Your AI Agents Are Only as Good as What They Know, What They're Told, and How You Measure Quality

Astervox is the governance middleware that controls what AI can retrieve, locks instructions to approved versions, and preserves point-in-time evidence for audits and incident reconstruction.

The Problem

When Something Goes Wrong, Can You Answer These Questions?

Regulators, auditors, and executives don't ask what your AI knows now. They ask what it knew last Tuesday when it gave the wrong advice.

search

"What sources did the AI retrieve?"

Ghost Knowledge — outdated drafts, deprecated policies, toxic data that humans can see but should never reach customers.

history

"Which prompt version was active?"

Prompts change directly in runtime platforms with no version control, approval gates, or audit trail.

verified_user

"Who approved it and was quality measured?"

Thumbs up/down is not auditable evidence. Without calibrated evaluation, quality claims are indefensible.

The Toxic Data Your AI Treats as Truth

Most organizations have far more operational knowledge than they think — and a large portion is toxic. Outdated pricing, draft policies, deprecated procedures, cached PDFs from years ago remain discoverable.

When AI retrieves this content, it presents it with confidence and authority. It has no way to know whether something is a draft, obsolete, or context-dependent — unless your organization enforces that distinction.

EU AI Act (August 2026)

Mandates record-keeping and human oversight for high-risk systems. Penalties up to 7% of global turnover.

Swiss FINMA Audit (October 2025)

Federal Audit Office identified gaps in "impact monitoring" and "trustworthiness evaluation" of AI systems.

The Solution

Six Core Capabilities for Governable AI

Astervox is governance middleware that sits between your knowledge sources and AI platforms — providing an independent control layer that audits the vendors, not competes with them.

lock

Dual-State Knowledge Control

Separate human visibility from AI authorization. Drafts and archives remain accessible to humans but blocked from AI retrieval until verified.

check_circle Eliminate Ghost Knowledge from AI outputs
history

Temporal Governance

Preserve point-in-time state of all AI-relevant assets. Reconstruct exactly what knowledge and which prompt version produced any output.

check_circle Answer "what did the AI know last Tuesday?"
tune

Strict Invalidation

Content changes automatically create new versions, reset approval status, and force re-evaluation before deployment.

check_circle Changes cannot bypass governance

Calibrated Human Evaluation

Reviewers scored for consistency against version-locked Gold Standards. Evaluator Reliability Index (ERI) ensures defensible quality assessments.

check_circle Measurable, repeatable, audit-ready quality
hub

Platform Normalisation

Single governance policy layer across Cognigy, Salesforce, NICE, Genesys. Enforce rules everywhere, not just where convenient.

check_circle One control plane for all AI agents
sync

Drift Detection & Remediation

Monitor for unauthorized changes to prompts and configurations. Auto-alert on drift, force re-evaluation or auto-revert.

Why Astervox? The Independent Auditor.

Native platform guardrails (Salesforce, Microsoft, NICE) cannot serve as their own auditor. Regulators require segregation of duties. We audit the vendors — we don't compete with them.

Metadata-Only Architecture

Our governance layer scans metadata without ingesting sensitive content. Bypass InfoSec objections that stall competitors requiring full data access.

Cross-Platform Reality

Enterprises run Salesforce for Service, SharePoint for Policy, Cognigy for Bots. Governance fails at the seams. We close the gaps.

Workflow Lock-In

Once Astervox becomes the system of record for AI governance decisions, removing us means losing the audit trail that proves why AI outputs were authorized.
