Platform

Governance, mapped to how your business runs

Procela is the connective tissue of your governance program — tying the processes, people, systems, and data you already have into one aligned, auditable system.

Four pillars, one platform

Everything a governance program needs to run

Business-process-first governance

Start with how your business actually works

Procela maps value streams, processes, sub-processes, and steps — and the data and systems behind each one. It complements the databases, warehouses, and tools you already run, sitting alongside them to answer what none can on their own: what process, what data, who owns it, and is it governed.

Stewardship & ownership

Clear accountability across every data domain

Assign data owners, domain stewards, and AI agents to assets with RACI and DAMA roles and explicit decision rights. Procela's principal model treats human and AI participants as first-class governance actors, each operating under explicit, auditable authority.

Policies & controls

Policies that flow from business rules, not spreadsheets

Define governance policies and controls in plain language. Procela records them against the assets they govern, tracks them alongside gaps and issues, and maintains a full, tamper-evident audit trail of every change and decision.

Edge connector

Scan your sources without moving your data

The on-prem edge connector deploys inside your environment via Kubernetes or Helm. It reads schema, table, and column metadata plus row counts — never values — and sends only that metadata over outbound HTTPS. Your data never leaves your perimeter.


How it fits together

One governance program, alongside the tools you already run

Procela connects to the databases, warehouses, and transformation tools you already run for metadata-only governance, and ties what it finds to owners, processes, and controls — without becoming another silo.

The principal model

Human and AI governance actors, under explicit authority

Every steward, owner, and agent in Procela is a “principal” with a defined scope of authority. A three-tier model describes how human and AI actors share that authority — from advising, to preparing changes, to approving them. Procela's AI today is assistive and review-gated: it suggests classifications, owners, and domains, and a human approves before anything is applied.

Advisory

Recommends, a human decides

The agent surfaces suggestions — a classification, an owner, a policy match — and a human decides. A model for keeping authority with people in your highest-sensitivity domains.

Propose & approve

Prepares changes for review

The agent prepares changes and routes them for approval. Nothing is accepted until a steward signs off, and every decision is logged. Procela's AI today is assistive and review-gated.

Shared authority

A concept for splitting human and AI roles

The three-tier model describes how human and AI actors can share governance authority — a way to reason about who advises, who prepares, and who approves. It frames how Procela's review-gated agents fit into your program.
