Products & Services
Enterprise AI-governance SaaS and deployable private-cloud/VPC/on-premises platform with a shared governance graph. It covers AI discovery and inventory, lifecycle governance, monetary risk quantification, compliance/control mapping, evidence management, continuous monitoring and audit readiness.
Built-in AI assistant and recurring agents that discover AI systems, read connected sources, assess controls, process evidence, quantify risk, run agent/metric tests and link results back to the records and controls they support.
Free, certifiable AI-literacy courses for general staff, GRC and security teams, including Foundations and Practitioner tracks.
Developer integration for sending runtime metrics and test evidence from CI and production pipelines into platform controls.
Market Position
Modulos positions itself as a risk-centric, AI-native governance platform rather than a generic GRC or data-governance product. Its differentiators are monetary risk quantification, a shared Governance Graph, source-linked agent automation, and deep EU AI Act/ISO 42001 orientation; relevant AI-governance competitors include Credo AI, OneTrust, IBM watsonx.governance/OpenPages and Microsoft Purview.
