15-day free trial

Try it on your own organization

Fifteen days with all four modules open: AI Governance — the AI tools your team uses, the policies staff sign, and the board report; Enterprise Risk — the risks you’re watching, scored plainly; IT — devices, software, systems, and who has access; Data Management — what you hold, where it flows, and how long you keep it. Privacy — what you owe the people your data is about — is open too: the Privacy Program and privacy impact assessments. The Privacy Policy generator unlocks when you subscribe. No credit card, and nothing to cancel: on day 15 your workspace goes read-only until you pick a plan, and nothing is deleted.

First, the plain-English version

What you’re actually trying

GOVERNBOX is one place that keeps track of how your organization uses AI — and, if you want, your wider risks, technology, data, and privacy duties too. It holds the list of AI tools your team uses (each with a named owner), the policies your staff actually sign, the risks you’re watching, and the report your board reads each quarter.

Every policy it writes cites a real control from an expert-written library — nothing is invented — and nothing counts until you’ve reviewed and approved it. During the trial the policy generators stay in preview — creating and approving policies unlocks with a paid plan — but everything else is the real system on your own organization, not a demo with fake data: your tools, your risks, your board report.

Five Clocks, One Record
Why this, why now

Why organizations need this now

Your team is already using AI

ChatGPT and tools like it are already inside your organization, whether or not anyone approved them. The first question boards, funders, and insurers ask is “who’s keeping track?” — and for most organizations the honest answer today is nobody.

The rules now have dates

State AI laws in Colorado and California take effect January 1, 2027, Texas is already live, and the EU’s AI Act is in force. GOVERNBOX covers those individually — alongside U.S. federal law, the UK, Canada and 26 countries in total — so you pick the ones you operate under. They expect plain-language notice, human review, and records — things you can’t produce the week someone asks for them.

Proof beats promises

When a funder’s questionnaire or a board member asks “who owns this tool, what data does it touch, and what happens when it fails,” you open a page instead of scheduling a meeting.

Why now

Four people are about to ask you the same question

Not eventually — on a schedule someone else set. Here is who asks, what they ask, and the five things you need to be able to answer.

Your board

“What's our AI policy?”

Usually followed, one meeting later, by “and how do we know it's working?” The second question is the hard one.

Funders and members

“How are you handling AI?”

Increasingly a line item in grant applications and renewal packets. A live trust page answers it without a scramble.

Customers and insurers

“Complete this AI questionnaire.”

Security reviews now carry AI sections. The answers come straight out of your inventory and crosswalk.

Regulators

“Show your assessment.”

State and international AI rules are arriving on a schedule. Where they apply, they ask for records you either have or don't.

The job, in five questions — strip the frameworks away and nothing else is left
  1. What AI are we using?

    Every tool, who owns it, and what data goes into it. Most organizations cannot answer this on the day they're asked.

  2. What are people allowed to do with it?

    A written policy and a practical standard, both short enough that staff will actually read them.

  3. What could go wrong, and who's watching?

    A named owner per risk, a sense of how likely and how bad, and a date you'll look again.

  4. Does everyone know the rules?

    Training, then a dated signature per person. Unsigned staff are the gap auditors find first.

  5. Can you prove all of the above?

    Dated records, a report each quarter, and a page you can send to anyone who asks. This is the part a template can't do.

What we’re not claiming

That you're already breaking the law

Most of these rules are new, and plenty may not apply to you. We'll tell you which ones do.

That software makes you compliant

It doesn't. It gives you a defensible starting point and the records to back it up. You review and approve everything.

That it's finished in one afternoon

The first package takes about an hour. Running the program is a rhythm, not an event, and that's the point.

This is the short version. Read the full 2026 executive briefing — the deadlines, the numbers and every primary source, last verified by a human on July 29, 2026.

Law coverage

The laws, everywhere you operate

AI law stopped being one deadline in one state. GOVERNBOX cites specific statutes from 27 U.S. states, covers 43 state AI laws across 38 states with dedicated frameworks and crosswalks, and reaches U.S. federal law, the EU, Italy, the UK, Switzerland and Norway, Canada, the standards bodies and 26 countries in total — as selectable frameworks, not as a blog post. Pick the ones you operate under and every policy, crosswalk and gap report is generated and checked against exactly those.

27
U.S. states with statutes cited

38 states go further, with 43 state AI-law frameworks of their own — own controls, own crosswalk report. New states are added as they pass.

26
countries covered

National AI law and guidance, plus the EU as a bloc and the international instruments.

89
frameworks, laws & standards

Selectable per organization — your documents are generated and checked against the ones you pick.

500+
controls in the library

Expert-written, versioned, and cited by ID in every clause we generate. Nothing is invented.

U.S. state AI law coverage

The library cites specific statutes from 27 states in its state law landscape controls, and 38 states have 43 AI-law frameworks of their own, each with its own controls and crosswalk report. The rest are reached through the U.S. state law landscape framework, which tracks disclosure, chatbot, biometric, deepfake, health, insurance and employment-AI statutes as they pass — so a new law does not mean a new setting for you.

A realistic fifteen days

What most people get done

Day 1

The first hour

Your organization profile, your readiness score, and a preview of the AI use policy you'd approve on a paid plan — the generators themselves stay locked during the trial.

Days 2–7

The list and the risks

Add the AI tools your team uses, assign owners, and score the handful of risks that matter. This is the part boards ask about.

Days 8–15

Something to show

Generate the board report and see your maturity score with your own data in it — the thing you walk into the next board meeting holding.

Scorecard, trial, or plan — which is which

Free scorecard

Five minutes, no sign-up: your maturity score, your gaps ranked, and a NIST AI RMF preview.

Before you request it

What happens to my work if I don't subscribe?

It stays in your account. If you subscribe later, you pick up where you left off rather than starting again.

What happens on day 15?

Your workspace goes read-only until you pick a plan. There is no card on file, nothing to cancel, and nothing is deleted.

Do I need someone technical?

No. The questions are about your organization, not about models or code.

Can I invite a colleague?

Yes. Seats depend on the plan you choose afterwards, and staff signatures are unlimited on paid plans.

Can I generate policies during the trial?

No — every policy and document generator is visible in preview, but creating and approving policies unlocks with a paid plan, along with the framework crosswalks and staff attestations. Everything you do build during the trial carries over.
