AI Monitoring
AI monitoring is the repeated collection and review of evidence about an AI system or AI-mediated output against defined performance, risk and change criteria.
What it means
A Monitoring record needs a stable protocol, system or platform context, inputs, versions, dates, outcomes, thresholds, incidents and owners. SEO-oriented monitoring may track sampled mentions or citations; legal post-market monitoring under the EU AI Act is a separate, role- and risk-specific duty for covered high-risk systems.
Why it matters
AI outputs and connected sources change over time, so a one-off audit cannot show drift or recurrence. Versioned observations help distinguish a persistent problem from normal variation and connect thresholds to an accountable response.
Example
A monthly protocol reruns 30 disclosed prompts across two locales, records claims and citations, and opens an incident only when a safety-related contradiction appears twice or has immediate material impact.
Common mistakes
Do not call ad hoc screenshots Monitoring, compare runs without preserving conditions or claim a marketing dashboard satisfies Article 72. Define the system boundary, role, risk and escalation path first.
How AYSA handles this
Signals reviewed
protocol version, input set, platform context, observed outcome, escalation threshold
Problem AYSA can identify
AYSA can flag authorised samples that cross a configured evidence or visibility threshold.
Recommendation prepared
The proposal assigns investigation, source correction or continued observation with a recorded rationale.
Approval preview
The user sees comparable runs, changed conditions, evidence and the proposed response owner.
Execution
AYSA can maintain supported monitoring records and apply approved website fixes; external-system actions require access and authority.
Verification
AYSA repeats the configured protocol and records whether the threshold, source state and incident status changed.
Limits
Monitoring coverage is sample-bound and does not by itself satisfy legal, safety or model-provider obligations.

Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
Is a collection of AI response screenshots a monitoring system?
Not by itself. Monitoring also needs a repeatable protocol, context, thresholds, ownership and response records.
Does AYSA monitoring satisfy EU AI Act post-market monitoring duties?
Not automatically. Article 72 concerns covered high-risk systems and depends on the provider role, system and required plan.
