“We were stalled on rolling out our new credit-scoring model because we couldn't answer the internal questions on bias and compliance. Meridian AI gave us a framework in 6 weeks — the model went live and we've seen a 12% default reduction. The whole process was transparent to our board.”

Michael Osei CCO, PayForge

“The team's ability to straddle both our engineering org and our legal team was the differentiator. Meridian built our model-risk-management playbook from scratch and trained 80 of our data scientists on it. That's real leverage.”

Common Questions

The AI Governance FAQ

We focus on the regulations that materially affect your AI use cases. Our core frameworks cover the EU AI Act (specifically its risk-classification requirements for financial services), the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, NYDFS Part 255, OCC Bulletin 2023-15, and the broader Fair Lending (ECOA/Reg B) implications of algorithmic decisioning.

For a typical firm with 3-5 AI use cases, a scoped assessment takes 6-8 weeks. Our process is heavily templated from 120+ prior engagements — we deliver a prioritized risk register and a practical mitigation roadmap, so your team can act immediately, not after a multi-month study.

Our team is roughly a 50/50 split. Half are former OCC/Fed examiners and bank CROs; the other half are data scientists and ML engineers who have built and deployed models in production. That mix means we speak both the language of compliance and the language of your engineering team — fluently.
