The Challenge

AI is Scaling Faster Than You Can Govern It. Agents Just Made It Autonomous.

Enterprises are deploying agents, models, and applications at unprecedented speed – and agents now act autonomously, in milliseconds, thousands of times an hour. Governance is still manual, fragmented, and stuck in spreadsheets. You cannot govern a system that acts in milliseconds with a monthly audit.

60% of enterprise are scaling AI

Only 4% are governing it.

The Standard for Trusted AI

Defining AI Governance Since 2020. Now Defining Agent Governance.

Credo AI pioneered contextual, continuous, comprehensive AI governance and is now defining Agent Governance: registry for every agent, purpose-built agentic risk and controls, and governance. For agents, models, and applications with policy packs containing regulatory intelligence for every major AI standard, policy and regulation, integrated with the systems you already use.

One Platform to Govern Every AI Entity

Agents, applications, models, and vendors from pilot to production – with native integrations across your existing stack. And with GAIA (Govern AI Assistant), generally available in the platform today, weeks of governance work compress into hours.

AI Registry

Discover and catalog every AI system, agent, vendor and model. Full visibility into shadow AI.

Risk Intelligence

Continuous, contextual risk assessment, including a purpose-built agentic risk and control library for tool misuse, scope drift, and inter-agent risk.

Policy Engine

Turn policy into code: pre-built policy packs with regulatory intelligence, automated workflows, and audit-ready evidence – for AI and for agents.

Why Credo AI

Purpose-Built for AI Governance

We didn't bolt AI features onto a GRC tool. We built the platform for Measurable Trust from scratch – and it shows.

Continuous governance loop — AI systems are assessed, governed, and monitored in an infinite cycle.

The Only Pure-Play Platform Governing Every Layer, Including Agents

Model-level, application-level, and agent-level governance in one platform – with agents as first-class governed entities: registered, risk-assessed, sanctioned, and governed.

Continuous, Not Point-in-Time

Governance across the entire lifecycle – design, development, and production – with evidence flowing back through your monitoring and security stack. You cannot govern millisecond decisions with a monthly audit. We don't.

Contextual: A Governance Knowledge Graph That Knows Your Business

World governance intelligence – regulations, third-party risk, model trust scores – built and updated by agents, validated by human experts, and fused with your business context from 300+ integrations and forward-deployed governance experts.

Six Years of Regulatory Authority, Out of the Box

Ready-to-deploy policy packs for EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and beyond — written by the team in the room where AI governance standards are made: ISO, NIST, the EU Parliament, NATO, OECD.

Recognized for Our Pioneering Work in AI Governance

One platform to govern every AI system — from pilot to production — with native integrations across your existing stack.
