AI governance
Hyvo Guard
Shadow AI, found. Policy, enforced.
Your team is already using AI — the only question is whether anyone can see how. Most governance tools stop at a policy document nobody checks against reality. Hyvo Guard discovers the tools and API keys actually moving your data, turns a plain-English policy into an enforced rule, and blocks a leak in the moment instead of flagging it in next week's report.
For companies that adopted AI faster than their compliance team could blink.
Why it needs to exist
This is the status quo Hyvo Guard replaces.
Nobody knows what AI tools the team actually uses
Shadow tools and personal API keys move company data with zero visibility.
The AI policy is a PDF
Written once, filed away, never checked against what's actually happening.
A customer asks how you govern AI, and there's no good answer
Security questionnaires and audits turn into a last-minute scramble.
What it does
Every module below is included in every plan.
Finds the AI you don't know about
Discovers unsanctioned tools and personal API keys actually moving data, not just domains someone visited.
Policy in a sentence, enforced in code
Write "no customer PII into ChatGPT" and it becomes a real rule, not a PDF nobody reads.
Blocks in the moment, not next week
Redacts or stops a leak as it happens, instead of surfacing it in a report after the fact.
Evidence packs on demand
Assembles the policy, tool inventory, and control logs into the exact packet a SOC 2 auditor or customer questionnaire asks for.
Risk-scores every new tool
Pulls a vendor's data-retention and training-use terms the moment someone tries it, before it becomes a habit.
Runs the audit before the regulator does
Simulates an EU AI Act or customer-security review against current usage and surfaces the gaps first.
How it works
Discover what's actually in use
Tools, models, and API keys touching company data, found rather than self-reported.
Write policy in plain English
"No customer PII into ChatGPT" becomes an enforced rule, not a document.
It watches and steps in
Redacts or blocks in the moment when a rule would be broken.
Evidence is always ready
Policy, inventory, and logs assemble into an audit or questionnaire packet on demand.
Built for
Companies selling into enterprise
Need a credible answer to AI governance questions in security reviews and SOC 2 audits.
Fast-growing teams
AI adoption outpaced any formal policy, and leadership wants visibility before it becomes a problem.
Regulated-adjacent industries
Need to show EU AI Act or customer-contract compliance without a dedicated compliance hire.
Questions
Does this block employees from using AI tools entirely?
No — it enforces specific rules, like PII handling, not blanket bans. The goal is safe use, not no use.
How does it find tools we haven't approved?
Through the same channels the data actually leaves by — network and API-key activity, not just an install list someone maintains.
Can this replace a SOC 2 or compliance audit?
No, but it generates the evidence pack that makes one materially faster to pass.
Does it work with AI tools we've built in-house?
Yes — internal tools and custom API integrations can be registered and governed the same way as third-party ones.
