Control Plane for regulated systems
Modern organisations operate dozens of AI-driven decision systems. These systems influence credit decisions, transaction monitoring, fraud detection, risk modelling and internal audit processes. Regulators expect structural control. Most institutions can't prove it.
What is a Control Plane?
A control plane is a governance layer that monitors and conditions the operation of underlying systems.
ActReady operates as a non-intrusive overlay that registers regulated systems, determines applicable regulatory context, enforces governance conditions and records audit-ready evidence.
The platform governs regulated systems without running or replacing them.
Control plane architecture
ActReady structures governance across four operational layers.
System Registration
Every regulated AI system is registered in a central registry. This registry captures purpose, operational status, ownership and regulatory classification.
The registry forms the single source of truth for AI-driven decision infrastructure.
Regulatory Classification
Each system is classified according to applicable regulatory frameworks — including AI Act, DORA, AML directives and internal governance frameworks.
Classification determines which governance controls apply.
Governance Enforcement
Policy obligations are translated into executable governance controls: operational authorisation checks, identity verification, regulatory boundary enforcement, model usage conditions.
Controls operate during execution — not retroactively during audit preparation.
Evidence Generation
Every governance action produces a deterministic evidence record: timestamped execution logs, control outcomes, system status and responsible actors.
Evidence is continuously available for inspection and audit.
Integration with existing infrastructure
ActReady is designed as a governance overlay. The platform integrates with existing risk frameworks, identity infrastructure, AI platforms and compliance tooling.
Organisations do not need to replace existing systems.
Organisations gain structural control over AI-driven decision infrastructure while maintaining operational flexibility.
