5 AI governance tools

Not legal or compliance advice
P

PentEdge (AIMS)

AI governance

AI monitoring and governance platform built for community banks, credit unions, RIAs and insurers — maintains an AI tool inventory and risk score per vendor.

Built for exam readinessVendor risk scoring
Compliance note

A platform rather than a single point tool — best fit for firms that want ongoing monitoring instead of a one-time review.

C

Comply — ComplyAI

AI governance

AI governance module from an established compliance software vendor, aimed at documenting AI use against existing supervisory obligations.

Built on existing compliance suite
Compliance note

Worth asking directly whether the underlying model logic is configurable by your firm or fixed by the vendor — this varies a lot across governance tools.

H

Holistic AI

AI governance

London-headquartered AI governance, risk and compliance platform, serving financial services, insurance and HR among other regulated sectors.

UK-headquarteredIndependent AI audits
Compliance note

One of the few AI governance vendors headquartered in the UK rather than the US — potentially useful if your firm prefers a vendor operating under the same regulatory environment. Enterprise sales model; expect a sales conversation rather than self-serve signup.

M

Monitaur

AI governance

AI governance platform covering the full model lifecycle — inventory, risk documentation, monitoring and audit — built with financial services as a core sector.

Model lifecycle governanceFS-focused
Compliance note

Positions itself around ongoing model governance rather than a one-time review, which suits firms with several AI systems already in production rather than a single tool being evaluated.

A

Armilla AI

AI governance

AI risk assessment and independent verification, notable for offering warranty-style coverage against AI system performance failures.

Independent AI verificationAI performance warranty
Compliance note

The warranty angle is genuinely unusual in this category — worth a look if your firm's concern is liability exposure from an AI system underperforming, not just documentation.

What to check before you choose

  • Framework coverage: which regimes the platform maps to, such as the EU AI Act or model risk guidance like PRA SS1/23 for in-scope UK banks, and how current that mapping is.
  • Inventory and classification: whether it records each AI system, its use case and its risk classification, with the reasoning behind it.
  • Evidence and audit trail: whether records can be exported for an examiner with dates and named owners.
  • Monitoring and oversight: how it tracks errors and drift, and how human review is recorded.
  • Integration: whether it connects to your existing model inventory, GRC or ticketing tools.
  • It is a vendor too: run the same due diligence on the governance tool itself.

Each badge reflects what a vendor states in its own documentation, not an independent audit by Attestly. Where a vendor offers a referral or affiliate program, we may earn a commission if you sign up through a link on this site. That does not change how tools are described. See how ratings work.
