1. Technology overview
Holistic AI is an enterprise AI governance company that began at University College London, founded by co-CEOs Dr Adriano Koshiyama and Dr Emre Kazim. It has offices in San Francisco and London and helps large organizations find, assess and control every AI model, agent and application they use.
The platform has three modules. Identify discovers AI across cloud, code and SaaS and keeps a live inventory with owners, risk levels and dependencies. Protect runs red teaming for prompt injection and jailbreaks, more than 40 tests for bias, hallucination, privacy and robustness, and drift monitoring in production. Enforce maps controls to the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001, adds approvals and deployment gates and collects audit evidence. Guardian Agents add Sentinel Agents that watch agent actions and Operative Agents that block or redirect non-compliant ones. Logos on the site include Unilever, Siemens, GSK and Starling Bank.
2. Highlighted features & specifications
- AI discovery: finds models, agents and applications across cloud, code and SaaS.
- AI inventory: tracks owners, risk levels and dependencies continuously.
- Red teaming and testing: prompt injection, jailbreak and 40+ bias, hallucination, privacy and robustness tests.
- Production monitoring: detects drift in deployed AI systems.
- Policy enforcement: control mapping, approvals, deployment gates and audit evidence.
- Guardian Agents: Sentinel and Operative agents supervise and correct agent actions.
3. Potential application
Large Vietnamese banks and conglomerates can build an AI inventory and approval workflow before scaling GenAI across units. Exporters serving EU customers can collect evidence of AI Act alignment. Companies piloting AI agents can apply runtime guardrails that stop non-compliant actions.
4. Benefits
Companies get one inventory of all AI in use, including shadow AI found automatically across cloud, code and SaaS. Built-in tests and red teaming reveal bias, hallucination and security issues before release. Controls mapped to the EU AI Act, NIST and ISO/IEC 42001 reduce the manual work of compliance evidence. Guardian Agents keep autonomous agents within policy at runtime.
5. Market trends & opportunities
Gartner has started rating AI governance platforms as a distinct category, and the EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001 and national AI laws are turning governance into an audit requirement. Multinationals and large groups in Vietnam that use many AI tools face growing shadow AI and agent risks.
6. Other information
