From AI Governance Playbook to Operating System

How AIGN OS Operationalizes the World ECONOMIC FORUM Responsible AI Playbook 2025

The new World Economic Forum Responsible AI Innovation Playbook (2025) outlines what organizations must do – nine “Plays” across strategy, governance, and development. The bottleneck is how: less than 1% of organizations have fully operationalized Responsible AI.

–> AI Innovation: A Playbook by World Economic Forum

AIGN OS provides that missing “how”: the world’s first AI Governance Operating System – audit-ready, certifiable, globally mapped. From Readiness Checks and the ASGR Index to the Compliance Compass, Culture Frameworks, Education and Trust Labels, AIGN OS delivers the operating system for Responsible AI – today. 

  • The Playbook defines 9 essential plays and calls for parallel action by companies and governments. It is notprescriptive, but a flexible roadmap that adapts to context and maturity. 
  • Implementation gap: The principles are widely accepted, but practice is lagging. This is where AIGN OS enters – as the operating layer between regulations/standards (EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF, Data Act) and enterprise operations.
