Building trusted AI starts with trusted partners. As enterprises evaluate an expanding landscape of AI providers, the central question persists: Who can they trust?
Since our founding we have led the way in creating AI governance categories and shaping AI governance to make trust the foundation of every AI initiative. In the past two years with the democratization of generative AI, it became clear that defining and scaling was even more critical. Through strategic alliances with global leaders like Microsoft, IBM, Booz Allen, Databricks, McKinsey, EXL and Version 1, we've cultivated a comprehensive ecosystem to accomplish that goal - to scale the adoption of responsible and trustworthy AI.
Today, Credo AI announces the official launch of the Global Credo AI Partner Program, expanding our growing network of partners across cloud, data, GRC, consulting, and AI infrastructure.
Global Partnerships are Rooted in a Trusted Ecosystem
The Partner Program is rooted in a core belief: Trusted AI requires an ecosystem, not silos. In collaboration with its partners, Credo AI is weaving a "trust fabric" across the enterprise, embedding governance into the platforms, processes, and tools organizations already use to build and scale AI. The program aligns innovation with compliance, risk, and AI standards.
AI governance is no longer a nice-to-have — it's the competitive differentiator that separates AI leaders from AI laggards - said Navrina Singh, Founder and CEO of Credo AI. But no single company can solve this challenge alone. Our Global Partner Program brings together the best in AI tooling, cloud, data, GRC and services to help organizations embed trust in AI and govern responsibly, at scale.
With our Global Partner Program, our collaborations become formalized, structured, and scalable with the following benefits:
- Integrated Governance from AI/ML system design through production and monitoring
- AI Risk Visibility & Alignment across model, data, and organizational layers
- Regulatory Readiness aligned with the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and vertical-specific standards
- Go-to-Market Collaboration, offering joint governance solutions to global enterprise customers

Your Strategic Partner for Accelerating Trusted AI Adoption
In today’s race toward enterprise AI transformation, ROI is not one-size-fits-all—and that’s exactly where Credo AI stands apart. We’ve designed a channel partnership model that delivers differentiated value to each player in the ecosystem, tailored to their unique strengths and strategic objectives.
A Partner-Centric Model Built for Enterprise Impact
Credo AI supports eight distinct channel partner types—spanning global system integrators, management consultancies, hyperscalers, federal contractors, boutique firms, ISVs, audit providers, and distributor/reseller channels. Our governance platform is the connective tissue that enables every partner to play a critical and value-added role in operationalizing trusted AI at scale.
What That Looks Like in Practice:
- For Services Firms: Our software catalyzes significant downstream services pull through—driving 10x to 15x in services for every $1 in software. That includes AI use case onboarding, risk and compliance workflows, and organizational change management.
- For Management Consultancies: Credo AI is a strategic enabler. We provide the infrastructure to move beyond high-level AI principles and actually operationalize trust and responsibility—making governance measurable, repeatable, and scalable. This becomes a foundational pillar in enterprise AI transformation programs.
- For Hyperscalers: Platforms like Microsoft and Amazon bring models and infrastructure. Credo AI completes the equation with use case-level governance—ensuring model deployments are aligned with internal policies, regulatory standards, and organizational accountability.
- For Audit Partners: We deliver the governance and assurance layer that allows partners like Schellman to scale consistent, defensible AI audits—unlocking new revenue streams and client value.
- For Resellers and Regional Partners: Credo AI offers a path to move beyond reselling point solutions—helping partners evolve into strategic enablers of trusted AI outcomes for their enterprise clients.
