MAIA®
The intelligence of governance, governed, audited, accountable.
MAIA® is governed AI for GRC, embedded within XGRC® to help decision-makers interact with governance records, risks, policies, and compliance data. Faster insight. Better decisions. Full auditability, through controlled, audited AI integrations with a complete interaction audit trail.

What is MAIA®?
Governed AI for GRC is the controlled use of artificial intelligence to interrogate governance, risk, compliance, audit and policy data within defined permissions, security controls and audit trails.
Organisations typically adopt MAIA® when a board question about residual risk takes two days to answer because the risk manager has to compile data manually across systems, and generic AI tools may operate outside the governance, permission and audit controls required for regulated GRC decisions.
What breaks without MAIA®.
Answers take days, not minutes
A board member asks about residual risk in a business unit. The risk manager spends two days compiling a response from multiple systems.
Governance records exist but are inaccessible
Policies, risk registers, audit findings, and compliance records accumulated over years. Too dense, too fragmented for rapid insight generation.
AI tools that create new governance risk
Generic AI tools may operate outside the governance, permission and audit controls required for regulated GRC decisions. Using them for governance decisions creates risk instead of reducing it.
Strategic decisions disconnected from operational risk data
Leadership makes decisions without a live view of the risk and compliance posture. The data exists. Nobody can access it fast enough to matter.
How MAIA® works.
MAIA® is governed AI embedded within the XGRC® platform, using approved AI services through controlled, audited integrations, with permission alignment, data boundary controls, and full auditability of every AI interaction across risk, compliance, policy, and audit records.

Governed AI Architecture
MAIA® is stronger on the platform.
Every XGRC® solution shares the same data foundation. When MAIA® is combined with other solutions, risk, compliance, assurance, and governance data flows without duplication.
What MAIA® is not.
MAIA® is not a generic AI chatbot. It is governed AI designed for GRC contexts, operating within XGRC® Software permissions, records and auditability requirements, every interaction is logged, permissioned and auditable.
Common questions.
Does MAIA® send our data to ChatGPT or other AI providers?
MAIA® uses approved AI services through controlled, audited integrations, with permission alignment and data boundary controls, every AI interaction is logged in a complete audit trail.
Can MAIA® answer questions across all our XGRC® data?
Yes. MAIA® can query risk registers, policies, audit findings and compliance records across every XGRC® solution your organisation uses.
Is MAIA® certified to ISO/IEC 42001?
XGRC® is targeting ISO/IEC 42001 certification for September 2026. MAIA® is already built around governed AI principles, permission alignment, audit trails and explainable outputs, ahead of that certification.
Who can access MAIA®'s answers?
MAIA® respects existing XGRC® user permissions. It only surfaces data a user is already authorised to see.
