Tech Debt Audit
What's accumulated in your AI systems that will cost you later.
What you get
"Debt you can see is debt you can manage."
- →
Technical debt inventory
A complete catalogue of shortcuts, workarounds, undocumented dependencies, and deferred decisions in your AI systems.
- →
Risk-ranked issue list
Each item scored by probability of failure, business impact if it fails, and cost to remediate now vs later.
- →
Remediation roadmap
A prioritised sequence for addressing debt items, with effort estimates and clear dependency ordering.
Who it's for
The long-term systems health owner.
Accountable for the long-term health of AI systems. Needs to know what's been deferred and what the accumulating cost will be.
Managing the teams that built and maintain the systems. Needs an independent inventory to prioritise backlog correctly.
Sponsoring ongoing AI investment. Needs to understand what portion of future budget will service existing debt rather than fund new capabilities.
What comes next
From inventory to remediation.
AI System Design
→After debt is cleared, redesign for the scale and governance requirements you now understand clearly.
Infra Review
→Technical debt and infrastructure capacity are often coupled. Review both before remediation planning.
Process Audit
→Surface debt in AI-integrated processes, not just in the systems themselves.
