AI Product Owner Path
Register one deployed system as an auditable AI System: describe what it does, how it’s used, and what governance work is in scope.
Outcome
You leave this path with:
- a registered AI System that represents your deployed system
- a clear system description and lifecycle stage
- the right frameworks attached for governance work
- owners assigned so implementation can start immediately
Time to first value: 30–60 minutes
Prerequisites: you can create or edit an AI System, or you can work with an AI System Owner
Path at a glance
1
Create the AI System
Register the deployed system as the unit of governance
2
Describe the system
Capture purpose, users, and deployment context
3
Set the scope
Select frameworks and record key classifications
4
Enable execution
Assign owners and kick off Evidence collection
Step 1: Create the AI System
Goal: represent the AI system as the place where governance work happens.
Where in Modulos
AI Registry → New AI Systemto register an AI System
Do this
- Create the AI System with a specific name that matches how the system is discussed internally.
- Add a short description that explains what the system does and where it is used.
You’re done when
- the AI System exists and is recognizable to stakeholders
Step 2: Describe the AI system
Goal: make the system understandable without tribal knowledge.
Where in Modulos
AI System → Settings → General Settings
Do this
- Describe the purpose, intended users, and deployment context.
- Set the lifecycle stage to reflect reality.
- Add the AI System’s annual economic value if available (used across governance and risk workflows).
You’re done when
- a reviewer can read the AI System and understand what is being governed
Step 3: Set governance scope
Goal: ensure governance work is scoped to the right standards and regimes.
Where in Modulos
AI System → Settings → Frameworksto select or update frameworksAI System → Settings → EU AI Actto document scoping and classification when relevant
Do this
- Attach the frameworks that apply to this system’s context.
- Record key scoping and classification decisions for the EU AI Act when applicable.
You’re done when
- the AI System reflects what “in scope” means for governance work
Step 4: Enable execution
Goal: make the work actionable for the people implementing and reviewing it.
Where in Modulos
AI System → Settings → User Accessto assign AI System rolesAI System → RequirementsandAI System → Controlsto begin implementation
Do this
- Assign at least one Owner; add Editors for the working team and a Viewer for read-only oversight.
- Identify the first set of high-priority Requirements and Controls and ensure they have owners.
- Start Evidence collection early so you’re not retrofitting later.
You’re done when
- AI System roles are assigned
- governance work can proceed without you being the bottleneck
