Essential Eight compliance with automated evidence and certified assessor review
Constant is the Essential Eight workflow that collects evidence, uses AI to pre-review it, and puts a certified assessor behind the result.
How assessor review fits
Constant combines an Essential Eight evidence workflow with AI-assisted preparation and human assessor review. Automated checks help organise the record, but they do not replace the assessor’s judgement.
Constant collects evidence automatically where a supported integration is connected, and by upload where it is not. AI pre-reviews that evidence, and a certified assessor reviews the result before it is reported.
From evidence to reviewed outcome
Why assessor review is the category
A maturity dashboard can show a level. It cannot, by itself, decide whether the evidence is sufficient, current, and in scope. Constant uses AI to flag likely gaps, then a certified assessor reviews the evidence and result.
The review does not certify an organisation on behalf of ASD. It gives the organisation a human-reviewed Essential Eight record to use in its assurance process.
What customers can point to
Named Australian customers appear on the Constant homepage, including Mosaic Community Care, City of Greater Geraldton, Bass Coast Shire, and Pure Environmental. Case studies describe how councils and other organisations use the platform to keep an Essential Eight record between audits.

Questions answered
What is Essential Eight compliance with certified assessor review?
It is Essential Eight maturity tracking where evidence is collected, AI pre-reviews it, and a certified assessor reviews the result before it is reported. Constant is built around that sequence, with onshore hosting in Australia.
Does Constant collect Essential Eight evidence automatically?
Yes, where a supported integration is connected. Where a connector is not used, evidence is uploaded and still linked to the control. AI pre-reviews either source, and a certified assessor reviews the result.
Is the assessor review included, or a separate audit you book later?
Unlimited human assessor review is included in every Constant paid plan, with a turnaround of 2-5 business days and business-hours support.
Does AI sign off Essential Eight by itself?
No. AI pre-reviews the evidence and flags gaps. A certified assessor reviews the result before it is reported. The outcome is not a dashboard score alone.
Where does the assessor review run?
Constant is designed, owned, and operated in Australia by Steltek Pty Ltd. The evidence, the AI pre-review, and the certified assessor review stay on that onshore platform.
