Example certificate
Illustrative – not a client engagement. The firm, the system and every detail below are invented, to show what a Fijishi Kill-Switch Certificate contains.
FIJISHI KILL-SWITCH CERTIFICATE (EXAMPLE)
Certificate number: EXAMPLE-0000
Client: Example Mutual Insurance (a fictional insurer)
AI system: motor claims triage model, version 3.2 (fictional)
Decision examined: whether a motor claim is routed to fast-track payment or to manual review
Requirement named at intake: the insurer's obligation that a person can stop, review and reverse an automated claim decision (in a real certificate, the rule is named with its source and date)
Evidence examined: system documentation; the decision log for one month; override records; the vendor contract; the claims committee's terms of reference
Finding: meets the requirement.
What met the requirement
– A named role (the duty claims manager) can stop automated routing for any claim, and did so in a test on the date of examination; routing stopped within two minutes.
– The decision log keeps the inputs, the model's output and any override, with the person and the reason. One decision was reconstructed in full from the log.
– During the vendor's model updates, every claim goes to manual review; the update log for the month confirms it.
What did not
– Nothing, for this requirement.
Noted, without changing the finding
– The vendor contract lets the vendor decide when model updates run. A material change to the system or the contract ends this certificate's validity.
Validity
A certificate is dated and valid for one year, or until the system or the requirement changes materially, whichever comes first. Renewal is a new engagement with its own fixed fee.
Independence
The fee was fixed at intake and did not depend on this finding. Fijishi did not design, build, sell or implement this system.
Limits
This certificate states what one named system showed against one requirement on the date of issue. It is not legal advice and does not guarantee how a regulator, a court or an insurer will decide.
