You already have the policy. Here's how to find what it needs to govern.

You already have the policy. Here's how to find what it needs to govern.

Two weeks ago you downloaded the AuditSentinel AI governance policy builder. You've got the framework. But a policy without discovery is like a security camera pointed at the wrong building.

The tool you haven't used yet is the one that makes the policy enforceable: AuditSentinel's shadow AI discovery engine.

It scans your organisation's SaaS spend — corporate cards, expense reports, SSO logs — and surfaces every AI tool your teams are paying for but nobody in IT or finance authorised. ChatGPT Team seats, Claude Pro subscriptions, Midjourney accounts, Notion AI add-ons — all of it.

Gartner projects that organisations without centralised SaaS visibility will overspend by at least 25% through 2027. Most of that waste sits in AI tools adopted during the 2023-2025 generative AI boom, renewing silently on auto-pay.

The policy builder was step one. The discovery scan is step two.

You can run your first scan at auditsentinel.app.
