RISK & COMPLIANCE

Governance, risk, and compliance — provable.

Governance, risk, and compliance on the governed platform, end to end: AI governance, data privacy, and third-party risk, each carried through to provable, audit-ready evidence. They run on one shared inventory, so exposure that spans AI, privacy, and vendors rolls up into a single risk view.

Assessments, high-risk systems, and governance status on one live dashboard — the whole AI risk posture at a glance.

WHAT IT DOES

Take every AI system, vendor, and data flow from registration to audit-ready evidence — on a record that verifies itself.

A central registry tells you which AI systems you run, how risky each is, and whether each is compliant — with deployment status, versioned model history, and a live risk score. Change control always shows which version is running, who approved it, and how to reverse a bad change.
Machine-executable policy rules enforce as AI runs, catching risky actions in the moment — and you can dry-run a new rule against sample inputs to see exactly what it would block or allow before it goes live.
Screen every system against the practices the law outright bans, then walk any high-risk system through its complete, defensible EU AI Act conformity package — declaration, documentation, and a valid assessment authority for every one.
Measure whether a system treats different groups fairly with the standard metrics regulators expect, then stress-test it against noisy and adversarial inputs to confirm it holds up before you rely on it.
One processing-activity record covers GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, LGPD, PIPL, and more, with cross-border transfer tracking — and a data-subject request engine answers every access, deletion, portability, and opt-out request on time and on record, with the statutory clock built in.
Full vendor lifecycle — criticality tiering, inherent and residual scoring, certification tracking, and continuous external security ratings — so third-party exposure is managed end to end.
Every piece of audit evidence is verifiably authentic and revision-tracked, and every compliance gap and its fix lives in one register with the evidence attached — audit-ready at any time.
A live, board-ready picture of exactly how compliant you are across frameworks and whether you’re improving — with every identified risk rolled up onto an impact-by-likelihood heat map for leadership.

KNOW WHAT YOU RUN

Every AI system you run, in one inventory

AI does the routine work under the limits you set — but you cannot govern what you cannot see, so this registry inventories every AI system in use and scores how risky each one is against the frameworks regulators use.

Each system carries its usage context, its risk classification, and its assessment status, so you can answer “which AI do we run, and how risky is each” before anyone asks.

THE LIMITS YOU SET

Machine-readable policy that enforces as the AI runs

The limits you set are written as machine-executable policy that enforces in the moment an agent acts — screening for prohibited uses, redacting personal data, gating risky deployments — and one rule, “require human review for high-risk decisions,” is what makes anything consequential stop for a person.

Dry-run a new rule against sample inputs to see exactly what it would block or allow before it goes live, so a control never surprises you in production.

STOPS FOR A PERSON

Where consequential AI actions wait for a human

When an action is high-risk, low-confidence, or simply novel, the agent does not just proceed — it stops and routes to this queue, where a named reviewer approves, modifies, or rejects it before anything happens, each request on its own clock.

Every escalation shows the agent’s recommendation and the reason it paused, so the human decides with full context — and the resolution is written back against the request.

EVERY AGENT GOVERNED

Every AI agent bound to a risk level and real limits

Each agent doing the routine work runs under governance, not on its own recognizance — tied to a risk level, a state you control, and the policies that apply to it, so autonomy always maps to limits your team already understands.

Pause a high-risk agent, keep watch on a critical one, or register a new one with its guardrails attached from the very first run.

THIRD-PARTY RISK

Your vendors and their AI, watched continuously

Governance does not stop at your own AI — the same record-keeping discipline carries to third parties, tiering each vendor by criticality, scoring inherent and residual risk, and surfacing the findings that need attention before a supplier becomes your exposure.

Criticality tiers, inherent-versus-residual scoring, and open findings roll up to one view, so third-party exposure is managed end to end instead of once a year.

A PROVABLE RECORD

Every decision sealed into a tamper-evident record

Every governance action above — each policy block, each oversight decision, each approval — is immutably recorded, and governance events are sealed into a SHA-256 hash chain where altering a single entry breaks it and is immediately detectable.

Filter by entity, action, user, or date and export the exact slice an auditor asks for — the complete, verifiable history of who did what, when, and from where.

SAME GOVERNANCE, EVERY APP

Every governance decision is written to a tamper-evident record: alter one entry and the chain breaks.

For risk, compliance, privacy, and audit teams. It runs on the same governed platform as everything else — one permission model, one verifiable record, and the same agents acting under the limits you set. Part of one governed platform: start with Risk & Compliance and add the rest when you’re ready, with nothing to re-integrate or re-secure.
