# AI for reports, with each captured request on the record.

Discovery and records requests can reach what officers send to AI. Verillian applies your policy on each device and keeps the record on your agency's own servers.

## At one policing roundtable, many agencies had trained no staff on AI.

**44%**

of agencies at a National Policing Institute roundtable in San Francisco had done no AI training for any of their staff. One roundtable, not a national survey.

## A request outside your rules is denied, and recorded.

An AI assistant on a patrol laptop tried to send an email, and your policy denied it. The record shows the officer, the device and the rule that matched.

## When a report reaches court, the record is there.

An officer turns field notes into a report narrative, with the witness's name and phone number replaced. In discovery or a records request, you can show what the AI was given and what it returned.

A name and a phone number, as the AI provider received them.

Bring a request your staff would send, and we open its record together on a real device.

## What it looks like at a department

Three questions from a working week.

| The question | Who asks it | The answer |
| --- | --- | --- |
| The defense asks whether the AI record was changed. | The department's records supervisor, in court.“How do we show nobody touched it?” | Each entry is signed on the device and hash-chained to the one before it, and your own admin server flags any entry that does not link or verify when it arrives. |
| Crime numbers, analyzed without the web tool. | A crime analyst using Claude Code on burglary numbers.“It can crunch them. It shouldn't be sending them anywhere.” | Your policy allows the analysis and denies the web tool before it runs. The attempt is on the record with the analyst, the computer and the rule that matched. |
| The CJIS auditor asks about AI. | The agency's CJIS security officer.“Who used AI, from which computer, and what did it send?” | For each captured request, the record shows the person, the computer, the AI and model, what was sent and what your policy decided. It sits on servers your agency runs. |

## What to keep when officers use AI

### [Is an AI-generated police report discoverable?](https://verillian.ai/blog/is-an-ai-generated-police-report-discoverable/)

How discovery and retention rules treat the draft.

### [What has to be preserved when an officer uses AI to draft a report?](https://verillian.ai/blog/what-must-be-preserved-ai-police-report/)

The input, the first draft, and who used it.

### [What CJIS requires before staff use AI](https://verillian.ai/blog/cjis-and-ai/)

What auditors will ask to see.

What [CJIS Security Policy v6.1](https://verillian.ai/trust/compliance/cjis-security-policy-v6-1/) asks of the record when staff use AI.

- **For IT:** where each part runs, and what crosses each boundary. [Architecture and data flow](https://verillian.ai/resources/architecture-and-data-flow/)
- **For security:** where the data lives, and who holds the keys. [How Verillian is designed for trust](https://verillian.ai/resources/trust-and-security-overview/)
- **For counsel:** what the record holds when a request or a court asks. [Public safety overview](https://verillian.ai/resources/public-safety-overview/)
- **For procurement:** what there is to review, and how terms are agreed. [The procurement brief](https://verillian.ai/papers/For-Procurement.pdf)
