Audits & Governance

An innovative platform for audits, governance, and compliance assessments

Brilliant Assessments helps teams run evidence-based audits and governance assessments using their own framework, with AI-assisted review, role-based reporting, and repeatable reporting over time.

Review evidence faster with AI-assisted interpretation

Let respondents upload policies, procedures, risk registers, audit findings, approvals, screenshots, and other supporting files as part of the assessment. Use your own criteria to guide AI review, then let assessors edit, approve, or override draft interpretations before anything is shared.

  • Use uploaded documents and written responses in scoring
  • Draft summaries of the evidence provided
  • Flag gaps or areas for attention
  • Keep assessors in control of final outputs
  • Combine evidence findings with other scores and answers

Turn your methodology into a scalable consulting offer

Brilliant Assessments helps consultancies package their audit, governance, and compliance methodology into a repeatable service. Deliver self-assessments, expert-reviewed assessments, or multi-stage audit programmes with built-in pricing, reporting, and follow-on opportunities.

  • Charge for access before an assessment begins
  • Include a report, or offer premium report tiers
  • Sell assessment bundles for clients, partners, or programmes
  • Set different pricing levels for different offers
  • Support multiple currencies through Stripe

We needed an assessment tool to help us perform HIPAA and high-tech assessments here in the United States, and also assist with GDPR assessments and other assessment needs worldwide. Brilliant Assessments has helped us actually add another business line, enabling our customers to perform their own assessments, creating additional revenue streams.”

Rob Van Buskirk, Co-founder at VanRein Compliance

“The iteration process in Brilliant Assessments allows us to be able to keep track of how an individual laboratory is going through our program and also gives us a lot of functionality to make sure that we're reminding people when it's time for them to take their certification or when it's time for them to actually come back and re-certify their lab after a couple of years.”

Rachael Relph, Chief Sustainability Officer at My Green Lab

Reassess and track improvement between assessments

Brilliant Assessments comes with the tools you need for longitudinal reporting. Run repeat assessments as ‘iterations’ and compare what has changed over time in your reports. There is no limit to the number of iterations you can include in a report or results page.

One assessment to power many outcomes

Start with a single self-assessment, roll findings up across teams or sites, or create annual and industry-level reports across a wider client, member, or partner programme. Brilliant Assessments lets you use one framework across all reports.

  • Deliver feedback directly to an individual respondent, site, supplier, or member organisation.

  • Combine multiple responses into one consolidated view for a client team, business unit, or whole organisation.

  • Collate data across a larger cohort to create annual reports, benchmarked summaries, or a wider view of performance across a programme or sector.

“Once a venue has been assessed, the system generates a tailored report showing them where improvements could be made. We also use the platform to measure the impact Best Bar None has on various regions across the country, which in turn allows us to see trends and offer support where needed.”

Debbie Ogier, Administrator for Best Bar None by Six Till Six

Different feedback for different audiences

Different audiences need different kinds of feedback. A respondent may need clear, direct guidance, while an assessor may need a fuller view of the evidence, scoring, and areas that need review. Brilliant Assessments gives you precise control over what is shown to whom, so each role gets the right level of detail.

Create up to five feedback variants for each question, subsection, section, and segment of the assessment, along with unlimited score bands. That means you can tailor language, reporting, and recommendations for different audiences without changing the underlying framework.

Respondent experience
Deliver instant results pages and PDF reports on completion. Automatically generate certificates with respondent details when a scoring threshold is met.

Assessor experience
Provide assessor-only results pages and dashboards, supported by PDF or editable Word reports that can be reviewed, annotated, and adjusted before final sign-off.

FAQs for Audits and Governance Assessments

  • An evidence-based assessment goes beyond tick-box answers. It combines open-text responses and uploaded files such as documents, PDFs, and spreadsheets, then uses AI Interpretation alongside your framework and scoring model to turn that evidence into reviewable feedback, scores, and reports. 

  • Yes. For larger assessments, Brilliant Assessments offers a spreadsheet upload service, after which the assessment can still be edited in the Assessment Builder. For smaller assessments, it is usually quicker to build directly in the platform, and there is also an Assessment Building Service if you want the team to do the setup for you. 

  • Yes. Brilliant Assessments supports anonymous responses via shareable, anonymous cohort links, so people can complete an assessment without you collecting personal data. The trade-off is that fully anonymous setups limit certain automation, such as reminder emails, emailed copies of reports, and automatic detection of repeated individual iterations.

  • Yes. Brilliant Assessments supports cohort reporting, which lets you combine and analyze results from groups of respondents and show trends, averages, and comparisons across a team, department, business unit, or any other defined cohort. You can generate one-off grouped reports from existing responses or set up formal cohorts with invitations, reminders, completion dates, and scheduled reporting. 

  • Yes. Assessors can review AI-generated feedback before publishing, then approve it, edit it, rewrite it, regenerate it, or override it completely. That keeps human judgment in the loop before anything is shared.

  • There is no fixed limit. You can include as many iterations as you need on reports and results pages, although in practice, the useful limit is usually determined by how many comparisons you want a chart or report to show clearly.
