This week, Credo AI was named to Fast Company’s Next Big Things in Tech list — a recognition reserved for technologies poised to shape how the world works, builds, and trusts the future.
For AI governance to appear alongside breakthroughs in robotics, sustainability, and deep science is more than an honor. It is validation that trust is no longer an afterthought in AI — it is foundational.
Why Fast Company Chose Credo AI
Five years ago, when AI discussions centered on accuracy and scale, we took a different path: trust. We built the first enterprise platform dedicated to governing AI — not as policy documents or compliance exercises, but as an intelligent system that scales. Today, that platform empowers Global 2000 leaders like Mastercard, Cisco, McKinsey, and Booz Allen to deploy AI systems and, increasingly, autonomous agents with transparency, accountability, and control.
Fast Company recognized Credo AI for leading this shift. Our AI Governance & Trust Platform delivers:
- Real-time oversight across AI models, systems, and agents
- Trust benchmarking and risk registries that help organizations quantify impact
- Policy integration and compliance automation aligned to global regulations
- Scalability for the next era of agentic AI, where systems make decisions independently
At a time when AI is advancing faster than institutions, Credo AI is ensuring that innovation and accountability advance together.
A Turning Point in Enterprise AI
Enterprises are no longer asking if they should govern AI — but how. The next wave of AI innovation will not be defined by what models can do, but by what organizations can responsibly deploy.
The risks are real: bias, security breaches, hallucinations, unknown agent behavior. But so is the opportunity: accelerated decision-making, competitive differentiation, and new forms of human–AI collaboration. Fast Company’s recognition marks an inflection point. Governance is no longer a gate — it is the unlock.
From Principles to Practice
Credo AI’s impact is driven not only by technology, but by ecosystem leadership:
- Partnering with Microsoft to embed governance into AI agent workflows
- Powering IBM watsonx with Credo AI Policy Packs
- Informing global regulators and standards bodies
- Introducing Model Trust Scores to benchmark AI accountability across use cases
This is what it means to operationalize trust — converting policy into practice, principles into proof.
A Message from Our Founder
As our Founder & CEO, Navrina Singh, shared:
“This recognition from Fast Company underscores a global reality — AI cannot be transformative without trust,” said Navrina Singh, Founder and CEO of Credo AI. “Enterprises are no longer asking if they should govern AI, but how. Credo AI was built to answer that question — giving organizations the Trust OS to deploy AI systems and agents securely, safely, and with long-term impact. This award celebrates our teams, customers, and partners who recognize that governance is not just a necessity — it’s a catalyst for trusted AI adoption and a source of competitive advantage in the AI era.”
What Comes Next
The next five years will test AI’s promise. Autonomous agents, multimodal models, and AI-driven decisions will redefine industries. With them will come new questions of security, safety, ethics, regulation, and control.
Credo AI will continue to lead — building the trusted AI governance to ensure AI serves society, securely and responsibly.
Governance you can prove. AI you can trust.
