CoreStream GRC x SANNOS webinar: Beyond AI chatbots: intelligence-first GRC your board can trust

Date: Monday 20th April 2026

Time: 4 PM CET / 3 PM BST / 10 AM EST

Speakers: SANNOS’ CEO and CoreStream GRC’s GRC Strategy Director

97% of GRC professionals report using AI to streamline compliance and risk processes.

But in the race to keep up, Artificial Intelligence has often been bolted onto existing tools and programs in fragmented ways. While this may deliver surface‑level efficiency, generic large language models (LLMs) can actually increase risk exposure; introducing accuracy gaps and generating outputs that are difficult to defend to boards, auditors, or regulators.

SANNOS and CoreStream GRC offer a more assured approach to AI‑powered GRC.

Together, the platforms reflect a shared ex‑Big 4 DNA and a clear ambition: to redefine how modern GRC teams operate, with confidence, credibility, and control.

“The problem with generic AI in compliance is that it can sound convincing without being defensible. Our approach is different. We work from real documentation and control evidence, so the output is grounded, explainable, and ready for serious review.”

 Anders Søborg, Co-CEO, SANNOS

What you’ll learn in this SANNOS X CoreStream GRC webinar

In this fire side chat, Anders Søborg SANNOS’ Co‑CEO Anders and CoreStream GRC Strategy Director Paul Cadwallader will explore what intelligence‑first GRC really looks like, versus generic AI bolt‑ons, and what this new integration means in practice. They’ll walk through high‑value use cases, demonstrate tangible outcomes, and answer your questions live.

How the CoreStream GRC X SANNOS integration works

CoreStream GRC provides a flexible, intuitive single source of truth for enterprise risks, controls, ownership, evidence, reporting and more. Designed for enterprises’ unique governance requirements, it delivers clear accountability, robust workflows, and full auditability across the organization in a way that works for them.

SANNOS adds an intelligent execution layer on top of this foundation by automating control assessments, validating evidence, and generating audit‑ready outputs mapped to regulatory frameworks. Rather than producing generic AI responses, SANNOS operates directly on real documentation and control data, delivering consistent, traceable, and defensible results.

Sannos is the only AI platform accredited by Cyber‑AB for the Secure Controls Framework (SCF), providing additional assurance for regulators, auditors, and boards alike.

What GRC professionals benefit from with this partnership

Together, CoreStream GRC and Sannos combine auditable evidence with intelligent, automated analysis inside a mature, enterprise‑grade GRC environment, transforming how all three lines of defense operate:

  • First line no longer performs manual self‑assessments
  • Second line shifts from periodic testing and reviews to continuous improvement
  • Third parties move away from questionnaires, submitting evidence directly, analyzed by SANNOS in minutes instead of weeks

The result isn’t a best guess. It’s traceable, defensible, regulator‑grade output, designed for the boardroom, not a chat window. This marks a shift from manual, periodic processes to continuous, evidence‑driven assurance.

If your risk and compliance workload is growing faster than your team’s capacity, this is a session worth attending.

What you’ll learn about governance, risk and compliance in this live webinar

In this session, Anders from SANNOS and Paul from CoreStream GRC will cover:

  • The future of GRC and AI
  • Best practice examples of what good AI integration can do
  • Why generic AI falls short in regulated environments
  • How evidence-based AI changes compliance and audit workflows
  • Where governance risk compliance software can create faster, more defensible outcomes
  • What this means for third-party risk, controls, and board reporting

What is intelligence-first GRC?

Intelligence-first GRC is an approach that combines strong governance, risk, and compliance workflows with evidence-based AI. Instead of relying on generic large language models, it uses real documentation, control evidence, and mapped frameworks to produce outputs that are traceable, auditable, and ready for serious review.

How is intelligence-first GRC different from generic AI in compliance?

Generic AI can sound convincing, but that does not make it reliable in regulated environments. Intelligence-first GRC is different because it works from real evidence and control data. That gives risk and compliance teams more consistent, explainable, and defensible outputs for boards, auditors, and regulators.

What will the CoreStream GRC and SANNOS webinar cover?

This session will explore what good AI integration looks like in practice, why generic AI falls short in regulated environments, how evidence-based AI can improve compliance and audit workflows, and how the CoreStream GRC and Sannos integration supports stronger governance, controls, and third-party risk management.

How does the CoreStream GRC and SANNOS integration work?

CoreStream GRC provides the flexible, no-code GRC platform for risks, controls, evidence, ownership, workflows, and reporting. SANNOS adds an intelligent execution layer that automates control assessments, validates evidence, and generates audit-ready outputs mapped to regulatory frameworks. Together, they help teams move from manual, periodic work to continuous, evidence-driven assurance.

Why does evidence-based AI matter in GRC software?

In GRC, speed on its own is not enough. Teams need outputs they can stand behind. Evidence-based AI matters because it improves accuracy, transparency, and auditability. That is critical when dealing with compliance reviews, internal audit, third-party risk, and board reporting.
