What this is
9 MCP servers expose 254 tools that connect Claude directly to your compliance database — risks, controls, policies, incidents, audits, evidence, ITSM, and organisation governance.
Every AI mutation is proposed, not executed. A human reviews and approves each action before it touches the database. This holds for interactive chat, scheduled runs, and autonomous workflows.

Web App Built-in chat UI with streaming, council, scheduled workflows You pay per token 8.1/10
MCP Proxy Claude Desktop connects remotely via API key — one endpoint, all 254 tools $0 8.9/10

The MCP Proxy is the recommended mode for teams. Each user brings their own Claude subscription. You provide the tools and the security layer. Connection modes compared →
GRC modules
Module What it covers
Risk Management Risk register, scenarios, KRIs, tolerance statements, treatment plans
Controls Control library, assessments, Statement of Applicability, gap analysis
Policies Document lifecycle, version control, change requests, reviews, exceptions
Incidents Tracking, classification, response workflows, lessons learned
Audits Internal audit planning, nonconformity tracking, corrective actions
Evidence Collection, file storage, linking to controls, risks, and incidents
ITSM IT asset register, change management, capacity planning
Organisation Structure, departments, locations, committees, key personnel

AI Agents Council
Complex questions convene 6 specialist agents:
Agent Domain
Risk Analyst Risk register, scenarios, KRIs, tolerance, treatments
Controls Auditor Control effectiveness, SOA, assessments, gap analysis
Compliance Officer Policies, frameworks (ISO 27001, DORA, NIS2), governance
Incident Commander Incident patterns, response metrics, lessons learned
Evidence Auditor Evidence coverage, audit readiness, nonconformities
CISO Strategist Cross-domain synthesis — produces the final report
Each member queries the database independently, then the CISO synthesises. All reasoning is preserved for audit. Benchmarks →
Security
Every AI mutation goes through human approval. No exceptions, no auto-approve, not even for scheduled runs.
The 8-point agent security audit covers:
-
Identity & Authorization — per-user API keys with per-tool permission scoping
-
Memory — 90-day TTL, injection scanning, org-scoped recall
-
Tool Trust — 254 first-party tools, Zod-validated, no third-party MCP servers
-
Blast Radius — zero HTTP outbound, rate limiting, scoped API keys
-
Human Checkpoints — tiered severity (low/medium/high/critical) on all mutations
-
Output Validation — credential scanning, PII redaction, grounding guard
-
Cost Controls — token budgets, turn caps, council rate limits
-
Observability — tool call logging, behavioral anomaly detection, source tracking
Demo data
First deploy auto-seeds ClearStream Payments Ltd — a fictional European fintech regulated under DORA and NIS2: 15 risks, 30 scenarios, 40 controls, 12 policies, 8 incidents, 20 assets, 5 nonconformities, 20 evidence records, and 6 months of trend data.
