Pillar 04 — AI Governance

AI Governance Software for RIAs and Broker-Dealers

Govern the AI your firm already runs on. AI is already in your firm, in note-takers, copilots and research tools. SurgeONE brings that use into one AI governance system you can monitor, document and defend the moment a regulator asks. Powered by Avery AI.

What it looks like

AI governance tools that see AI use the moment it happens.

SurgeONE detects AI workloads on every endpoint — copilots, chatbots, transcribers — and evaluates each against your AI policy in real time. Governed use passes. Risky use is flagged or blocked, with a full audit trail either way.

The modules

Three AI governance modules.

Buy any module on its own or run the whole pillar. Every AI answer, alert and decision lands in the same audit trail.

MODULE 01 · CO-PILOT

Regulatory AI Co-pilot

Ask compliance questions and get answers grounded in your firm's own policies, never generic guidance. Every response traces to a source, and ambiguous questions route automatically to the right reviewer.

Answers grounded in your policies
Every response traces to a source
Auto-routing to the right reviewer
Decisions captured for the record

Who it's for: Advisors and staff who need fast, defensible compliance answers.

MODULE 02 · MONITORING

AI Use Monitoring & Compliance

See how AI is being used across the firm, evaluate each use against policy and build the documentation that proves supervision actually happened: the operational AI governance model regulators now expect.

Firm-wide AI use visibility
Policy evaluation on each action
Documented supervision
Defensible records on demand

Who it's for: Firms that have written AI policies but haven't operationalized supervision.

MODULE 03 · REPORTING

AI Risk Reporting & Audit Trail

Every alert, recommendation, and risk score traces back to logic and policy. When an examiner asks why, the answer is already there — explainable, time-stamped, and exam-ready.

Traceable alerts and risk scores
Logic and policy behind every output
Time-stamped audit trail
One-click exam-ready export

Who it's for: CCOs who need to defend AI-assisted decisions to regulators.

In practice

How RIAs and broker-dealers use SurgeONE AI governance

AI policy

You wrote an AI policy. Now what?

  1. Monitor where AI is actually used firm-wide.
  2. Evaluate each use against the policy.
  3. Document supervision automatically.
→  A policy that's operationalized, not just written.
Exam question

An SEC or FINRA examiner asks about your AI

  1. Show firm-wide AI use and controls.
  2. Every AI-assisted decision traces to a rule.
  3. Supervision is documented end-to-end.
→  AI use becomes exam evidence, not exam risk.
Advisor question

An advisor needs an answer fast

  1. Co-pilot answers from your firm's policies.
  2. Response cites the exact source.
  3. Ambiguity routes to a principal.
→  Fast answers that are actually defensible.
