C1 SmartAI Control Coach

AI-Guided Attestation Drafting for Every Framework

SmartAI Control Coach helps control owners generate clear, accurate, audit-ready attestation responses—especially when they don’t know where to start. Part of the SmartCompliance Suite, it interprets control requirements, incorporates organization-specific context, and produces draft responses aligned with policies, standards, and real operating processes.


Key Benefits

  • Produces high-quality first-draft attestation responses
  • Reduces rework and clarification cycles
  • Standardizes response quality across all control owners
  • Infuses customer-specific policy, standard, and environment context
  • Strengthens audit readiness with clear, defensible responses

Why This Product Matters

Attestation drafting is one of the biggest friction points in compliance programs.
Control owners often don’t know how to answer, provide vague statements, or omit key details—leading to rework, back-and-forth with reviewers, and avoidable audit findings.

SmartAI Control Coach removes this bottleneck by generating a context-aware starting point that owners refine, dramatically improving clarity, speed, and accuracy across the organization.
