Generative AI is entering public safety faster than most agencies can write policy. And while the technology can reduce paperwork and speed up investigations, it also introduces real operational and legal exposure if not properly governed.

Police1’s “Agency Readiness Checklist: Generative AI in Law Enforcement” provides a command-level framework to evaluate your department’s readiness and protect your agency before AI-related decisions show up in court, discovery or the media.

Inside the guide, you’ll get:

  • A structured leadership and oversight model to help assign roles, evaluate tools and verify accountability
  • Plain-language explanations of key AI concepts leaders must understand before approving operational use
  • Policy guidance covering disclosure, validation, data handling and audit requirements tied to chain of custody
  • Training and communication steps that support responsible use across the agency

If your agency is evaluating, piloting or using generative AI already, this checklist reveals the policy, training and oversight gaps that need attention now — before they become liability.
