Goal: Keep an active log of risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies — and get AI help thinking through each one.
Who this is for: Project managers who've ever lost a project to a risk no one wrote down, or who want sharper mitigation plans without two-hour brainstorming sessions.
RAID, defined
- Risk — something that might go wrong (uncertain, future).
- Assumption — something you're betting is true but haven't proven (e.g., "vendor will deliver on time").
- Issue — something that has gone wrong and needs fixing now.
- Dependency — something this project needs from elsewhere (another team, another project, an external party).
A well-maintained RAID log is the difference between "we're tracking it" and "we got blindsided."
Steps to log a RAID item
- Open your project → click the RAID tab.
- Click + New Item in the top-right of the relevant section (Risks / Assumptions / Issues / Dependencies).
- Fill in:
- Title — one-line summary
- Description — context
- Owner — who's responsible
- For risks: Likelihood and Impact (low/med/high)
- Mitigation / Response — what you'll do about it
- Save. The item appears in the log with status (open / mitigating / closed).
Using the AI RAID Coach
- In the RAID log, click any item to expand it.
- You'll see an AI Coach button (zap icon).
- Click it. Vyndra reads the item plus your project context, then suggests:
- Additional risks you may not have considered
- Refined mitigation strategies
- Likely root causes (for issues)
- Cross-impact warnings (this risk affects another open item)
- Apply, modify, or dismiss each suggestion.
