Governance for your
AI ingestion pipeline

ContextShield inspects every document before it reaches your vector store. No rip-and-replace — just plug in, apply security and compliance logic, and generate the regulatory evidence European organisations need.

Inspect. Govern. Evidence.

ContextShield sits between your document extraction and your vector store, applying governance at every stage — without changing how you build RAG systems.

01

Document Extraction

Your existing pipeline extracts documents as usual. Nothing changes upstream.

02

Document-Level Governance

ContextShield evaluates the complete document — verifying rights, enforcing security policies, and flagging risks before processing continues.

03

Chunk-Level Governance

Every chunk is assessed for compliance and tagged with governance metadata — catching risks that only appear at granular level.

04

Vector Store

Only approved, audited content enters your vector store — with a full compliance trail.

Four layers of governance

Each layer deepens compliance coverage and builds on the previous one — from source clearance through to regulator-ready output.

1

Source Rights Clearance

Determine what you are allowed to ingest. Verify your right to use each data source for AI purposes before any content enters your pipeline.

2

Security Gate

Control what enters the AI. Apply security policies, detect sensitive data, and enforce classification rules before content is indexed.

3

Governance Record

Track what is indexed and why. Maintain a complete, auditable record of every decision made during ingestion — from approval to rejection.

4

Compliance Output

Generate proof for regulators. Produce the documentation and evidence European organisations need to demonstrate AI Act and GDPR compliance.

Built for how teams actually work

No rip-and-replace

Plugs into your existing RAG pipeline. Keep your document loaders, chunking strategy, and vector store.

Europe-first compliance

Designed from day one around the EU AI Act, GDPR, and the regulatory frameworks European organisations face.

Multi-level inspection

Governance at both document and chunk level — because compliance risks live at different granularities.

Audit-ready evidence

Every decision is recorded. When regulators ask, you have the complete trail from source to vector store.
