Prove your AI is governed.
Before someone else proves it isn’t.
Sentinel Assurance Group delivers third-party AI governance assessments, ISO/IEC 42001 readiness, and adversarial testing, with the same documented rigor our founders apply inside an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratory.
AI regulation stopped being hypothetical.
If your business deploys AI, even a vendor’s model behind your own brand, you now carry obligations you may have never inventoried: impact assessments, risk management programs, human-oversight controls, incident-response duties. Enterprise buyers are ahead of the regulators: ISO/IEC 42001 is already appearing in RFPs.
Most firms answering this moment are advisors selling slideware, or auditors who have never operated under accreditation themselves. We built Sentinel to be the third option.
One ladder. Start where you actually are.
AI Readiness Snapshot
Fixed-scope, fast. Twelve anchor controls rated on documented evidence against NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001 under SG-MTH-RS-01 v1.0, with a board-ready report and a verdict of CLEARED, CONDITIONAL, or HELD.
Gap Assessment
The full Sentinel Control Map™: 47 NIST AI RMF subcategories mapped to ISO/IEC 42001 clauses, scored with evidence.
AI Deployment Gate
One system, five gates, one GREEN / YELLOW / RED decision, before it touches real users and again on every material change.
Sentinel GreenLight™
Application assurance for software teams: security, usability, privacy, and AI-governance triage before you ship.
Assurance is our operating system, not our pitch.
Our leadership operates an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited, DEA-registered testing laboratory, a business where impartiality, chain of custody, method validation, and documented evidence are conditions of existence, audited every year. ANAB, the body that accredits our laboratory world, is the same body accrediting ISO/IEC 42001 certification programs.
We did not read about assurance. We live under it. That discipline, not a slide template, is what we bring to your AI program.
A straight line from “where are we?” to “certified and sustained.”
Snapshot
A two-week readiness snapshot tells you exactly where you stand, and whether you need anything more.
Gap Assessment
Full Control Map scoring with prioritized remediation, sequenced by regulatory deadline and business risk.
Deployment Gate
A go / no-go decision on each AI system before it ships, and again on change, on schedule and after any incident.
Certify & Sustain
Certification-readiness review, then a lifecycle Gate retainer so the program survives contact with reality. We assess; accredited bodies certify.
What we won’t tell you
That compliance is guaranteed, that one document set makes you “audit-proof,” or that you need services you don’t. Our triage is free and our scoping is honest: if a snapshot is all you need, that’s what we’ll recommend.
AI regulation, translated.
August 2: the EU AI Act gets teeth
GPAI enforcement switched on, with fines up to 3% of global turnover. What actually reaches a US company.
Companion-chatbot laws: California SB 243
The first US companion-chatbot law: AI disclosure, self-harm protocols, and a private right of action.
ISO/IEC 42001 in plain English
What certification actually requires, clause by clause, Annex A and all, without the consultant fog.
