STEADED | CONTROL

Compliance as live, enforced controls; the audit chain and its integrity checks; two-key approval for irreversible actions.

• Compliance programAdopt SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / GDPR starter packs, test each control, and auto-raise a tracked finding when one fails — an auditor-ready report, always current.
• Regulation that runs Patent pendingChange one regulation and every procedure it touches gets routed a to-do naming its exact gap — and the one task that would close it — the same day, automatically.
• Living compliance coverage proof Patent pendingEach procedure carries a coverage proof citing the exact task that satisfies each rule, sealed with a hash — not a checklist someone filled in once.
• Assurance & Integrity Bond Patent pendingOne downloadable certificate an outsider can check offline, proving compliance, dual-approval and the audit chain are intact right now.
• Tamper-evident audit chainEvery action hash-links to the one before it; the fingerprint of the whole history can be anchored to an outside record so even Steaded can't secretly rewrite the past.
• Two-key approval gate Patent pendingAny irreversible action — a payment, a filing, a deletion — waits for a simulated "can we undo this" check and a second, independent co-signer.
• Org Time Machine Patent pendingChange one fact on a real past case and replay the actual decision logic to see exactly what would have flipped.
• Self-proving procedures Patent pendingDetects process drift, drafts the fix, and proves — against your own real history — that it actually helps, before anyone approves it.
• Counterfactual Dispute Packet Patent pendingWhen someone disputes a decision, hand them one packet that already proves whether their alternative facts would have changed anything.
• Agent Flight RecorderEvery AI agent's actions roll up into a risk score an insurer can price from, reproducible against the exact audit-chain hashes.
• Erasure & epistemic erasure certificates Patent pendingDelete a fact and get a certificate proving every AI decision, cache and model that touched it has been closed off too — not just the database row.
• Proof Exchange Patent pendingTrust another org's KYC check without ever holding their customer's data — verify the proof, not the file, and revoke it the moment you need to.
• External auditor portal Patent pendingGive your auditor a link, not a project plan — they query their own scope and verify our certificates without ever asking us to prove it.
• Per-viewer redaction boundary Patent pendingScreen-share a record with a client and they only ever see what their own account is entitled to — the restricted values never leave your device.
• Public status pageA friendly, redacted "where's my request" page, reachable with no login and zero internal exposure.
• Extension contracts & domain registryEvery extensible part of the platform — an AI capability, a procedure, a role, a data source — carries an explicit owner, version and reversibility contract, checkable against live data, not a promise.
• Change impact detectorA governed change is scanned against every real in-flight case before you trust it, ranked by risk, not left to whoever happens to notice.

STEADED | DATA

Sources and connections through one audited ingress gate with quarantine; lineage and provenance for every record.

• Data sources & connectionsPipe a warehouse table or database query into a record type; a real live handshake for database connections, honestly labeled sandbox for the rest.
• Ingress gate Patent pendingEvery incoming datum passes one mandatory chokepoint — classified, deduplicated, quality-checked, lineage-stamped — and quarantined, not silently admitted, if it fails.
• Quarantine & AI remediationFailed records never enter the record; the AI turns exactly what failed into fix-it steps and routes them to the source owner.
• Lineage & provenanceSee both ends of a record's life: where it entered, and every purpose-bound read that ever consumed it downstream.
• Data egress controlsEvery outward read is bound to a declared purpose, and each field is redacted, tokenized, generalized or cleared per a real purpose×field policy — never one blanket mask.
• Data products marketplacePublish a saved query as a discoverable, quality-scored data product; consumers request access, which is routed and audited, not just granted.
• Data workspace & federated queryOne catalog spans every internal collection and every connected source; run real SQL across all of it without moving data anywhere.
• AI-led source onboardingPoint the AI at a sample of a new source; it infers the schema, profiles quality, and proposes a field mapping for a human to approve — nothing provisions itself.
• Batch writesUpdate thousands of records as one governed unit, with per-record idempotency and one-click reversal of the whole batch if something's wrong.
• Data exchangeOne consistent CSV export/import path across every domain, hardened against formula-injection before it ever reaches a spreadsheet.
• Domain registryA live registry of every governed data store — owner, write policy, record count — foundational domains locked, configurable ones are what you extend.
• Data-residency-aware AI routingWhen a business unit requires in-region processing, an AI call can only resolve to an approved in-region model — never silently downgraded.

STEADED | ORGANIZATION

Org chart, roles and two-axis access; access reviews; reorg studio to simulate a restructure before you live it.

• Two-axis access modelA person needs both the right to act and the right to see a record — checked independently, default-deny on both axes.
• Plain-language access rulesBuild a visibility rule in plain English ("see events where they're a stakeholder") and preview exactly how many real records it would expose before you save it.
• Org chart, teams & positionsSeats carry responsibilities, distinct from who currently holds them; a seat can be vacant and still show who's accountable.
• Key-person / bus-factor risk radar Patent pendingSee every single point of failure in your company before it becomes one — and know exactly who to cross-train next.
• Reorg Studio Patent pendingReorg Studio doesn't just move boxes on a chart — it tells you, person by person, exactly who gains or loses access before you click Apply.
• Scenario / what-if impact planner Patent pendingModel the layoff, the move, the leave of absence — and see which single points of failure it creates before you commit to it.
• Org timelinePick any past moment and see the org exactly as it stood — no hand-maintained snapshots.
• Delegation of bounded authorityHand off a scoped, dollar-capped, time-bound slice of your authority — it is structurally impossible to approve past the ceiling.
• Separation of dutiesName two roles no one may hold at once — payment-creator and payment-approver, say — assignment is blocked, and existing conflicts are surfaced.
• Access reviews & recertificationPeriodically confirm or revoke every person's roles in one campaign, sealed as an immutable attestation.
• Identity & SSORegister an OIDC/SAML provider, enforce it per email domain, and turn on SCIM auto-provisioning — the secret is stored by reference only, never the value.
• Two-factor authenticationAny user can protect their own sign-in with an authenticator app.
• Load-aware org healthReads which teams are overloaded vs. carrying slack, computed live from real open work — never hand-maintained.
• Worker lifecycleSuspend, offboard or reactivate a worker in one governed action — access is denied everywhere immediately, with a reason on the record.

STEADED | SETTINGS

Packs, terminology, navigation — the platform bends to your language and your structure, governed like everything else.

• Ground Studio Patent pendingCompose a new governed view of your data with no code; every authored view still only ever shows a viewer what they're already allowed to see.
• Configurable record typesDesign a record type's fields and page layout once; every record of that type renders it exactly, from one canonical field dictionary app-wide.
• Starter packs & marketplaceInstall a versioned bundle of procedures, regulations, connections and roles as one governed, audited action — uninstall cleanly removes exactly what was installed.
• AI-led data framework designFeed the AI a handful of candidate sources; it finds the same entity under different names, flags the most authoritative copy, and proposes a consolidated domain design for review.
• Fail-closed storage kernel Patent pendingAdd a new table and forget to scope it — nothing leaks. Unclassified data is invisible by construction, not by discipline.
• Nav & terminology editorReorder, relabel and permission-gate any surface — every edit is itself an audited config change.
• Reversible sample-data loaderLoad a full, coherent demo dataset in one click, tagged and fully removable later — it never touches real records or the audit chain.
• Webhooks & Platform APIRegister and verify outbound webhooks and API tokens server-side, with real delivery logs — the secret never rides in the workspace snapshot.
