Guvn.Ai helps navigate Australia’s complex AI regulations.

Right now your organisation is running AI it hasn't approved. Regulators are watching. The liability is yours when things go wrong.

Guvn.Ai is how we govern AI. Find shadow AI. Guide approved AI projects. Automate AI Asset Registry. Log, monitor, and control AI use. Generate audit-ready reports for your Board and regulators.

Shine a light on your AI.

The AI your organisation is running. The governance it needs.

Discover

If it's running in your organisation, we find it: network, browser, identity, SaaS, and code.

Assess

Know the risk profile of every AI asset in your organisation, in real time, before it becomes a problem.

Control

Incidents and risks mapped to controls across every framework that matters to Australian organisations.

Prove

Directors need more than assurance. They need evidence. Board packs and audit trails, ready when it matters.

The Platform

One system. Discover, govern, and prove it.

AI Asset Registry

We give you a live, classified inventory of every AI asset, agent, and integration, from day one.

Asset Inventory

Discovery & Detection

Stop shadow AI (the assets your teams are using that IT and leadership haven't approved) before it becomes a liability. Always-on detection across every surface your teams use.

Sanctioned + Shadow

Framework, Policy & Control Manager

NAIC AI6, Privacy Act, APRA, ISO 42001: all mapped to a single control set, with evidence capture and exception management built in.

Controls

Assessment & Incident Management

Risk assessments, incidents, and controls: all connected. Every event is captured, triaged, and traceable from the moment it happens.

Risk + Incidents

Reporting Suite

One source of truth. Board summaries, regulator packs, and audit trails all flow from the same evidence layer, on demand, with no manual work.

Director-ready

Education & Training

Plain-language guidance, policy walkthroughs, and role-based training that ensures the right questions get asked sooner. Governance that guides behaviour, not just documents it.

Awareness
Board-ready evidence

The evidence trail directors can stand behind.

Personal liability under section 180 of the Corporations Act applies to AI failures the same way it applies to any other governance failure. The Australian Institute of Company Directors has been clear: directors must be able to demonstrate informed oversight. That requires evidence, not assurance.

AI6
Our Foundation Framework

Built on Australia's AI6 standard.

Published National AI Centre, October 2025
Status Voluntary, principles-based, technology-neutral
Take the AI6 Maturity Assessment

The AI6 is Australia's primary guidance for responsible AI adoption: six essential practices published by the National AI Centre in October 2025.

Technically voluntary, but increasingly what boards, regulators and auditors expect to see, much like Australia's cybersecurity baseline became the de facto standard for every serious organisation.

Guvn.Ai is built on the AI6 as its control baseline. Every feature maps to the six practices, with the Privacy Act and APRA at the centre, not bolted on afterwards. So you meet Australian obligations first, with alignment against international standards.

Accountability Impact Assessment Risk Management Transparency Testing Human Control
Regulatory Coverage

Every obligation. Already mapped.

Federal, state, sector, and international frameworks, built natively for Australian organisations. 33 frameworks, one control set, Australian-first, with international standards cross-mapped on top.

For directors & legal counsel

D&O protection for directors
Regulatory
Enforcement is already here
ASIC, APRA, OAIC, and AUSTRAC have all confirmed their existing powers cover AI. No new legislation needed. REP 798 found zero of 23 licensees had adequate AI contestability, the ability for customers to challenge AI-driven decisions. The next review won't be a warning.
Director Liability
Your name is on the line
Courts have already applied s.180 duty of care to cybersecurity failures. AI governance is next. If you can't show you understood and managed the risk, you're exposed.
Operational & Insurance
Your insurer won't cover it
D&O and cyber policies are being repriced to exclude AI incidents where governance was absent. A harm, a breach, a biased decision. If there's no evidence of controls, the claim lands on the balance sheet. Personally.
Reputational
No process is its own story
Investigations and AI incidents are public. The organisations that take the most lasting damage aren't those that made mistakes, they're the ones with nothing documented. There is no defence without evidence.
