Kettera AI Architecture Practice

About

A practice, not a publication.

Kettera exists to answer one question well: what is the current and future state of AI in an organisation, and how do you move between them defensibly? Enterprise-architecture method supplies the discipline; AI is the whole subject; the Australian regulatory context is the frame.

What this is

  • A vertical ring-fenced around AI. Every page is parsed through the AI lens — if a page could sit unchanged on a generic EA site, it does not belong here.
  • Australian-context-first, treating NIST, ISO and the EU AI Act as inputs mapped back to the AU canon — not the other way around.
  • Credibility-first. Depth and a sharp point of view over traffic. Genuine capability — assessments and classifiers — that give a reason to return.

What this is not

  • Not generic EA content with AI bolted on.
  • Not an SEO or affiliate content play.
  • Not a GRC SaaS platform — we borrow the structure of good governance tooling; we do not rebuild it.
  • Not a general AI-news site.

How it is built

Kettera models the practice it preaches. The assessment scoring is deterministic and published — a CISO will not trust a black-box LLM grading their estate, so AI is used only at the edges to explain and to draft. Benchmarking uses coarse segments only; no organisation name or free text ever enters a shared scope. Compliance-by-construction is itself the credibility asset.

Who

Kettera is the work of Brendan Faulds — enterprise architecture, AI, and an Australian-context lens.
