Orientation only — not legal advice. **Internal battle cards:** [COMPETITIVE_LANDSCAPE_LOCKED_v1.md](../diligence/COMPETITIVE_LANDSCAPE_LOCKED_v1.md) --- ## How should we think about Noetfield vs Microsoft Purview? Microsoft Purview and the Copilot Control System secure and administer your M365 tenant — labels, DLP, DSPM for AI, audit, and agent lifecycle. Noetfield records whether a **specific Copilot rollout** is authorized under your policy **before production**, and exports a Trust Ledger Entry (TLE) plus board PDF and procurement ZIP that reviewers can attach to governance minutes. We index **metadata evidence** from Purview, Entra ID, and Audit — we do not replace Microsoft admin tools. --- ## We are evaluating Credo AI / enterprise AI governance platforms. Do we still need Noetfield? Enterprise AI governance platforms excel at inventory, regulatory policy packs, and program-wide risk workflows. Noetfield is scoped to the **Copilot adoption moment**: pre-execution evaluate, signed TLE, and board-ready export in a **90-day fixed-fee pilot** ($2k–10k). Many institutions run a program platform for the enterprise and a Copilot Governance Pack for the rollout receipt. --- ## What about Securiti or other data+AI security vendors? Unified data and AI security platforms address multicloud DSPM, agent guardrails, and broad compliance automation. Noetfield is narrower: **governance execution + evidence** for Microsoft 365 Copilot — evaluate → TLE → export — with fail-closed integrity on procurement bundles. --- ## How is this different from a Copilot readiness assessment from an MSP? Readiness assessments typically remediate SharePoint permissions, labels, and tenant hygiene over several weeks at services rates. Noetfield delivers a **repeatable evaluate API**, Trust Ledger receipts, and exportable board/procurement artifacts — productized pilot with a defined success signal: **one board PDF in a real governance meeting**. **QuickScan sub-band (NF-QS):** CAD $2,000–$3,500 · sample TLE and export walkthrough — upgrade path to Readiness Pilot ($5k–$10k) for board-meeting success signal. --- ## Runtime AI gateways (inline LLM proxy) — same category? Runtime gateways intercept every model request for redaction, block, and per-request logging. Noetfield evaluates **operational intent** for Copilot governance (rollout scope, policy version, approver chain) and produces **organizational go/no-go evidence** — metadata-only M365 index, not inline LLM traffic for all models. --- ## Canadian federally regulated institutions (OSFI E-23)? OSFI E-23 (effective May 2027) expects enterprise AI model risk management. Noetfield provides **independent-style decision records** (TLE + evidence index) for Copilot adoption — orientation toward E-23 evidence, not a replacement for your OSFI program. See [CANADIAN_OSFI_E23_COPILOT_ORIENTATION_v1.md](../diligence/CANADIAN_OSFI_E23_COPILOT_ORIENTATION_v1.md). Bank Pilot offers read-only shadow simulation. --- ## What is out of scope? No payments, custody, settlement, or money transmission. No ISO/SOC certification claims from Noetfield. Framework citations are **orientation only**. --- ## Proof without NDA - [Proof case (redacted)](https://www.noetfield.com/copilot/proof-case/) - [SSOT compliance demo](https://www.noetfield.com/copilot/demo/) - [TLE samples](https://www.noetfield.com/trust-ledger/sample-report/) - [Free sandbox](https://www.noetfield.com/start/) --- **End v1**
