AI governance, AI visibility, AI trust — built and operated.
PIGENAI builds and operates the products that let an organization prove how it governs AI, train its people for it, and see whether AI answer engines recommend it. Founder-direct, and every artifact verifiable.
Three ways in.
Prove your AI governance.
Board-ready governance artifacts and role-specific AI literacy training, each with a record an auditor or insurer can verify.
Be the answer AI gives.
Measure whether AI answer engines find, describe and recommend your business, with every answer stored as a transcript you can reread.
Have it done with you.
A CISSP-guided program for your CISO, IT and technical team, with a year of support to keep your AI governance on a steady cadence.
Your tools detect. Your auditors require proof.
Every modern security stack has two layers that see and control AI, and needs a third that proves how it is governed. Observability platforms — SIEM, SOC, AI-SPM — see what is happening at runtime. Enforcement platforms — DLP, CASB, EDR, AI inference firewalls — control what is allowed to happen at the perimeter. Both produce telemetry. Neither produces governance evidence.
Telemetry is not evidence. A blocked IP log is not a policy. A point-in-time audit is not a continuous program.
This is the AI Artifact Gap: the distance between what your tools detect and what EU AI Act Article 4 (AI literacy, applying since February 2, 2025), Colorado SB 26-189, HIPAA, NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 42001 require as documented evidence of an active governance program. PIGENAI builds and operates the products that close it.
What auditors and insurers now ask for has narrowed to three artifacts: an AI Acceptable Use Policy current to the Agentic AI era, an Executive Risk Report mapped to the framework asking, and a Board Memo for the risk minutes. Most organizations are still operating on an AUP written before agentic AI was a category. PIGENAI produces all three as a single verifiable package — each carrying a five-year verification URL the board, the auditor, and the underwriter can query independently.
Your buyers ask AI. Does it name you?
The AEO Gap is whether AI answer engines cite your business when buyers ask about your category. AEO is to the answer-engine era what SEO was to search: visibility you cannot afford to leave to chance, because traffic, brand, and pipeline now route through the engines, not just the search bar. AEO Analyzers measures it on the engines buyers use. Pro and Business ask five answer engines: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Grok. The no-subscription Day Pass asks four.
Three platforms and one executive service.
SaaS purpose-built for mid-market AI and agent governance.
- A five-minute guided assessment generates an AI Acceptable Use Policy, an Executive Risk Report and a Board Memo.
- Each artifact carries a five-year verification URL that auditors and cyber insurance underwriters can query independently.
- Free to start: the Shadow AI Risk Calculator and printable governance templates, no sign-up.
- Five role-based tracks: Board & CEO, CISO / Security Leader, CTO / CIO / IT, Legal / Compliance, and Employee Essentials.
- A Socratic tutor, a transparent deterministic exam and a third-party-verifiable credential.
- Dated, individual, role-specific records that show the measures Article 4 of the EU AI Act asks organizations to take.
- AEO Score: a free check reads your website in about ninety seconds and names the gaps; the fixes come with paid plans.
- Citation Sweeps: a separate analysis, available with the Day Pass or a Pro or Business subscription, that puts a buyer’s real questions to the engines. Pro and Business ask five answer engines: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Grok. The no-subscription Day Pass asks four.
- Every sweep answer is stored as a transcript, and paid plans return the fixes: verified JSON-LD, content rewrites and a prioritized checklist.
It is self-serve measurement software with public pricing: you run it on your own site. It is not a consulting engagement and not part of a governance assessment.
A CISSP-guided program with twelve months of support. Limited seats.

AI Governance Strategy, Consulting and Board Advisory
For organizations that want a CISSP to work with their board, CEO, CISO or IT team directly. PIGENAI provides AI governance strategy and roadmapping, board and executive advisory, agentic-system design, and custom governance tooling, scoped to your risk exposure and regulatory calendar. Engagements begin at $5,000 for a four-hour session, and scope and pricing are agreed case by case. Each engagement is led and delivered by the founding CISSP.
Assessments built by an operator, on the products we run.
We run every assessment on the same products a customer can deploy and verify on their own: SanctumShield's governance artifacts, the Academy's training records, and AEO Analyzers' stored transcripts.
Every engagement produces an artifact your board, your auditor, and your underwriter can independently verify. Every artifact carries a regulatory clause-map. Every recommendation is anchored to a framework already in effect or arriving on a published timeline.
Operator-built. Auditor-ready. Underwriter-friendly. Board-ready.

What is the AI Artifact Gap?
The AI Artifact Gap is the distance between what a security stack can detect at runtime and what a compliance program must prove as documented evidence — the governance artifacts required by EU AI Act Article 4 (AI literacy, applying since February 2, 2025), Colorado SB 26-189, HIPAA, NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 42001. Telemetry is not evidence; PIGENAI builds and operates the products that close the gap.
What is the AEO Gap?
The AEO Gap is whether AI answer engines cite your business when buyers ask about your category. Answer Engine Optimization is to the answer-engine era what SEO was to search: traffic, brand, and pipeline now route through the engines. PIGENAI measures this gap with AEO Analyzers, self-serve software a company runs on its own site. Pro and Business ask five answer engines: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Grok. The no-subscription Day Pass asks four.
What does Article 4 of the EU AI Act require?
Article 4 requires measures that support AI literacy, suited to each person's role and context, and has applied since February 2, 2025. Dated, individual, role-specific training records are how an organization shows which measures it took, for whom and when. The SanctumShield AI Literacy Academy produces those records. See the Academy curriculum
Where can I start for free?
Four places, with no call needed: the Shadow AI Risk Calculator (sanctumshield.com/calculator), a free AEO score (aeoanalyzers.com), sample governance artifacts (sanctumshield.com/sample-outputs), and the Academy curriculum (academy.sanctumshield.com/curriculum).
