Responsible Product Risk Worksheet

Use alongside any stage when responsible product risk needs explicit review.

A successful outcome should not hide an unacceptable side effect — especially where AI is involved.

Questions to Answer

  1. Could the product harm a user, and what happens when it fails?

  2. What privacy, security, or regulatory risks exist?

  3. Could the model or its data introduce bias or unfair outcomes?

  4. Is human review required, and can a user detect an error?

  5. Are decisions explainable enough for the context, and can users opt out?

  6. Are vulnerable populations affected, and what are the escalation paths?
