Enterprise AI, grounded in practice
A collaborative forum for the practical realities of building, buying, deploying and governing enterprise AI.
EntAIL brings together provider, deployer, governance, risk, technology and regulated-industry perspectives to develop practical, interoperable approaches to enterprise AI transparency and accountability.
EntAIL focuses on the implementation gap between policy and operating reality: what enterprises need to know, declare, verify and update when AI crosses organizational boundaries.
About the Forum
The Forum is organized around practical enterprise use cases. It examines the information providers can supply, the assurances deployers need, the responsibilities that change across the AI supply chain, and the standards that can be reused rather than reinvented.
Providers, deployers, governance teams, risk leaders and technologists often see different parts of the same problem. EntAIL uses those differences to clarify what must be shared and who is responsible for it.
The Forum works from concrete scenarios, including third-party AI services, regulated uses, agents, model substitutions, permissions changes and downstream notification.
EntAIL seeks common terminology and interoperable structures that can reference provenance, identity, authorization, security, evaluation and compliance evidence without replacing the systems that produce it.
Forum focus areas
EntAIL concentrates on the cross-organizational questions that become difficult once AI systems are purchased, integrated, operated and changed over time.
Clarify provider, supplier, integrator, deployer, evaluator and accountable-owner roles so declarations remain attributable at every layer.
Make material models, services, tools, dependencies, execution environments and upstream records visible in a structured, machine-readable way.
Connect intended use, unsupported and prohibited uses, validation, known limitations, failure modes, controls and evidence state.
Address identity, delegated authority, tools, data permissions, human approval, revocation, monitoring and material changes that can alter risk without changing the product name.
Current EntAIL working initiative
The AI Passport is an extensible framework for communicating what an enterprise AI model, service, system, agent or deployment is; who stands behind each declaration; what it depends on; what it is intended and not intended to do; and what has materially changed.
AI Passport framework
The cover is the entry point, not the entire record. Each layer remains attributable, version-specific and machine-readable so downstream organizations can make and maintain their own deployment decisions.
Five seed business fields plus a technical envelope make every record identifiable and comparable.
Purpose, dependencies, validation, risk, data, deployment and authority use defined page schemas.
Model, service, system, agent and deployment Passports reference one another without erasing who made each claim.
Material model, supplier, data, control or authority changes can trigger review and downstream notification.
Provider Passport · supplier-declared
The working group is reviewing which additional facts are so fundamental that they belong on every cover rather than on a specialized page. Subject type, declarer, schema version, timestamps, upstream references, state and integrity data remain mandatory in the technical envelope.

Provider and deployer perspectives
A company may publish software to customers, deploy that software internally, develop its own models and integrate upstream services. The Passport preserves the role and accountability associated with each declaration.
The provider identifies the service, its dependencies, its intended and restricted uses, the evidence available and the changes customers need to know about.
The deployer adds the specific business process, users, data, controls, oversight, jurisdiction and accountable owner associated with its own use.
Agent profile
A model produces outputs. An agent may select tools, retrieve data and take actions on behalf of a person or organization. The Agent Identity & Authority Page makes that delegated authority visible without replacing the underlying authorization system.
AI Passport interactive working concept
The v0.3 enterprise demo can be presented as a manually advanced, spotlight-guided walkthrough or explored freely. It shows provider and deployer views, Passport pages, a supply-chain roll-up, model substitution and an agent permission expansion.
EntAIL approach to standards
The AI Passport is intended to connect and present information from provenance, identity, authorization, security, model-card, system-card and assurance mechanisms. It is not a competing content-provenance standard, a universal quality score or a certification that a system is safe or compliant.
Perspectives represented
EntAIL discussions and reviews have included people whose current or prior professional experience spans AI and cloud platforms, enterprise software, financial services, healthcare, identity, security and regulated industries.
