Credo AI

Credo AI is an enterprise AI governance, risk, and compliance platform that helps organizations discover, assess, and govern every AI agent, model, and application in context. It automates AI oversight and aligns deployments with regulations like the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001.

Founded in 2020 by Navrina Singh (CEO) and Eli Chen, Credo AI is a Palo Alto-based company that pioneered the category of AI governance. Its cloud-based platform provides a centralized command center for measuring, monitoring, and managing AI risk across use cases, models, datasets, agents, and vendors, helping Global 2000 enterprises and public-sector agencies adopt and scale AI responsibly. The platform combines an AI Registry for discovering and classifying AI assets (including shadow AI), Risk Intelligence for continuous monitoring and automated red-teaming, and a Policy Engine with pre-built policy packs that map to regulations and standards such as the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, SOC 2, GDPR, and NYC Local Law 144. Credo AI also offers GAIA (Govern AI Assistant), an AI governance agent, alongside advisory services for assessments, roadmaps, and training. The company was named a Leader in The Forrester Wave: AI Governance Solutions, Q3 2025, and recognized by Gartner, IDC, CB Insights (AI 100), and Fast Company.
