A structured interview with a business unit or functional lead — surfaces control gaps, segregation-of-duties issues, and undocumented exceptions before they show up as findings.
Walk me through a control or process in your area that relies on a manual override or exception step. How often is that override used, and who approves it?
Is there a task or system access in your area where one person can both initiate and approve the same transaction, without a second set of eyes?
What's one control that exists on paper but isn't consistently followed in practice? Why does the gap exist?
Describe how your team handles a case that falls outside the standard process. Is that exception path documented anywhere, or is it tribal knowledge?
Has a control gap or near-miss happened in the last 12 months that wasn't escalated through a formal incident process?
How confident are you that the controls in this area would hold up under a surprise external audit?
Is there anything about how this business unit operates that hasn't come up in a previous audit but you think matters?
After each completed session, Mayetik generates a structured AI summary. Here's an example of the output format — the actual content reflects each respondent's answers.
The respondent's answers highlighted three recurring themes — each supported by specific examples drawn from their experience. The summary captures what was said, not what was expected.
Two responses stood out as unusually detailed and pointed to an area worth following up on. The full text of each answer is preserved below the summary.
Based on the patterns in this session, the AI identified three concrete actions for the project team to consider. These are drawn directly from the respondent's own suggestions.
