvise, når en revisor eller enterprise-kunde spørger, og medarbejdertid brændt af på manuel vedligeholdelse. En platform er en brøkdel af det — og den fører et register, I faktisk kan aflevere.

Ud over inventaret: ét rangeret svar

Et regneark viser, hvad I har. Fronterio fortæller, hvad I skal gøre nu. Over inventaret sidder Muligheder: hver anbefaling rangeret med sin værdicase, sin konfidens og hvorfor nu, fodret af strategilærredet, 12-måneders-roadmappet, asynkrone workshops, OKR'er og Executive Board Pack i stedet for at konkurrere med dem. Intet af det er muligt i et regneark. Data er statiske, beslutningen dør i filen, og bestyrelsen ser aldrig forbindelsen mellem inventar og effekt.

No Spreadsheet Drills a Failover

A spreadsheet cannot tell you whether your fallback AI vendor is actually reachable right now. Fronterio's AI Vendor Resilience (Enterprise) does: a one-click drill validates that the Mistral or Aleph Alpha credentials are live, that the fallback's capabilities cover your primary, that the compliance posture is equivalent or better, and that your guardrails transfer. The result lands in an append-only drill log your auditor can inspect. The spreadsheet row that says 'Mistral: approved fallback' is a promise. A drilled resilience plan is evidence.
