Quantik GPT Introduces a Responsible Use of AI Agent Aligned with RICS Standards
Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming part of everyday professional practice across the construction and property sectors. As adoption increases, organisations face an important challenge: how to ensure AI is used responsibly, consistently, and in line with professional standards.
To support this objective, Quantik has enhanced its Quantik GPT platform with a dedicated Responsible Use of AI Agent, developed in alignment with the principles set out within the RICS Responsible Use of AI Professional Standard.
Moving Beyond Traditional Policy Checks
The original governance framework within Quantik GPT relied primarily on keyword-based policy checks. While effective as an initial safeguard, this approach has now evolved into a more advanced, agent-driven model.
The new Responsible Use of AI Agent is designed to understand the context of a user's request rather than simply identifying predefined keywords. When a request is submitted, the agent:
- Interprets the user's intent
- Classifies the nature of the request
- Assesses the associated risk level
- Applies governance controls relative to the potential impact of the task
This assessment is then integrated directly into the workflow, enabling Quantik GPT to respond appropriately based on the level of risk identified.
Embedding Governance into Everyday Workflows
A common challenge with AI governance is the reliance on individuals being fully aware of, and consistently applying, organisational policies.
At Quantik, we believe technology can play a more active role.
Rather than expecting users to navigate governance requirements independently, the Responsible Use of AI Agent embeds governance directly into the workflow itself. By identifying risk and providing context-sensitive guidance, the system helps users understand when additional care, review, or controls may be required.
This approach supports informed decision-making while maintaining professional standards and reducing the risk of inappropriate AI use.
Supporting Responsible AI Adoption Across the Profession
The introduction of the Responsible Use of AI Agent represents another important milestone in the ongoing development of Quantik GPT.
AI technologies are becoming increasingly prevalent across the surveying, commercial management, and construction claims professions. As these tools continue to evolve, organisations have a responsibility to ensure their use remains transparent, proportionate, and professionally accountable.
By embedding governance within the technology itself, Quantik is taking a practical step towards enabling safe, responsible, and effective AI adoption across its business.
Looking Ahead
The development of the Responsible Use of AI Agent reflects Quantik's broader commitment to innovation, professional standards, and responsible technology adoption.
As AI capabilities continue to expand, we will continue investing in systems and processes that help our team harness the benefits of AI while maintaining the quality, integrity, and professional judgement that clients expect.
Responsible AI is not simply about compliance. It is about creating practical frameworks that allow professionals to use emerging technologies with confidence, understanding, and appropriate oversight.
At Quantik, that principle is now built directly into the way our AI operates.
