Credo AI governs your AI programme as a portfolio — policies, risk registers, assessments. If what you need is proof of what a specific agent actually did, that is a different job, and this page is the honest comparison.

Scores whether your AI programme is well managed.
Risk registers, policy mapping, self-reported assessments across every model and use case a company runs. Bought by a risk or governance committee that needs a view across the whole portfolio. Credo AI lives here.
Answers: is our AI programme under control?
Proves what one agent did.
Every model call, tool call, decision and approval, written as it happens into a record where a later edit is computable. Bought by whoever has to answer a regulator, an auditor, or a customer's security review. Auditant is this.
Answers: what did it do, and who allowed it?
Most teams that need one eventually need both. Neither replaces the other, and this page is not trying to talk anyone out of a policy tool they already rely on.
Ask these of Credo AI, of us, and of anyone else in the category. The answers sort it faster than a feature list.
Including where Credo AI is the right tool and we are not.
Different, for most of what Credo AI does. It is a genuine alternative for one specific job: if what you actually need is proof of what an agent did, not a risk assessment of your AI programme, Auditant is built for exactly that and Credo AI is not.
Policy and risk-register tooling across an AI portfolio — mapping models and use cases against a framework, tracking assessments, giving a risk committee something to review. That is a real, different job from recording what one agent did on one afternoon.
Yes, and many teams will end up doing exactly that — a portfolio-level policy tool for the risk committee, and a system of record for what actually happened when regulators or customers ask. They answer different questions for different readers.
Usually because a specific incident or audit asked a question their assessment tool cannot answer — what did this agent do, to this customer, on this day — and a policy score was not evidence.
No migration is needed either way. Auditant does not replace a policy register; it starts recording agent actions going forward, independent of whatever governance tooling already tracks your policies.
