Runtime governance above control, below intelligence.

A certifiable governance layer for autonomy — vendor-neutral, controller-agnostic, non-invasive. Something companies currently cannot buy off-the-shelf.

  • 01A governance layer for defense primes, tier-1 automotive, aerospace integrators, and industrial automation — one that sits above your existing control stack without replacing any of it.
  • 02Maps directly to ISO 26262 ASIL-D, SOTIF, UNECE WP.29 R155 (cybersecurity) and R156 (software updates), DO-178C, and DO-254. Governance evidence slots into your existing safety case, not alongside it.
  • 03Runtime bounded authority, pre-instability intervention, and cryptographically auditable decisions — every intervention signed to a tamper-evident chain the certifier can read.
  • 04Program-based licensing for assured autonomy. No retraining of your models. No redesign of your autonomy stack. Removal is a configuration change.
  • 05Deploys in the cloud, on-premise, or embedded on-target through a C++17 / QNX variant for safety-critical environments.

The autonomy regulatory surface, by the calendar.

The frameworks below are not hypothetical. Each is a live deadline or an already-active enforcement surface. Countdowns are computed fresh on every page load and tick every thirty seconds client-side.

EU AI Act — High-Risk Autonomy

AI used in road vehicles, aviation, and certain industrial safety-critical systems is classified high-risk under Article 6 — Article 9 risk-management obligations apply.

Aligns automotive and aerospace AI governance with insurance-grade evidence requirements.

Cyber Resilience Act — Phased Application

Products with digital elements — including in-vehicle software, autonomous systems, and embedded controllers — must meet essential cybersecurity requirements and provide vulnerability disclosure.

Brings embedded automotive and industrial autonomy under a unified EU cybersecurity baseline.

EU AI Act — Phase 3 Final Conformity (Article 6 Type-2)

Full conformity obligations for high-risk AI embedded in safety-critical products — including ADAS, ADS, aerospace, and industrial autonomy — take effect after the Article 111 grandfather window closes.

Embedded AI systems shipped before August 2026 lose the legacy carve-out. Evidence-grade governance across the in-service fleet becomes mandatory.

UN Regulation No. 155 — Vehicle Cybersecurity

All new vehicle types sold in EU, Japan, South Korea, and other WP.29 signatories must ship with a certified Cybersecurity Management System and evidence of ongoing risk management.

Vehicles without valid R155 type-approval cannot be sold. Runtime governance evidence fits directly into the CSMS submission.

General Safety Regulation — Phase 2

All new vehicles sold in the EU must include driver-attention monitoring, emergency lane-keeping, intelligent speed assistance, and event data recording.

Actuation-governance evidence is required for each assisted-driving function that can intervene in control.

Standing General Order 2021-01 — ADAS / AV Crash Reporting

Manufacturers and operators of vehicles with SAE Level 2 ADAS or Level 3-5 ADS must report serious crashes to NHTSA within strict reporting windows.

Evidence-grade incident traceability is non-negotiable. Tamper-evident decision logs answer the SGO directly.
