The ROI of AI Governance
Security is often seen as a blocker. In the age of AI, governance is the accelerator that allows you to deploy faster and safer.
The Cost of Inaction
The "do nothing" approach is expensive.
- Data Leaks: Samsung engineers leaked source code to ChatGPT. The cost? Intellectual property compromise.
- Regulatory Fines: The EU AI Act imposes fines up to 7% of global turnover.
- Reputational Damage: An AI chatbot promising a discount that the company doesn't offer (Air Canada case) leads to lawsuits and bad PR.
Governance as an Enabler
When you have a "Guardrails" platform like Railguard, you can unblock the business.
Faster Time-to-Market
Instead of a 6-month manual legal review for every prompt, you can deploy instantly with automated compliance checks.
Reduced Audit Costs
Automated evidence collection for SOC 2 and ISO 42001 saves hundreds of hours of manual evidence gathering.
Calculating the ROI
ROI = (Risk Avoidance + Operational Efficiency) / Cost of Governance Tool
For a typical enterprise, the risk avoidance alone (preventing a single data breach) yields an ROI of over 1000%.
