AscentAI-CoreStream partnership boosts GRC automation

AscentAI

AscentAI and CoreStream GRC, a GRC platform known for its flexible, no-code framework, have announced a new partnership and integration.

The collaboration is designed to improve how financial services firms manage regulatory change and link obligations to internal policies and controls.

The partnership was formed in response to a growing demand among compliance teams for more efficient, automated systems capable of keeping up with the increasing complexity of regulatory environments. Financial institutions are under mounting pressure to monitor, interpret, and adapt to evolving regulations, and manual processes are proving unsustainable.

AscentAI brings advanced regulatory intelligence and automation capabilities to the partnership. Its RLM platform uses artificial intelligence to deliver global regulatory updates through AscentHorizon and fully automate change management processes via AscentFocus. These tools ensure financial institutions can remain compliant by connecting evolving regulations directly to their policies and controls.

CoreStream GRC, meanwhile, offers a highly configurable no-code platform that enables organisations to manage governance, risk, and compliance activities in one place. Its integration engine allows firms to tailor how regulatory data is ingested and used, aligning easily with internal workflows without the need for custom development.

Through this integration, users can benefit from real-time horizon scanning, automated change management, and configurable workflows—ensuring that compliance operations remain agile and accurate. The partnership is especially relevant for CoreStream’s financial services clients, who will gain access to AscentAI’s deep regulatory coverage and automation expertise.

AscentAI CEO Christopher Junker said, “Our RLM Platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with leading GRC platforms like CoreStream GRC. This partnership enables financial institutions to digitally transform and automate their regulatory lifecycle with accuracy and confidence, linking obligations to policies and controls with precision and speed.”

CoreStream GRC co-founder and chief product officer Richard Eddolls said, “Using the power of our integration capability, we continue to serve as the GRC backbone, connecting with best-of-breed AI services like AscentAI to deliver smarter, more agile compliance solutions tailored to our clients’ needs.”

The integration also supports flexibility, allowing organisations to decide whether to implement AI-powered features or maintain a non-AI setup, depending on their compliance strategy and risk appetite.
