Built for regulated operations from day one, so internal audit and regulators get a narrative, not a spreadsheet reconstruction. [Book a governance review](/book-a-demo) [See our security controls](/security) verified 100% of runs captured with immutable audit how\_to\_reg 4-eyes maker-checker enforced in workflow key SSO RBAC mapped to your identity groups download 1-click evidence packs for internal audit Governance pillars ## Six controls that make audits a formality Every workflow ships with the controls your risk, audit and regulator conversations depend on - no bolt-ons, no spreadsheets. 01 receipt\_long ### Tamper-evident audit trail Inputs, outputs, model versions, approver identity and the exact policy in force at run-time - all captured immutably. 02 how\_to\_reg ### Approvals & four-eyes Maker-checker, four-eyes and delegated approvals per step. Nothing progresses without the right signatures, respecting team boundaries and time-off. 03 admin\_panel\_settings ### Role-based access Fine-grained RBAC across workflows, data, integrations and AI models - mapped to your SSO groups. Least-privilege by default; every access decision logged. 04 history ### Versioned policy & workflows Every workflow, policy and model prompt is versioned. Diff any two runs; replay any historic decision under the policy that was live at the time. 05 account\_tree ### Data & model lineage Trace every AI output back to its inputs, sources, model version and prompt. Explainability that survives the audit conversation. 06 description ### Evidence packs One-click exports: run history, approval chains, policy diffs, model cards and lineage. Delivered as PDF, CSV or via API into your GRC tooling. The audit pack ## What your auditor gets, in one export No more reconstruction from Slack threads and inbox archaeology. Every question a regulator or internal audit team asks maps to a section of the export. [See a sample pack](/book-a-demo) - check\_circle Full run history Every step, timestamp, actor and system involved. - check\_circle Approval chains Who approved, when, under which policy, on what evidence. - check\_circle Policy diffs Point-in-time view of the rules and prompts in force per run. - check\_circle Model & prompt cards Which model, which version, which prompt, which guardrails. - check\_circle Data lineage Source system, transformation, downstream consumer per field. format\_quote > "The audit trail replaced a six-week reconstruction with a fifteen-minute export. Our regulator walked away satisfied on the first meeting." Head of Operational Risk, European wealth manager bolt Example · AI-driven capital call ### See it in the audit trail Human-in-the-loop isn't a policy statement - it's a log. Here's what one capital call notice actually looks like on Next Matter, from AI draft to human sign-off. 09:14:02 smart\_toy AI Agent (extraction, GPT-4.1) Reads LPA and commitment schedule, calculates drawdown amount per LP 09:14:05 edit\_note AI Agent (drafting) Generates capital call notice from template, populates amount, due date and wire instructions 09:14:05 settings System Notice routed to Fund Controller for review - status: **Pending approval** 09:16:40 person Fund Controller (human) Reviews AI-generated notice against source LPA, edits due date, approves - **maker-checker step 1 of 2** 09:22:18 how\_to\_reg GP / Authorised Signatory (human) Second sign-off - **maker-checker step 2 of 2** 09:22:19 lock System Notice issued to LP via investor portal; ledger updated; every action above written to the immutable audit log with actor identity, model version and inputs used Nothing here is reconstructed after the fact. If a regulator or auditor asks who approved this drawdown and what the AI saw before it drafted the notice, the answer is a fifteen-second export, not a war room.
