RAID Log Generator

Describe your project or initiative and AI builds a structured RAID log — Risks with impact ratings, Assumptions to validate, open Issues with owners, and Dependencies with status tracking so nothing falls through the cracks.

Simple by design

How it works

01

Describe your project

Tell us about your project, its scope, timeline, and known concerns. No formatting needed — just describe the initiative and any risks or blockers you're aware of.

02

AI builds the RAID log

MyMap's AI generates a four-section RAID log with Risks (impact + mitigation), Assumptions, open Issues (owner + status), and Dependencies (ETA + status).

03

Refine and export

Edit any item, add new entries, update statuses, or ask AI to identify additional risks. Export as PNG or PDF to share with stakeholders or project sponsors.

About the framework

What is a RAID Log?

A RAID log is a project management tool that tracks four categories of project uncertainty: Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies. It serves as a living document that keeps stakeholders informed about what could go wrong, what needs to be true, what's already broken, and what the project depends on.

Each section serves a distinct purpose:

  • Risks — potential problems that haven't occurred yet, rated by impact and likelihood, with mitigation plans
  • Assumptions — beliefs taken as true that, if proven wrong, could derail the project
  • Issues — active problems that need resolution, with owners and target dates
  • Dependencies — external factors the project relies on, tracked by owner and status

RAID logs are essential for complex projects with multiple stakeholders, external dependencies, or regulatory requirements. Regular RAID reviews (weekly or bi-weekly) surface problems early when they're cheapest to fix and build a shared understanding of project health.

MyMap's AI generates a structured RAID log from a project description, so project managers can start tracking risks and dependencies immediately instead of building a template from scratch.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions

Is the RAID log maker free?

Yes — you can generate RAID logs for free without signing up. Free accounts get a generous number of AI messages per month. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited RAID logs.

Can I customize the RAID log after it's generated?

Absolutely. Every risk, assumption, issue, and dependency is fully editable. You can add new items, update statuses, change owners, or ask AI to suggest additional risks.

What does RAID stand for?

RAID stands for Risks, Assumptions, Issues, and Dependencies. It's a project management framework for tracking the four categories of uncertainty that can affect project delivery. Each category has its own tracking approach.

When should I use a RAID log vs a risk register?

A risk register focuses only on risks with probability and impact scores. A RAID log is broader — it also tracks assumptions that need validation, active issues requiring resolution, and external dependencies. Use RAID for a complete project health view.

Can I use it for agile projects?

Yes. While RAID logs originated in waterfall project management, they work well in agile contexts too. Many Scrum teams maintain a RAID log alongside their sprint board to track cross-sprint risks and dependencies.
