What is ISO 42001?

ISO 42001 is the first globally recognized standard for AI Management Systems (AIMS). It requires organizations to establish a formal, auditable framework governing how AI is developed, deployed, monitored, and continuously improved. Certification means Rygen's entire AI governance infrastructure has been independently validated against that standard — not just policies on paper, but the operational processes behind every AI system we build.

‍

Is Rygen ISO 42001 certified?

Yes. Rygen Technologies has achieved the ISO 42001 certification, independently verified by DEKRA. Every AI system we build is governed by a process that meets this standard.

‍

What does this certification actually cover?

It covers the full lifecycle of every AI system Rygen develops and deploys. That includes how we assess risk before building, how we monitor performance after deployment, how we respond to incidents, and how we continuously improve. It is not limited to a single product or feature. It governs the entire AI program.

‍

Does this mean every AI feature Rygen ships is guaranteed to be perfect?

The ISO 42001 does not mean that all features are perfect, it means that the processes governing how we design, develop, release, and manage AI systems meet the world's highest standards for responsible AI management. Our approach to risk assessment, governance, and oversight is verified to ensure responsible and safe AI deployment across Rygen. So while the deployed systems and features aren’t guaranteed to be perfect, the processes they’re governed by try to ensure that they’re as close to that as possible.

‍

How does this affect the AI features in Corsair andX1?

Every AI feature in Corsair TMS and X1 Integration Platform is governed under this certified framework. That means the AI tools running your freight and integration operations have undergone a formal risk and impact assessment, are monitored against measurable performance targets, and are subject to a structured incident response if something goes wrong.

‍

What performance standards does Rygen hold its AI systems to?

Production AI systems are held to a minimum accuracy threshold of 90%. The platform maintains an SLA of 99% availability. Those are real numbers we are accountable to, not aspirational language.

‍

Where can I see your AI governance documentation?

Rygen's AIMS Handbook is publicly available at ai.rygen.com. It covers our governance structure, risk assessment process, performance standards, and the operation of our AI Governance Committee. It is updated as the program evolves.

‍

Who leads AI governance at Rygen?

Rygen's CTO serves as executive sponsor of the AI governance program. Our Principal AI Engineer is accountable for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving the AIMS. A dedicated AI Governance Committee meets regularly to review AI systems, risks, and incidents across the organization.

‍

Is this the same as SOC 2?

No. SOC 2 governs how an organization handles data security, availability, and confidentiality. ISO 42001 governs how an organization builds, deploys, and manages AI systems. They address different risks. Rygen holds both certifications.

‍

Why does this matter for my procurement or legal team?

ISO 42001 certification reduces vendor risk. It means the AI embedded in your supply chain tools is backed by independently verified governance, not just a vendor's assurance.

‍

Why did Rygen pursue this certification?

Rygen pursued this certification because it is the correct way to build and deploy AI. Supply chain and logistics operations run on trust. When AI is embedded in freight execution, EDI integrations, and partner connectivity, the people running those operations deserve to know exactly how that AI is governed. ISO 42001 gives them a verified answer.
