What Saidot does
Saidot is a Finnish AI governance company that helps enterprises and governments systematically govern and monitor their AI-powered systems while fostering transparency with stakeholders. Founded in 2018 by Meeri Haataja and based in Helsinki, Saidot has been an early and consistent advocate for responsible AI in Europe, and its platform reflects a strong alignment with EU regulation and public-sector transparency needs. The product organizes an organization's AI systems, models, and use cases into a connected 'graph' that captures relationships, risks, controls, and documentation, and it maps these to frameworks such as the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 42001. Saidot places particular emphasis on governing generative AI safely, giving policy, risk, and compliance teams structured workflows to assess use cases, apply guardrails and policies, and maintain auditable records. Its clientele has notably included public institutions such as the Scottish Government as well as enterprises and consultancies. Saidot's distinctive positioning combines European regulatory credibility, a transparency-first ethos, and a graph-based data model that connects governance artifacts rather than treating them as isolated checklists.
