Platform

One platform. One data model.
One source of truth.

Underneath every governance, risk, and compliance capability is a single connected data model — so policies, controls, risks, findings, and remediation steps live in one continuously updated graph. That's what makes everything else actually work.

The Connected Data Model

Most GRC platforms are a collection of modules. ClearGRC is one connected graph.

Every entity in the platform — every policy, control, risk, finding, and remediation step — is a node in the same graph, linked to the others that gave it context. That's why AI can explain a recommendation. That's why reporting can drill down. That's why automation works.

Every Entity. Every Relationship. One Source of Truth.

AI gets context, not just text

An AI recommendation isn't a guess from a chatbot — it sees the connected graph. Every suggestion has the evidence behind it, by design.

Dashboards drill all the way down

Click a number on a board chart, follow it through assessment, control, and finding, and land on the source evidence. No exports, no rebuilds.

Automation knows what's connected

When a control fails an assessment, the right issue is created, the right risk is updated, and the right owner is notified — automatically, because the graph already knew the relationships.

Platform Pillars

The five pillars underneath every module.

Workflow, configurability, security, reporting, and scale — the platform fundamentals that turn modules into an enterprise system.

Workflow & Automation

Repetitive GRC work — review cycles, approvals, escalations — runs itself once configured.

  • Configurable multi-stage workflows
  • Approval chains with unanimous-review option
  • Escalation rules per role
  • SLA tracking & breach alerts
  • Scheduled reviews & reminders
  • Email + SignalR real-time notifications

Configurability

Adapt the platform to how your organisation already works — without writing code.

  • Custom fields per module
  • Custom forms & assessment templates
  • Configurable scoring matrices
  • Business rules & automations
  • Custom taxonomies & categories
  • Organisation hierarchy per tenant

Security & Access Control

Enterprise security baked in — every action accountable, every dataset isolated.

  • Granular 8-flag RBAC per module
  • Azure AD B2C single sign-on
  • Multi-factor authentication
  • Dual-layer immutable audit trail
  • Encryption in transit & at rest
  • Multi-tenant data isolation

Dashboards & Reporting

Reporting reads the same connected graph — so every chart can drill to the source.

  • Executive & operational dashboards
  • KPI & KRI tracking with thresholds
  • Risk heat maps & compliance scorecards
  • Scheduled reports & alerts
  • Drill-down analytics across entities
  • QuestPDF / Excel export anywhere

Built for Enterprise Scale

Designed for the operating shape of large organisations — multi-business-unit, multi-region, high-volume.

  • Multi-tenant Azure-hosted architecture
  • Multi-business-unit & multi-region support
  • Hangfire background-job processing
  • Redis distributed cache
  • High-availability & horizontal scalability
  • License & entitlement management

AI on Connected Data

AI doesn't compete with the data model — it consumes it. Recommendations sit on top of the same graph.

  • Natural language search across entities
  • AI summaries with source references
  • Probable risk identification from findings
  • Contextual recommendations across modules
  • Explainable outputs, reviewable by humans
  • Powered by Azure OpenAI in your tenant
Why Our AI Works

AI is more powerful when it has context. This is that context.

Most "AI in GRC" is a chatbot bolted on top of disconnected modules — answering questions from a single document at a time. ClearGRC's AI reads the entire connected graph: the policy, the controls it maps to, the risks those controls cover, the assessments against those risks, the findings, the issues, the remediation.

That's why a single AI recommendation can link a policy gap to a risk to an audit finding to a remediation task — with the evidence backing every step.

See AI capabilities
When AI has the connected graph, it can…
  • Identify probable risks from assessment findings — with justification
  • Explain why a control passed or failed — not just that it did
  • Surface related policies and controls when one is updated
  • Generate board reports backed by live evidence — not slides
  • Answer natural-language questions across the entire programme
