Know every AI system in your enterprise, then govern it
Kanawai is the enterprise AI system of record: continuous shadow AI discovery, a living AI inventory, and policy enforcement for AI security and compliance. This pilot is for security and governance leaders who need to understand AI risk, security, and compliance.
- Built for CISO, CAIO, and Compliance
- No cost for the pilot period
What is an AI governance pilot with Kanawai AI?
A Kanawai AI governance pilot is a no-cost 30-day engagement that discovers approved and shadow AI across your environment, builds an owned inventory of models, tools, and agents, and shows how AI security and governance policy attach to that inventory, so security leaders evaluate with real evidence, not a slide deck.
Why security and governance teams run this pilot
Enterprises adopt copilots, agents, and model APIs faster than security can inventory them. Agents now outnumber employees in many organizations by a 10:1 ratio. Security still lacks a single answer to: what AI exists, who owns it, what’s sanctioned, and what isn’t.
Kanawai AI provides enterprise-wide visibility, governance, and security for AI tools, including unsanctioned shadow AI, from one platform.
Who this pilot is for
- CISOs and security architecture leads accountable for AI enterprise security
- Teams hunting shadow AI without another spreadsheet inventory
- GRC / compliance leads preparing EU AI Act or NIST AI RMF evidence
- CAIOs partnering with security on enforceable AI governance
Not the primary fit: pure FinOps / token-spend owners. See the AI FinOps pilot.
What you get in 30 days
- 1
Shadow AI discovery
Continuous discovery of AI tools, plugins, and model endpoints, including unsanctioned ones.
- 2
Enterprise AI inventory
A living system of record: what’s running, who’s using it, and where ownership gaps sit.
- 3
AI governance mapping
How internal policy and regulatory frameworks attach to real systems, not checklists alone.
- 4
AI security posture read
Where data exposure, access, and unsanctioned use concentrate.
- 5
Executive readout
What to remediate first, what’s already governed, and what the next 90 days should cover.
How the no-cost pilot works
| Week | Focus | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Connect & discover | Initial inventory of sanctioned + shadow AI signals |
| 2 | Inventory & owners | Systems mapped to teams; gaps flagged |
| 3 | Policy & risk | Governance / security priorities against the live inventory |
| 4 | Readout | Pilot report + recommended go / no-go scope |
Commercial terms: 30 days, no cost for the pilot itself. No obligation to purchase. Any paid conversion is a separate decision after the readout.
AI governance vs AI security vs AI inventory
- AI inventory
- Answers what exists.
- AI security
- Answers how you protect data, access, and usage.
- AI governance
- Answers which rules apply and whether they are enforced.
- Kanawai AI
- One system of record, so inventory, security, and governance share the same list of AI systems, including shadow AI.
What this is not
- Not a one-week pen test of a single chatbot
- Not “buy our gateway” disguised as a pilot
- Not a promise of a fixed percentage risk reduction without your data
Frequently asked questions
What is shadow AI?
Shadow AI is unsanctioned AI tools, plugins, or model endpoints in use across the enterprise without security’s full inventory or approval. A governance pilot starts by discovering that usage so it can be inventoried and governed.
How does Kanawai help with AI enterprise security?
Kanawai gives security a continuous view of AI tools and usage, ties them to an owned inventory, and supports governance and compliance controls so AI security decisions are based on what actually exists, not quarterly surveys.
Is the 30-day pilot really no cost?
Yes. The pilot period is no cost. You are not charged for the 30-day evaluation itself. Any paid subscription or expansion is optional and only after you decide.
Do we need to finish EU AI Act prep in 30 days?
No. The pilot shows how inventory and evidence generation support frameworks such as the EU AI Act and NIST AI RMF. Full regulatory programs take longer; the pilot proves the system-of-record approach.
How is this different from an LLM gateway or DLP-only tool?
Gateways and DLP control traffic or data paths that you already see. Kanawai centers on discovering and inventorying AI systems, including shadow AI, and attaching governance. Then security and spend controls have something complete to govern.
What do we need to start?
A pilot sponsor on the security or CAIO side, and one scoping call. We deploy the pilot as quickly as 30 minutes.
Request the AI Governance & Security Pilot
We’ll confirm scope in one call, then get to work.
