Runtime AI Control

The control point that matters is runtime.

Enterprise AI governance is moving beyond policy documents and retrospective dashboards. The next control point is runtime: the moment an AI request is routed, governed, approved, blocked, logged or escalated. Songlines gives organisations a practical path into that operating model — starting with visibility, telemetry, cost attribution and audit evidence, then extending toward inline policy enforcement and routing control through Gateway and Platform capabilities.

Step 1 — Control
Visibility & Evidence
AI inventory, usage telemetry, cost attribution, audit trail, and governance evidence — across every model and workflow.
Step 2 — Gateway
Inline Enforcement
Policy enforcement and routing control at the point of execution — before the request reaches any model or agent.
Step 3 — Platform
Full Sovereign Stack
Air-gapped deployment, IRAP evidence packages, and complete operational sovereignty for government and critical infrastructure.

AI is Running.
No One is in Control.

AI is scaling rapidly across the enterprise. But underneath the surface, the infrastructure to govern it simply does not exist yet.

"AI doesn't behave like software licences. It behaves like a meter running 24/7 — and right now, no one is watching the meter."
Shared Responsibility Architecture
Built for Australian enterprise and government requirements
On-Premise Private Cloud Hybrid
Unpredictable Costs
Token consumption scales without visibility, creating budget overruns and financial risk across AI deployments.
Unpredictable Agent Behaviour
Autonomous agents act outside defined boundaries, creating compliance exposure and operational risk.
Disconnected Governance
Policy frameworks exist on paper but are not enforced at the point of AI execution, leaving a critical gap.
No Runtime Visibility
Organisations cannot see what AI systems are doing, what data they access, or what decisions they influence in real time.

The Enterprise AI Control Plane

From invisible cloud line-item to fully attributed AI spend in under 10 minutes. Songlines Control® gives you one pane of glass across every AI model, workflow, and team — with a clear upgrade path to full sovereign infrastructure.

Control at the Point of Execution

Songlines Control® intercepts every AI interaction and applies enterprise policy before the request reaches any model or agent. Unlike competitors who alert after the fact, Songlines fires at the point of execution — 0ms alert latency.

1
Request Intercepted
Every AI request from applications, agents, or users is routed through the Songlines control layer.
2
Policy Applied
Enterprise policies are evaluated in real time — governance rules, cost limits, and compliance checks enforced instantly.
3
Optimised & Routed
Tokens are optimised, the most cost-effective model is selected, and the request is routed with full audit logging.
4
Governed Response
The response is returned through the control layer, ensuring compliance and full observability end-to-end.
Sovereign AI — Shared Responsibility Model

Sovereignty is an operating model, not a hosting claim.

Most “sovereign AI” claims fail when a CISO asks where the boundary actually sits. Cetus AI is precise about this. The Songlines Shared Responsibility Model makes the boundary explicit across four layers — Platform Hosting, Model Routing, Identity & Access, and Enterprise Ecosystem — so boards, procurement teams, and security assessors know exactly what Cetus AI governs and what the enterprise must enforce.

“The right question is not ‘Is this sovereign?’ — The better question is: ‘Which sovereignty boundary are we claiming, and what must the enterprise enforce to preserve it?’”

1
Least-Privilege Access
Systems, users, and agents only access the data and functions required for their specific role — nothing more.
2
Zero-Trust Access Controls
SHA-256 hashed API key validation, role-based access control enforced at the procedure level, no implicit trust between services or users.
3
Cryptographic Integrity
HMAC-SHA256 signatures on all outbound webhook payloads, TLS 1.2+ in transit, no plaintext secrets stored anywhere in the platform.
4
Auditability by Default
Organisations can understand exactly what AI systems did, why they did it, and which data or systems were involved.
5
Responsible Deployment
AI is deployed in ways that align with policy, operational constraints, and organisational risk settings — not just capability.

Your Role

The question your role is asking right now

Songlines Control addresses the specific governance question every enterprise decision-maker is facing — from a single, unified control layer.

CIO
“Can we see and govern AI usage across our application estate without rebuilding every workflow?”
CFO
“Can we attribute AI spend by team, model, workflow and business owner before costs become embedded?”
CISO
“Can we identify when sensitive data, unapproved providers or risky workflows require stronger controls?”
Risk & Audit
“Can we produce evidence of AI usage, controls, routing and policy decisions without manual reconstruction?”
Government
“Can we support responsible AI adoption with Australian control, clear accountability and defensible evidence?”
Procurement
“Can we assess AI operating risk, vendor boundaries, shared responsibility and proof obligations before scale?”

Built in Australia.
Built for What's Next.

We exist because enterprise AI deserves better than hope. Better than prompts and prayers. It deserves a control layer.

Our Story

Cetus AI was founded by a team of enterprise technologists, AI researchers, and security architects who kept seeing the same problem: organisations were deploying powerful AI systems with almost no visibility into what those systems were actually doing at runtime.

Red-teaming helped. Fine-tuning helped. But once a model was in production, interacting with real users and real data, the guardrails were largely gone. Costs spiralled unpredictably. Sensitive data leaked into prompts. Agents made decisions no one could audit. And compliance teams were left holding the bag.

We built Songlines Control® to be the layer that sits between your enterprise and every AI model you run — observing, governing, optimising, and enforcing in real time, before a single token reaches the model.

We named it after the ancient Australian navigational framework that guided people across vast, complex terrain with precision and purpose. That's exactly what we do for enterprise AI.

What We Stand For

Sovereignty First
Australian data stays in Australia. We will never compromise on data residency for enterprise or government customers.
Radical Transparency
Every AI interaction should be observable, auditable, and explainable. Black-box AI has no place in enterprise infrastructure.
Human in the Loop
AI should augment human judgement, not replace it. Our platform is designed to keep humans meaningfully in control of consequential decisions.
Research-Led
Through Cetus AI Labs, we publish our findings openly. Better enterprise AI governance is a shared challenge, and we intend to help solve it.
