Employees sign up with personal emails, install browser extensions, and paste data into web-based models - none of it routed through IT. The first time most CISOs see the real number, it is three to four times higher than they expected. By then, data has already left the building.
The hard part is not writing another policy. It is keeping the operating picture current while teams adopt tools, vendors change terms, and auditors keep asking for evidence.
No single signal catches everything, so Grasp watches all of them: SSO and IAM grants, the desktop agent, browser activity, network traffic, and vendor enrichment. Each detected tool arrives with a risk classification, vendor profile, and the users behind it. Not a quarterly scan - a live picture that updates the moment something new appears.
A cleaner operating rhythm: find the signal, attach the context, route the decision, and keep the evidence.
Every OAuth grant and SSO login becomes a named tool with a named user behind it. No survey, no guesswork.
Grasp is designed to reuse the same inventory, risk, vendor, and evidence data across the frameworks your team already reports against.
You cannot classify what you have not found. Discovery is the first step of any EU AI Act inventory.
A.5.9 expects an accurate asset inventory. Shadow AI quietly breaks it; Grasp keeps the AI inventory honest.
A tool you do not know about can still process personal data. Discovery surfaces that exposure before an audit does.
An AI management system starts with knowing which AI systems exist. Grasp gives you that baseline on day one.
