Most startups don’t need enterprise level compliance… But they do need to be defensible.

One of the biggest misconceptions we see:

Founders think AI governance is something you “figure out later.”

IT’S NOT

If your product:

• uses AI
• handles data
• or influences decisions

you already have exposure whether it’s visible or not.

⸻

So we simplified it.

This is the framework we use at SIGL to assist startups to become compliant right away:

—— Minimum Viable AI Governance™ ——

The baseline every AI-enabled company should have in place:

1. Risk Awareness
Understand what your system does, where it can fail, and who it impacts

2. Basic Policy Layer
Define how your AI is used, what’s allowed and where boundaries exist

3. Documentation
Be able to explain your system clearly internally and externally

4. Security Hygiene
Protect data, control access and reduce exposure points

5. Verification
Ensure what you built actually holds up in the real world

⸻

This isn’t about slowing innovation down.

It’s about building something that can actually stand up to scrutiny.
