Demo: Sample AI Policy Checker

Open in new tab
This demo uses a sample acceptable use policy (not your company’s policy) and no real data. It’s for illustration only.

How to use

1

Ask a question

Ask a plain-English question (e.g., “Can I paste customer data?”, “Can I publish AI-generated content?”).
2

Get your answer

You’ll get Yes / No / It depends / I don’t know based on the sample policy, with a reason and reference.

Good test prompts

“Can I upload a CSV with employee details to summarise it?”
“Am I allowed to post AI-generated code to GitHub?”
“Can contractors use ChatGPT with our internal documents?”
“Do I need approval before publishing AI-generated marketing content?”
When you build your own GPT, replace the sample policy with your organisation’s policy PDF and follow the steps in this guide.

Create Your GPT

1

Check you've got access

You need ChatGPT Plus, Business, Enterprise, Edu (free accounts can’t create GPTs).
2

Open the GPT Builder

Go to chatgpt.com/gpts/editor (direct) or open chatgpt.com/gpts → + Create (top right).
3

Select 'Configure' tab

Here you paste instructions, upload files, set name/description, starters, and capabilities.
4

Set name & description

Name: AI Policy CheckerDescription (paste):
5

Paste the GPT instructions

In Configure → Instructions, paste this block:
6

Upload your policy

In Configure → Knowledge, upload your AI Acceptable Use Policy PDF as the only knowledge file. (Knowledge lets a GPT reference attached files.)
7

Set capabilities

In Configure → Capabilities, leave everything off for this use case: Web Search, Image Generation, Code Interpreter & Data Analysis, Canvas → Off. (You only need the uploaded Policy; turning extras off reduces risk.)
8

Add conversation starters

In Configure → Conversation starters, add a few (here are some options but you can use some more relevant to your organisation if required):

"Can I paste customer data to summarise it?"

"Am I allowed to publish AI-generated content externally?"

"Can contractors use ChatGPT with our data?"

"Do I need approval before posting AI-generated code on GitHub?"

"Can I upload a CSV with employee details?"

9

(Optional) Icon

In Configure → Image, upload an icon or let the Builder generate one.
10

Publish & share

Click Publish. Choose who can access it (Only you, Link, Workspace).
You can also Copy link, Duplicate, view Version history, or Delete from the top-right menu. Workspace owners can manage org-wide GPT settings under Manage workspace → GPTs.
11

Quick test (2 minutes)

Ask the GPT:
  • “Can I brainstorm meeting agendas using public info only?”
  • “Can I paste API keys?”
  • “Can I summarise customer emails?”
Confirm the responses are in line with your company’s policy.
12

Maintain

When the policy changes, replace the Knowledge file, re-publish, and re-run a test.Use Version history / Duplicate when iterating.
