No, AI governance and AI compliance are related but not the same. AI compliance focuses on meeting specific laws, regulations, and industry standards, while AI governance defines the broader policies, ownership, controls, and decision-making processes used throughout the AI lifecycle. A system can technically meet regulatory requirements yet still lack clear accountability, model monitoring, or incident response procedures.
At Lumitech, we integrate compliance requirements into a wider governance framework that covers risk classification, human oversight, audit trails, data controls, and ongoing model performance.
