About the Foundation
Built on the belief that AI safety is a public good.
Who is Kriv AI Foundation, and what does it do?
Kriv AI Foundation Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit strengthening communities through responsible AI governance, providing free resources, independent research, and community programs for organizations in regulated industries.
The problem
AI is affecting communities faster than it can be governed.
Organizations serving communities in financial services, government, and other regulated industries are adopting AI for high-stakes decisions, from loan approvals to benefits administration to automated assessments, without safeguards to ensure these systems are safe, fair, and compliant.
This isn't a technology problem. It's a safety gap. The AI exists. The regulations are coming. What's missing are the practical resources, the guides, policies, and expertise, to protect the people these organizations serve.
No standard governance frameworks
The NIST AI RMF exists in theory, but most organizations lack a practical adoption guide for their industry.
A fragmented regulatory landscape
EU AI Act, state-level bills, SOX, GDPR, and emerging AI regulations are multiplying faster than organizations can track them.
Governance expertise doesn't exist at scale
AI governance sits at the intersection of legal, ethical, and organizational domains. The talent pool barely exists.
How we bridge the gap
Research. Education. Resources.
Research
Independent, data-driven studies on AI governance across regulated industries, freely published.
Education
Free certification, webinars, and training that build governance expertise for organizations of any size.
Community resources
The HAIG Toolkit: ready-to-use governance guides, policy templates, and checklists, free and openly shared.
