Build trust in your AI

AI Management SYstem (ISO 42001) Consulting, AUdits and Improvements.

From first principles to final audit, we help you stand-up—or tune-up your Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS) that’s compliant, effective, effecient, and future-proof.

Artificial intelligence is transforming business, but it also raises unique governance, ethics and risk questions.

ISO/IEC 42001 is the world’s first certifiable standard that answers those questions by setting a comprehensive, lifecycle-wide management framework for AI.


As certified ISO 42001 Lead Auditors, we help your organisations with practical and effective steps—so your organisation can innovate with confidence.
