When your AI changes daily, governance built for last decade’s privacy workflows can’t keep up.
Legacy GRC tools like OneTrust were born to manage privacy and consent checklists. Their AI governance features are bolted on — adding “AI” to systems that were never designed for dynamic, high-velocity model lifecycles. That mismatch leaves you exposed:
- Blind spots in vendor, model, and lifecycle risk monitoring
- Slow, resource-heavy setups that stall AI adoption
- Governance lagging innovation — reactive instead of enabling
In today’s regulatory climate, those gaps aren’t just inefficiencies — they’re enterprise risks.
AI-First Governance for AI-First Enterprises Credo AI was Built For
Credo AI was built from the ground up for AI, not privacy. That means:
- Dynamic Oversight – Continuous, model-aware risk tracking from design to deployment
- AI-Native Compliance – Out-of-the-box alignment with EU AI Act, NIST RMF, ISO/IEC 42001
- Open, Plug-and-Play Integrations – Connect to Azure AI Foundry, OpenAI, Anthropic, Databricks, MLflow, ServiceNow, GitHub, Slack, and more — no vendor lock-in
- Operationalized Governance – Policy packs, templates, and mitigations deployed in weeks, not quarters
From Bottleneck to Business Enabler
C-Suite leaders don’t just need compliance—they need confidence that governance is accelerating business, not slowing it down.
Credo AI helps enterprises:
- Accelerate model approvals with automated risk scoring and mitigation recommendations.
- Reduce governance friction—a Fortune 100 financial services customer cut it by 60%.
- Provide clear ROI visibility through adoption tracking, readiness scoring, and executive-level reporting.
When governance happens where your teams already work, you get faster decisions, better oversight, and higher returns on AI investments.
Why Enterprises Switch from OneTrust
Senior leaders at top enterprises cite three recurring reasons for switching:
- Complex, resource-heavy setup — “We needed plug-and-play.”
- Limited vendor and model visibility — “We wanted oversight integrated with our AI pipeline.”
- Stronger AI expertise — “Credo AI understood real-world AI governance far better.”
Customer Proof:
“We’re keeping OneTrust for privacy, but chose Credo AI for AI governance.” — Director of Data, Global Restaurant Brand
“OneTrust’s AI module felt complex and resource-heavy; we needed plug-and-play.” — Head of Risk, Global Insurer

The Competitive Edge in One View

Switch Without the Disruption
Credo AI’s migration process is designed for speed and continuity:
- Run in parallel with OneTrust for privacy while transitioning AI governance.
- Import what works—registries, policies, and assessments—then modernize the rest.
- Rely on Credo AI’s forward-deployed AI governance experts—our Advisory Services team maps controls, configures workflows, and trains your teams for fast adoption.
C-Suite Visibility Without the Guesswork
Executives need more than compliance confirmation—they need governance tied to outcomes:
- Live risk and readiness scores that adjust as models and vendors change.
- Portfolio-level dashboards tracking adoption, ROI, and policy adherence.
- Executive briefings translating governance metrics into strategic decision-making.
With Credo AI, governance becomes a tool for both regulatory resilience and business growth.
The Bottom Line
AI is evolving too quickly for governance built on yesterday’s frameworks. Traditional GRC tools like OneTrust can’t match the agility, integration, and AI-first oversight that today’s enterprises demand.
Credo AI was built for the AI era—giving you governance that scales with innovation, aligns automatically with global regulations, and delivers measurable business value.
Switch now and govern trusted AI at the speed of AI. See why global leaders are choosing Credo AI over retrofitted GRC tools.
