2. Motivation

Enterprises increasingly consume AI through purchased products: SaaS copilots, PaaS model services, embedded AI features, and autonomous agents. This creates a governance gap:

  1. The enterprise is accountable for AI risk but does not control the vendor’s implementation.
  2. The vendor must prove trustworthy behavior without exposing proprietary internals.
  3. Enterprise procurement teams need reusable, machine-readable evidence — not custom questionnaires.
  4. Risks emerge over time (drift, escalation, repeated violations), not in single events.
