Practical AI Governance & ISO Audit Practice
Xtant.tech is an independent AI governance advisory and audit consulting practice. We bridge the deep divide between high-velocity machine learning engineering and formal international compliance standards like ISO/IEC 42001 and ISO/IEC 27001.
Engineering-First Governance
Most compliance firms treat AI like traditional IT: static checklists, lengthy policy binders, and annual questionnaires. We know that modern AI systems are dynamic, probabilistic, and autonomous. Effective governance requires runtime guardrails, prompt sanitization, and automated telemetry baked directly into your developer workflows.
Auditor Independence
As an independent consulting and internal audit practice, we prepare your management systems with rigorous objectivity. We do not act as an accredited certification registrar, which preserves our complete impartiality to advise, engineer, and defend your architecture during external Stage 1 & Stage 2 audits.
Lead Auditor
Our consulting engagements, audit preparations, and research publications are directly authored and led by certified professionals with verified international credentials.
