AI-as-a-Service
What if the strategy, governance, compliance, and platform all came in one engagement?
It does. AI-as-a-Service is the bundled, six-to-twelve-month program — Phase 0 strategy through Phase 2 platform deployment — under a single statement of work, a single accountable engagement lead, and a single examination-readable deliverable. The engagement deploys the Virtova proprietary stack (the AI Rubric, the Hybridization Strategy, the MRM factory) plus a Frontier Foundry platform (AutoCEN, CyberAudit, or Monui) tuned to the firm's regulatory surface, on a profile that mirrors the published bank case study.
