Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI Fabrix?

AI Fabrix makes your business usable by AI.

It provides a reusable foundation for business context, authoritative information, permissions, approved operations, human approvals and Evidence across your enterprise systems.

AI interfaces such as Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or your own applications can use the same governed foundation.

Does AI Fabrix replace Microsoft?

No.

Microsoft provides the infrastructure, identity and security foundation through technologies such as Azure, Entra ID and Key Vault.

AI Fabrix complements that foundation by adding the business context, authority boundaries, governed operations and Evidence needed for enterprise AI.

Microsoft provides the technical foundation. AI Fabrix makes the business safely usable by AI.

Why not build this with Microsoft technologies ourselves?

You can build many of the individual technical controls.

The harder problem is maintaining one reusable definition of:

what business information means;
how records across systems relate;
who is allowed to see, decide or act;
which operations AI may perform;
when human approval is required; and
what must be proven afterwards.

Without a shared foundation, this logic tends to be rebuilt separately for every AI initiative.

AI Fabrix lets you define and validate it once, then reuse it.

How is AI Fabrix different from an API gateway or integration platform?

An API gateway protects and routes APIs.

An integration platform moves and orchestrates data between systems.

AI Fabrix governs how AI uses those capabilities in a business context.

It connects business meaning, identity, permissions, authority, approvals and Evidence across systems so AI can perform approved work without receiving independent authority.

What is the Business Context Map?

Enterprise information rarely exists in one system.

A Customer may exist in CRM, contracts in SharePoint, financial records in ERP and contacts in another application.

AI Fabrix creates a reusable map of approved business entities and their relationships across connected systems.

This means each new AI use case does not need to rediscover or rebuild the same cross-system context.

What is a Role Assistant?

A Role Assistant is a governed AI capability for a specific Business Role.

It can use the business context, information and approved operations available to that role, while remaining inside the identified person’s current authority.

AI Fabrix can automatically generate a Role Assistant candidate from the approved business foundation.

Generated does not mean authorised. The candidate must be validated and released before use.

How does AI Fabrix control access across multiple systems?

AI has no authority of its own.

AI Fabrix evaluates the identified person, active Business Role and applicable access boundaries before information or operations are made available.

These boundaries can include business dimensions such as legal entity, cost centre, customer responsibility or other approved organisational scope.

The same authority can therefore be applied even when an answer requires information from several systems.

If authority cannot be verified, the operation waits, is denied or safely stops.

Where does AI Fabrix run?

AI Fabrix runs entirely inside the customer’s own Azure tenant.

Customer identity remains in Entra ID, secrets remain in Key Vault and business systems remain authoritative for the records and operations they own.

AI Fabrix is not an external control plane that requires enterprise governance data to be moved into a shared AI Fabrix SaaS environment.

Is AI Fabrix tied to one AI model or vendor?

No.

AI Fabrix is designed so that AI models, assistants and interfaces can change without rebuilding the enterprise foundation.

Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude and other approved AI interfaces can use the same governed business context and operations.

This keeps business meaning, permissions and authority independent of a single AI vendor.

What does Evidence mean?

A transcript tells you what AI said.

Evidence shows what actually happened.

AI Fabrix can preserve the facts needed to review an operation, including:

who initiated it;
which Business Role was active;
what context and sources were used;
which authority and policy checks were applied;
whether human approval was required;
what operation was performed; and
whether the outcome completed, waited, failed, was denied or safely stopped.

Evidence makes AI activity inspectable instead of leaving governance hidden inside prompts or application code.

What is the main value of AI Fabrix?

Most enterprises already have AI tools, identity, integrations and business systems.

The missing layer is a reusable way to define what the business means, who has authority, what AI may do and how the result is proven.

AI Fabrix provides that foundation once, so it can be reused across AI initiatives instead of rebuilding governance and business context for every new agent.
