You already have the evidence. Proving it is the problem.

Policies, registers, minutes: they sit across four drives, three owners and two years of good intentions. Encircle reads what you have, tests it against every framework that applies, and turns the result into a score you can put in front of a board.

01

Start with frameworks already loaded

King V, POPIA, PRECCA, the Companies Act, AI Governance and our own King V SMME baseline are built in. Every control and test behind them is already written, so you begin with the questions asked rather than a blank page.

02

Bring the evidence to it

Your assistant reads the files where they sit, or you connect a drive and Encircle reads them for you. Either way, each document is matched to the controls it satisfies and their tests are answered.

03

Let it find the gaps

Encircle AI answers the tests from your evidence, or your own assistant does. Where an answer comes back No or Partial, a remediation task appears against it, and closes itself once the answer improves.

04

Stay current

Documents expire. Encircle knows each review cycle and reminds the owner before it lapses, so your score reflects today and not last year's audit.

Connect your AI

Bring your own assistant. Your documents stay where they are.

Encircle publishes an MCP server. Point the assistant your team already uses at it, and it can work your governance programme with you, reading your files where they sit and never uploading them.

It answers, and then it acts
Ask what your organisation still owes, look up a control, or see what is waiting on a decision. Then accept a document, answer a test, or renew one that is expiring, all from the conversation.
Your documents never leave your machine
Point it at a file where it actually sits, including a path on your own computer. Your assistant reads it there and records what it concluded. Encircle stores who recorded it, what the document is and where it is kept. Never the document itself.
It tells you what it did not check
Answers your assistant produced are marked as such, kept separate from answers Encircle read itself, so a reviewer always knows which is which.

The Encircle framework

Good governance has four dimensions.

Every legal requirement, industry mandate and best-practice standard maps into one of twelve scoring domains, grouped under four pillars. Each domain carries a live score from 0 to 100.
