AI Government Benefits Decision
Automated benefits assessment systems — used for Universal Credit, disability assessments, and tax credit calculations — have generated mass errors that force vulnerable claimants into hardship. GeraWitness provides an oversight layer for public-sector AI decision tools, capturing the data inputs and model outputs for every benefits decision, flagging statistical outliers for human case worker review, and generating transparent decision records that claimants can challenge under administrative law.
What GeraWitness does here
- Satisfies EU AI Act requirements for public authority AI systems
- Reduces wrongful benefit denial errors
- Provides claimants with challengeable decision records
- Documents human accountability chain for Ministerial accountability
