Why J-10

Your exposure is increasing.
Your controls cannot keep pace.

GRC platforms, workflow tools, CLMs, AI tools, consulting frameworks. You have invested in all of them. None of them can prove that a specific decision followed your policy. J-10 exists because nothing else does this.

What exists today.
Where each one stops.

CLM Platforms
What it does

Manage contract lifecycle: drafting, negotiation, storage, renewals.

The gap

Do not enforce governance at the point of commitment. Cannot govern decisions made outside the contract itself. Commitments are made in emails, approvals, verbal agreements. The CLM captures the document, not the decision.

What J-10 does

J-10 governs the decision to commit, not just the document that records it.

Legal AI (Harvey, CoCounsel)
What it does

Accelerate legal research, contract analysis, document generation.

The gap

Generate outputs that influence decisions. Do not govern whether those decisions comply with policy. AI-generated clause recommendations become contract positions without governance review.

What J-10 does

J-10 governs AI outputs at the point they become business decisions or commitments.

GRC Platforms
What it does

Document risks, controls, policies and audit findings.

The gap

Record governance frameworks. Do not enforce them at the point of decision in operational workflows. The GRC platform shows the policy. The business makes the decision. The two are never connected.

What J-10 does

J-10 converts documented policies into controls that enforce inside operational workflows.

ERP / Finance Systems
What it does

Process transactions, manage approvals, produce financial records.

The gap

Financial controls inside ERP are transactional. Cannot govern cross-system or cross-department governance obligations. Procurement commits. Finance approves. Legal is not in the loop. The obligation is already created.

What J-10 does

J-10 enforces governance across functions, above individual systems.

Workflow / BPM Tools
What it does

Automate process steps, route approvals, manage task completion.

The gap

Automate workflow steps. Do not enforce governance policy within those steps. The approval is routed correctly. The governance check inside the approval is not enforced.

What J-10 does

J-10 enforces governance inside the approval step, not just around it.

Four things that make
J-10 structurally different

01
Governance by design

J-10 builds governance into the process. Every governed decision enforces policy at the point it is made, not in a review after.

02
Cross-function by default

Legal, compliance, finance, procurement and risk share the same governance infrastructure. One platform. One audit trail. One source of truth.

03
Evidence is automatic

Every governed transaction creates immutable audit evidence. You do not collect evidence for audits. Evidence already exists.

04
Overlay architecture

J-10 sits above existing systems. Harvey stays. Your CLM stays. Your ERP stays. Governance enforces across all of them simultaneously.

How governance changes

Governance scenario
Without J-10
With J-10
High-value contract approval
Routed for signature. No policy check at commitment.
Policy enforced at approval. Evidence created automatically.
AI-generated contract clause
Clause accepted. No governance review of AI output.
AI output governed before it becomes a commitment.
Regulatory filing
Manual process. Evidence collected retrospectively.
Filing governed end-to-end. Evidence built in.
Vendor onboarding
Compliance checked at start. Not enforced through relationship.
Governance enforces throughout vendor lifecycle.
Cross-border commitment
Jurisdiction risk identified late, after commitment.
Jurisdiction controls enforced at approval point.

Technology is evolving fast.
Can your policy controls keep pace?
