WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Govern production AI as one operating system.

The paper explains the control plane decisions that sit between an AI pilot and a production system: who can act, which tools can be used, what must be reviewed, and how every decision is traced.

CONTROL

Govern before development scales

Put identity, policy, approval, and data boundaries around AI work before agents reach sensitive tools and systems.

OPERATION

See every model, tool, and agent

Create a shared view of model access, agent activity, cost, traces, incidents, and human checkpoints.

SCALE

Move from one workflow to many

Reuse controls and approved building blocks while adapting the control plane to each customer environment.

INSIDE THE PAPER

A practical architecture, not a category pitch.

See how the control plane connects enterprise identity, model gateways, approved
tools, agent guardrails, human decisions, and operational evidence.

WHO SHOULD READ IT

For leaders responsible for AI in
production.

Use the paper to align technology, security, governance, and delivery teams around one
practical operating model.

01

CIO, CTO, and CDO

Define how AI moves from approved experimentation into governed production

02

AI and platform engineering leaders

Standardize models, tools, agents, observability, and deployment controls

03

Security, risk, and governance teams

Make policy, approvals, evidence, and accountability part of the runtime.

What is an AI Control Plane?
An AI Control Plane is the operating layer used to govern models, tools, agents, identity, policy,
approvals, observability, cost, and audit evidence across production AI workflows.
How does AICP relate to the customer's control plane?
AICP is the reusable engine moring uses to assemble a customer-specific AI Control Plane. The final
implementation is shaped around the customer's workflows, environment, controls, and operating
model.
