About SSAI

We make AI trust measurable for small businesses.

Simple Serve AI created the SSAI Trust Score to give smaller firms a practical way to understand, improve, and communicate how they manage AI risk.

Why it exists

AI adoption moves quickly. Governance usually does not. SSAI turns the gap into a structured 300–850 rating, a remediation roadmap, and an annual reassessment cycle.

What we believe

Fix the system, not the people. Clear rules, human oversight, secure data handling, incident response, vendor review, and training make responsible AI easier to operate.

Ratings first: The Trust Score is calculated from a fixed rubric. Purchasing improvement services from SSAI does not automatically increase a score; score changes require changes in assessed controls and evidence.
