VerifyWise

source available / Overall score: 1.6

VerifyWise is a self-hostable AI governance platform for keeping the records an organization needs under frameworks such as the EU AI Act and ISO 42001: an inventory of AI systems, risk assessments, policies, vendor reviews and audit evidence. BlueWave Labs publishes it under the Business Source License and sells an enterprise license for hosting it for others.

Tagged self-attested: the platform organizes the operator's own records.

Adoption

1 low confidence

1.0

GitHub stars are the only signal: VerifyWise ships as a self-hosted application with no package, and the vendor publishes no user count. A star is not a use.

VerifyWise organizes the compliance records an auditor asks for, but they are the operator's own entries in its own format, taken on trust. Compliance Trestle writes to a published standard that outside tools can validate.
