Artefact expands partnership with OneTrust to accelerate enterprise AI governance and privacy programs. Combination of Artefact's AI implementation expertise and OneTrust's market-leading AI-Ready Governance PlatformTM expands the companies' partnership. Sept. 15, 2026 Press Contacts Dalyce Semko 4038693259 NEW YORK - Artefact, the AI-native company that fuses engineering-grade delivery and consulting-level thinking for proven high-impact results, announced their expanded partnership with OneTrust, into North America. The alliance brings together OneTrust's industry-defining AI-Ready Governance Platform(TM) with Artefact's frontier AI deployment expertise and purpose-built AI Risk & Data Trust practice, creating a combined capability set built to support organizations managing the regulatory and operational demands now facing enterprise AI programs. The expanded partnership builds on a successful collaboration in Europe, and extends joint go-to-market activities, implementation services, and client enablement to organizations across the United States and Canada. It arrives at a pivotal moment: the convergence of state-level AI mandates, including California's Automated Decision-Making Technology regulations, the Colorado AI Act, the NAIC Model Bulletin on AI governance for insurance, and NYDFS guidance for financial services firms. This wave of regulatory requirements has created an urgent and growing demand for organizations capable of designing, implementing, and operationalizing enterprise end-to-end AI governance programs. "As AI moves deeper into the enterprise, organizations need to turn governance principles into controls that can scale with adoption," said Aaron Moroson, Senior Director, North America Partner Sales at OneTrust. "By combining OneTrust's platform with Artefact's technical implementation and regulatory expertise, we can help organizations bridge the gap between defining responsible AI policies and putting them into practice. Together, we're giving enterprises across North America a more comprehensive approach to managing AI risk, demonstrating compliance, and building trust as their AI programs scale." Artefact's North American entity, led by Ghadi Hobeika, operates at the intersection of frontier AI deployment and enterprise data governance. The firm holds advanced deployment partnerships with Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI, giving clients direct access to the models shaping the AI landscape alongside the governance architecture required to deploy them responsibly at scale. Artefact was named Google AI Partner of the Year in EMEA for two consecutive years and is among a select group of firms worldwide holding deployment certifications across all three major frontier AI platforms. "We built the AI Risk and Data Trust practice in North America because we saw a gap the market wasn't filling: organizations that had moved quickly on AI adoption and now needed to govern it with the same rigor they had applied to building it," said Ghadi Hobeika, CEO North America, Artefact. "Our work in Europe proved the gap is closeable through the right mix of platform technology and disciplined process. OneTrust brings the infrastructure; we bring the implementation. Together, we close the distance between intent and execution faster than either organization could alone." Platform meets practice: a purpose-built partnership The OneTrust AI-Ready Governance Platform(TM) helps organizations define purpose, automate risk analysis, enforce controls, and continuously monitor risk across domains so the business can move faster without losing control. It offers integrated solutions for areas of governance, including AI Governance, Consent & Preferences, Privacy Automation, Data Use Governance, Tech Risk & Compliance, and Third-Party Management. The expanded partnership brings together OneTrust's platform and Artefact's full-lifecycle AI governance implementation capabilities, spanning regulatory scoping, AI inventory, program design, and enterprise governance frameworks. The combined offering addresses the spectrum of AI risk and compliance requirements facing enterprises in financial services, insurance, healthcare, consumer, and technology sectors. "North America is experiencing a regulatory cascade that will reshape how enterprises build, deploy, and govern AI systems over the next two years," said Paul Laurent, Head of AI Risk & Data Trust, Artefact. "Every regulated organization with an active AI program, whether in financial services under NYDFS, in insurance under the NAIC Model Bulletin, or in consumer-facing businesses under state ADMT frameworks, is navigating the same fundamental challenge: how do you operate AI at scale with accountability? That is precisely the problem this partnership is designed to solve." The partnership includes joint go-to-market programs, co-developed implementation methodologies, and coordinated enablement for enterprise clients navigating the intersection of AI deployment and regulatory compliance.
