Know your approved list — before you need it

Most orgs have an approved-AI-tools list (or an implicit one); knowing it before the deadline crunch prevents policy accidents.

Find your org's approved AI tool list (intranet, IT docs, or ask). Write 3 lines: approved tools, banned tools, unclear cases. You're done when the lines exist — or your one-sentence ask to IT is drafted.

Worked example

The worst time to learn your company's AI policy is mid-deadline with a paste half-done. Five minutes now: what's approved, what's banned, what's unclear. If the list doesn't exist, your question to IT starts the process — that's a contribution, not a confession.
