NEW YORK — Diligent, the AI leader in governance, risk and compliance (GRC) solutions, today announced a major enhancement to Diligent One, its native AI platform, at Gartner’s Enterprise Risk, Audit and Compliance Conference (ERAC).

“For many organizations, GRC work is slowed by fragmented systems, manual coordination and time-consuming reporting processes,” said Brian Stafford, President and CEO of Diligent. “Our latest agentic capabilities help teams cut through that complexity by connecting context, surfacing what matters and driving faster execution — while keeping governance and professional judgement at the center.”

The orchestration agent in Diligent One gives GRC professionals a natural-language interface to coordinate audit and risk work. Instead of simply answering questions, it enables users to describe what they need, and routes work to the right specialized agents to execute workflows. Agents are built on Diligent One’s connected GRC data, giving them the domain knowledge to execute workflows across the audit and risk lifecycle, automating the work that slows practitioners down without replacing human judgement.

  • Help risk teams move from periodic assessments to continuous management by working directly in Diligent Enterprise Risk Management. The agent monitors risk data, cleans records, coordinates assessments, follows up on overdue actions, escalates issues and surfaces emerging risks.

  • Help internal audit teams plan and execute audits faster by turning manual preparation into conversational workflows in Diligent Audit. The agent identifies relevant risks, maps them to audit objectives, links existing controls and supports evidence collection, testing and findings development.

In addition, AI reporting turns live risk and controls data into board-ready reports and insights on demand. Using conversational prompts or templates, teams can quickly surface key findings and generate polished, secure, source-cited reports in minutes instead of days — eliminating hours spent manually pulling together data, insights and presentations.

“Risk and audit teams are being asked to look beyond what happened yesterday and give the business the insights it needs to make better decisions today and tomorrow,” said Scott Bridgen, General Manager, Risk & Audit at Diligent. “That means moving from static, point-in-time reporting to always-on monitoring that can identify changes as they happen and trigger action in real time, with the right level of oversight, approval and accountability.”

At the foundation of Diligent One is the GRC brain, a connected intelligence layer that links regulations, obligations, policies, controls, risks, evidence and actions. By connecting this information, the GRC brain gives agents the domain knowledge to work like an experienced GRC practitioner, equipped with deep context of how information connects across the business.

This connected intelligence gives Diligent One’s agents the ability to reason across relationships to deliver sharper insights and clearly explain the rationale behind the recommendations. The result is practical, actionable intelligence that helps GRC teams prioritize work, surface potential gaps and respond more efficiently to emerging risks. The GRC brain will become available in select Diligent solutions in October.
