Kanawai AI

Kanawai AI is a web-based enterprise platform for tracking organizational AI use, spend, governance, and security. It continuously discovers AI tools, plugins, and model endpoints, including unsanctioned tools, to maintain an inventory. Spend views attribute token use and cost to users, teams, workloads, models, and departments across connected providers. The platform can recommend lower-cost models when they may deliver the same outcome. For governance, it converts regulatory frameworks and internal policies into machine-enforceable rules, with ongoing evaluation, containment, evidence generation, and escalation. Listed assessment frameworks include NIST AI RMF, NIST CSF 2.0, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA. Kanawai says it works at the application layer through scoped OAuth 2.0, SAML 2.0, or OIDC flows, without endpoint agents or cloud-environment changes. Governance actions produce signed, tamper-evident artifacts with timestamps and chain-of-custody logs. Deployments can be in the United States, Europe, or Asia with full data isolation. The AI FinOps Pilot costs nothing for 30 days; a paid subscription is optional afterward. Pricing is available on request, and there is no free plan.
