What makes OpterAI different

OpterAI is not a GRC platform.

Most AI governance tools tell you what happened after the AI acted. OpterAI controls whether the AI action is allowed to happen at all.

GRC systems document policies, risks and controls around systems. OpterAI operates inside the execution path of AI systems themselves. It controls whether an AI action is allowed to execute.

Traditional GRC Documents the policy Risk registers, attestations and audit evidence about what should happen.
OpterAI Enforces the policy at runtime Intercepts prompts and AI actions, applies constitutional controls and business rules, blocks unsafe execution, alerts reviewers and records every decision.
The execution problem

AI risk is no longer just a policy problem.

AI systems now generate decisions faster than conventional governance, risk and compliance processes can respond. AITru is designed for the moment where a decision is about to execute and the organisation needs a defensible answer: should this action be allowed to happen?

PreventStop harmful decisions before operational damage occurs.
EscalateRoute material decisions to named human authority.
ProvePreserve the evidence needed for audit and review.
ScaleDeploy more AI without surrendering operational control.
Enterprise AI control infrastructure

A practical control layer for high-stakes AI.

OpterAI is AITru’s real-time constitutional control layer. It sits in the execution path of AI systems, evaluates each proposed action, and only permits execution when the action is safe, lawful, aligned and auditable.

OpterAI

Always on. Always watching. Always ahead.

OpterAI gives enterprises a command centre for AI decisions across public LLM assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot, internal models, agent networks, SaaS-embedded AI, automated workflows and external model APIs.

The control system for AI decisions

Before an AI action executes, OpterAI evaluates the request against policy, authority limits and governance rules. The decision can be approved, blocked, modified or escalated before risk propagates into the business.

  • Validates AI decisions at the moment of execution.
  • Blocks or escalates unsafe, non-compliant or unauthorised actions.
  • Supports guided prompt compliance to help users remain productive.
  • Records every governed AI interaction with operational traceability.

How OpterAI deploys. Coverage is defined by what is connected. Within the customer estate, OpterAI is configured against a set of connected systems (models, agents, SaaS tools, workflows and APIs). Together these form the control perimeter. Governance applies to active links inside that perimeter, not to systems outside it.

Constitutional protection system architecture

OpterAI operates as part of AITru’s constitutional protection system, translating rules, challenge, verification and evidence into real-time operational control.

A short illustrative animation of OpterAI's runtime control flow, showing how prompts and AI actions are intercepted, evaluated against policy, and recorded into the audit trail. The two screenshots below are from the live platform itself.

An unsafe ChatGPT prompt, intercepted.

An illustration of how OpterAI handles an unsafe prompt directed at ChatGPT. The request is refused, the user is shown a constitutional verdict, and the event is sealed into the audit chain before the model can respond.

The operational console: real product screenshot.

A real screenshot from the live OpterAI platform. Every AI decision flowing through OpterAI is inspected, classified and surfaced in real time. Risk, compliance and security teams see what passed, what was warned, and what was blocked, without waiting for an end-of-quarter report or a manual log review.

OpterAI alert detail for record AUD-SHOW-20260520-00002. A prompt requesting redacted illegal activity is blocked with status RED 1, AMBER 0, GREEN 0. The record shows an immutable hash, previous hash and hash version, evidencing a tamper-evident chain.

A real blocked prompt, captured with proof.

A real audit record from the OpterAI platform. When OpterAI blocks an action it doesn't just stop the request, it records it. The prompt, the constitutional verdict, the rationale shown back to the user, and the cryptographic record ID with previous-hash reference are all preserved together.

That hash chain is what turns a console event into auditable evidence. Each record is linked to the one before it, so tampering breaks the chain and is immediately detectable.

Core capabilities

Enterprise AI control without slowing the business.

The objective is not to produce more governance paperwork. The objective is to ensure AI decisions cannot execute unless they satisfy defined organisational, legal, ethical and operational controls.

Show all 8 capabilities Hide capabilities

Ensure material decisions remain gated by defined human authority rather than self-authorised automation.

6

Prompt compliance guidance

Suggest safer or more compliant prompts where a user’s original request risks breaching policy.

7

Truth verification

Challenge reasoning and validate information to reduce hallucination, misinformation and synthetic contamination risk.

8

Board and auditor visibility

Give senior leaders, risk teams and auditors a live operational view of AI usage and control evidence.

Built around the enterprise, not generic AI policy

Your rules. Your reviewers. Enforced at machine speed.

Buyers do not just want “AI safety”. They want their own business rules enforced before AI actions create exposure, and they want named humans in the loop when material decisions arise.

Show how rules and human review work Hide rules and review detail

Your rules, not generic AI policy

OpterAI enforces enterprise-specific rules at runtime, including:

  • Decision authority and approval limits
  • Financial commitment and exposure thresholds
  • Customer-impact escalation rules
  • Risk appetite boundaries
  • Confidentiality and data-handling rules
  • Regulatory and jurisdictional requirements
  • Internal approval and sign-off workflows
Your policy library becomes an enforceable runtime control, not a slide deck attestation.

Human review is not an afterthought

When OpterAI detects a material, unsafe or policy-sensitive AI action, it operates an end-to-end review workflow:

  • Alerts the designated reviewer mapped to the breached policy
  • Holds the AI action before it can execute
  • Records the escalation with full decision context
  • Updates the OpterAI Control Panel with the reviewer’s decision
  • Captures remedial action for audit and continuous improvement
Human oversight as operational workflow, not a slide in a governance deck.
Where OpterAI wins

Concrete answers to what our customers actually ask.

