AIUC-1, independent AI agent certification.
The new certification for production AI agents. We're early partners and can help you ship AIUC-1 attestation.
The plain-English version.
AIUC-1 is an independent certification standard for production AI agents, covering safety, controllability, traceability, and risk management. It's the AI equivalent of SOC 2.
- Pre-certification readiness
- Agent risk register
- AIUC-licensed assessors
Three lanes, readiness, implementation, audit support.
Readiness
Gap assessment against AIUC-1. Concrete plan with owners, dates, and effort.
Implementation
Policies, controls, evidence pipelines built into Vanta. AI drafts, experts review.
Audit support
We sit beside you in audit interviews and respond to evidence requests.
From kickoff to certification.
Kickoff
Slack channel live. Scope, stakeholders, baseline.
Readiness
Gaps closed, policies signed, evidence flowing.
Audit prep
Mock audit, control narratives, auditor selection.
Audit
External audit closed. Letter or report in hand.
“The Trust Architects ran our AIUC-1 program end to end. We touched it for sign-off and stakeholder review. Everything else was on rails.”
AIUC-1 questions we hear weekly.
How long does AIUC-1 take?
Most customers complete a first audit in 60-90 days from kickoff. Larger programs run 4-6 months.
What does it cost?
Our retainer plus the external auditor's fee. We size it to your stage on the first call.
Do we need new tooling?
Vanta is our default. We can also work on Drata or Secureframe. No tooling change required if you're already on a platform.
Who runs the audit?
An independent AIUC-qualified auditor. We have preferred firms in Brazil, the US, and Europe.
Will this stand up to enterprise scrutiny?
Yes. We design programs that pass not only the audit but also the buyer's security team review afterward.
From kickoff to audit, in four moves.
Use-case scoping
Kickoff, scope, baseline read.
Evidence collection
First artifacts shipped, evidence pipeline running.
External attestation
Internal audit, remediation closed, audit prep complete.
Renewal & monitoring
Audit run, defended, and certified. Operate phase begins.
