# How can a company in a regulated industry use AI safely?
Start with work where AI drafts, sorts or summarizes and a qualified person decides, keep sensitive data inside approved systems, record what the AI did and who approved it, and involve compliance and counsel before launch rather than after. This is general guidance, not legal advice.
## What this means in practice
- Begin with internal, low-risk tasks before anything customer-facing.
- Use business-grade tools with data retention and training controls set.
- Keep a record of inputs, outputs and approvals for review.
- Have compliance and counsel review the design against your specific obligations.
## How Lid Vizion approaches it
We start with the business decision and operating context, define ownership and measurable milestones, then use configuration, integrations, automation, or custom software only where each earns its place.