Here is exactly what OpterAI's runtime constitutional control looks like in practice, and why other platforms cannot deliver it.

Show answers & platform comparison Hide answers & comparison
01

What OpterAI stops

  • Prompts containing customer PII, PHI, PCI or confidential pricing leaving the perimeter to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot.
  • Agent tool-calls that would write to production systems without the required human approval.
  • AI-generated decisions that exceed defined authority limits, financial, contractual, operational or customer-facing commitments.
  • Model outputs that fail truth, bias or jurisdictional checks before they reach a customer.
  • Multi-step agent workflows where any single step breaches policy, even when each step looks safe in isolation.
02

Who gets alerted

  • The user, with a real-time block, a plain-English reason, and a compliant alternative prompt where one exists.
  • The named human authority, the specific approver mapped to the policy that was breached, routed via Slack, Teams, email or webhook.
  • Risk, compliance and audit, through a live operational console and rule-based notification routing.
  • Security and SOC, when a block is also a security signal: data exfiltration attempt, prompt injection, jailbreak.
  • Board and regulators, via scheduled or on-demand evidence packs generated from the audit record.
03

What evidence is created

  • The exact prompt, agent call or model output that triggered the event.
  • The identity of the initiator, human or machine, and the system of origin.
  • The policy version, rule and clause that was evaluated, with the decision rationale.
  • The authority path taken, approve, block, modify or escalate, with timestamps at every step.
  • An immutable, timestamped audit record structured for regulator submission and external assurance.
Adjacent tools

Why audit and GRC platforms cannot deliver this?

These platforms are valuable, but each is built for a different layer of the problem. OpterAI is the layer that decides, in real time, whether an AI action is permitted to execute.

Microsoft

Purview, Defender, Copilot Studio

Designed for: data classification, identity, endpoint protection and Copilot configuration inside the Microsoft 365 estate.

Where it ends: these tools govern data access and tenant boundaries. They do not evaluate the reasoning, intent or downstream action of an AI decision, and they do not extend across non-Microsoft models, agents and SaaS.

OpterAI differenceConstitutional evaluation of the decision itself, across every model, agent and tool, not just the Microsoft stack.
ServiceNow

AI Control Tower & Now Assist governance

Designed for: orchestrating workflows, tickets and risk registers around AI usage inside the ServiceNow platform.

Where it ends: it documents, routes and reports. It does not sit in the execution path of an AI action and block it at machine speed before damage occurs.

OpterAI differencePre-execution permissioning inline with the AI call, not a workflow that runs after the fact.
GRC platforms

Archer, OneTrust, MetricStream, ServiceNow GRC

Designed for: policy management, control libraries, risk registers and attestations for the enterprise compliance programme.

Where it ends: they hold the rules and the evidence of attestation. They do not enforce a rule against a live AI decision before it executes.

OpterAI differenceTranslates the policy held in the GRC system into an enforceable runtime control, the missing actuator between policy and execution.
Audit & SIEM

Audit platforms, SIEM, AI observability tools

Designed for: logging, monitoring, drift detection and post-hoc forensics across AI and security activity.

Where it ends: they tell you something went wrong, after the unsafe AI action has already executed and the data has already moved.

OpterAI differencePrevention before execution, with the evidence record produced as a by-product of the block, not as the only output.
Why runtime control matters

From compliance reporting to compliance enforcement.

Traditional governance systems document policies and risk. OpterAI is designed to control whether AI actions are allowed to proceed in the first place.

Before

Post-incident oversight

  • Compliance validated after execution.
  • Limited visibility into AI reasoning and intent.
  • Fragmented or incomplete decision evidence.
  • Regulatory exposure discovered after damage.
  • Human oversight too slow for machine-speed action.
After

Pre-execution permissioning

  • Decisions blocked when they breach policy or authority.
  • Full decision lineage and operational proof.
  • Continuous audit readiness across AI estates.
  • Human escalation before irreversible action.
  • AI operates within enforceable control boundaries.
Markets we serve

Built for industries where AI decisions carry consequences.

OpterAI is engineered for environments where decisions affect customers, capital, patients, networks, regulation, reputation and legal accountability.

Show 4 industries Hide industries

Insurance & reinsurance

Real-time control for underwriting, claims, pricing, tail-risk assessment and AI-driven risk decisions.

Show reinsurance proof Hide reinsurance proof
Reinsurance proof

Built for the decisions that move capital.

Reinsurance runs on treaty terms, delegated authority and exposure limits. When AI is involved in pricing, capacity allocation, claims and tail-risk assessment, the same rules still apply, and they have to apply at the moment the AI action is about to execute.

Where OpterAI sits in a reinsurance workflow

OpterAI is configured against the connected systems inside the cedent or reinsurer estate: pricing models, underwriting copilots, claims agents, broker-facing assistants and downstream SaaS tools. Together these define the control perimeter. Every governed AI action inside that perimeter is evaluated against the firm’s own treaty, authority and risk rules before it executes.

  • Pre-execution checks on AI-generated pricing, terms and quotes.
  • Authority routing when an AI action would commit capacity above a defined limit.
  • Escalation when a claims or coverage decision touches a sensitive class of business.
  • An evidence record of every approved, blocked and escalated AI decision.
