AI-SPM vs AI Governance Platform
AI Governance Platform is top-down policy + risk register for AI use. AI-SPM is the broader programme that adds asset discovery, adversarial testing, runtime gateway controls, and control-ID compliance evidence.

Problem
What AI-SPM vs AI Governance Platform really means
AI Governance Platform covers a slice of AI risk. The gap is the rest of the AI control surface: governs the paperwork layer but does not perform adversarial testing, does not run a runtime gateway, does not auto-discover AI assets.
How Penaxtra approaches it
How Penaxtra closes the gap
AI-SPM is purpose-built for the full AI control surface: 11 AI asset kinds today, three-judge adversarial testing, self-hosted runtime gateway, and six-framework compliance evidence. Most customers run AI-SPM alongside AI Governance Platform rather than replacing it.
