What this hub helps you do
AIMS scope and inventory
Define which AI systems, teams, providers, deployers, models, data flows, and control responsibilities sit inside the management system.
Risk and impact controls
Connect AI risk assessment, impact assessment, control objectives, human oversight, monitoring, and incident evidence.
Regulation overlap
Use ISO/IEC 42001 to organize governance evidence while separately mapping EU AI Act role, risk, and conformity duties.

Next step

Turn ISO/IEC 42001 guidance into a cited workflow

Route ISO/IEC 42001 implementation into owned tasks, evidence requests, and review checkpoints so standards work does not remain scattered across documents.

What this unlocks
  • Start from the ISO/IEC 42001 page that matches the decision or evidence gap.
  • Open Research Copilot for source-linked interpretation questions.
  • Use a single source of truth to keep evidence, owners, and review history governed in one place.
Recommended route
Open Research Copilot
Answer ISO/IEC 42001 scope and interpretation questions with cited outputs.
Supporting route
Open SSOT
Keep ISO/IEC 42001 evidence, decisions, and control records in one governed system.
