“The Governor Framework transformed how we handle compliance. What used to take weeks of audit preparation now happens automatically with cryptographic proof.”

— Paulo Li, CEO (Shantu Ltda)

Broken today

Today's governance is reactive, fragmented, and easily bypassed. Controls are bolted on after the fact, making audit a painful evidence-gathering exercise.

Fragmented audit logs

Evidence scattered across systems, databases, and file shares. No single source of truth.

Bypassable controls

Approvals and SOPs exist on paper. Admins can skip steps, change data, or work around systems.

Policy changes require redeploy

Every governance update means code changes, testing cycles, and deployment windows. Too slow for business needs.

Solution: Governor Framework

The Governor Framework is governance-native infrastructure that embeds proof of enforcement directly into your ERP and workflow systems.

Instead of collecting audit evidence after the fact, Governor ensures every action complies with policy and generates cryptographic proof in real time.

Governance Objects (GO) with versioning

Model policies, approvals, and controls as first-class objects with full version history and rollback capabilities.

Policy engine + enforcement hooks

Define policy-as-code rules that execute at runtime. No code changes needed for policy updates.

Immutable event chains / cryptographic audit trail

Every workflow action generates tamper-evident proof. Cryptographic hashing ensures integrity.

Natural language search + agent-assisted investigations

Query audit trails in plain English. AI generates SQL and surfaces relevant evidence automatically.

Risk controls for complex workflows

Multi-step approvals, thresholds, exceptions, and conditional logic—all configurable without code.

Multi-tenant / feature-gated deployment

Deploy across teams and environments with fine-grained access controls and feature flags.

How it works

Four steps from policy definition to cryptographic proof

1

Model governance objects

Define your policies, approval workflows, and controls as structured Governance Objects (GOs) with schemas and relationships.

{
  "type": "ApprovalWorkflow",
  "name": "NCMCodeChange",
  "steps": [
    { "role": "Compliance", "required": true },
    { "role": "Manager", "threshold": 10000 }
  ]
}
2

Define policy-as-code

Write rules in a declarative DSL. Policies are versioned, testable, and deployable independently of application code.

policy NCMChangePolicy {
  when: event.type == "NCM_CODE_CHANGE"
  require: approval.by("Compliance")
  if: amount > 10000
    then: require approval.by("Manager")
}
3

Enforce in workflows at runtime

Governor intercepts workflow events, evaluates policies, and enforces approvals before actions proceed.

workflow.changeNCMCode(code, amount) {
  governor.enforce("NCMChangePolicy", {
    code: code,
    amount: amount
  })
  // Proceeds only if policy passes
}
4

Produce proof + query audit instantly

Every enforcement generates an immutable event in the cryptographic audit chain. Query with natural language or SQL.

SELECT * FROM audit_chain
WHERE event_type = 'NCM_CODE_CHANGE'
  AND timestamp > '2024-01-01'
ORDER BY timestamp DESC

-- Or query in natural language:
-- "Show me all NCM code changes over $10k in Q1"

Example flow

Change NCM code → policy check → approval → event chain updates → proof generated

The entire process is automatic, tamper-evident, and auditable in real time.
