AppliedAI and McKinsey partner to deliver agentic AI to regulated enterprises
Risk & Compliance

See where AI helps across risk and compliance and where it can't.

Opus builds a live model of how your risk and compliance work really runs: your Digital Twin, built with your teams, not process docs. Then it puts AI to work, with a person on the decisions that matter and a full audit trail behind every one.

Use cases

How risk & compliance teams use Opus

Some examples of the high-volume, repetitive workflows teams hand to Opus, across regulatory change, controls, audit and reporting.

Regulatory change management

TodayNew regulations tracked and interpreted by hand, easy to miss.

OpusMonitors regulatory updates, maps them to your policies and controls, and routes the impact for review.

Controls testing

TodayControl evidence chased and checked manually each cycle.

OpusCollects control evidence, checks it against requirements, and routes gaps for review.

Audit prep

TodayAudit requests met with a scramble across owners and inboxes.

OpusMatches each request to an owner, checks completeness, and compiles an audit-ready pack.

Incident & breach

TodayIncidents triaged and notification obligations worked out by hand.

OpusClassifies each incident, gathers the facts and timeline, and drafts the notification for review.

Third-party risk

TodayVendor risk questionnaires reviewed and scored manually.

OpusScores questionnaires against your thresholds, flags high-risk answers, and compiles risk profiles.

Risk & regulatory reporting

TodayBoard and regulatory packs assembled by hand from scattered data.

OpusPulls the data, flags breaches and anomalies, and drafts a review-ready pack.

The problem

Compliance never stops growing, and neither does the manual work behind it.

Compliance never stands still: new regulations, more controls, endless evidence to gather, audits to pass. Your team is stretched just keeping up. You know AI could take some of the load, but not which parts, what it's worth, or whether it's safe to trust. That's where Opus comes in.

  1. 01 · Digital Twin

    A living model of how your operation actually runs

    A living model of how your risk and compliance work actually runs today: regulatory change, controls, audits, reporting. Because the work runs on Opus, the Digital Twin stays current, so you can see what a change is worth before you make it, and what it adds up to across the function.

  2. 02 · Discover

    How the Digital Twin gets built

    Mapped live with your risk and compliance teams, the people who do the work, not guessed from process docs. In place of months of manual process mapping, you get the real cost of the work today.

  3. 03 · Build, run & optimise

    Most tools just automate your process exactly as it runs today

    Opus redesigns it for AI first, then runs the better version, so you're improving the work, not just speeding up a flawed one. A person stays on the decisions that matter, with a full audit trail behind every one, and it keeps learning after go-live.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Is our data secure and compliant?

Built for sensitive risk and compliance data, deployable in your own cloud, private cloud, or on-prem, with every action logged and auditable.

Does Opus replace our GRC or risk systems?

No. Opus is an operating layer on top of your existing stack — your GRC platform, risk register, reporting tools and the rest — designed to integrate, not replace.

Can we defend an AI-assisted decision to a regulator or auditor?

Yes. Every step is logged and time-stamped with the evidence and rationale behind it, so you can show exactly how each conclusion was reached — with a person on the decisions that matter.

Are we locked into one AI model?

No. Opus is model-agnostic — use any model, or several.

Will it disrupt live operations?

No. Start with one workflow, run it in parallel with a person in the loop, and scale once it's proven.

Who stays accountable for risk and compliance decisions?

You do. Opus routes exceptions and recommendations to your team and logs every step, so the risk and compliance calls stay with your people.
