Your Commerce. Your AI Model. No Lock-In.

KIBO AI is model-agnostic by design. Connect OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini or open-weight models, and switch or layer them as your needs and the technology evolve. You’re never tied to one vendor’s pricing, roadmap or release cycle — and you’re never locked out of the next meaningful model improvement.

Read Lawrence Roycroft on why model choice matters — “Breaking Free From Lock-In: The Case for Bring Your Own AI Model”

Governance you can show, not just claim.

For European businesses, AI governance is a procurement question today, not a future one. KIBO AI answers it with mechanisms rather than assurances: any action that would change data stops for human approval before it executes, every Playbook runs under its author’s own access rights, and every run is logged with what it saw, what it changed and who approved it. Freedom within control, not autonomy without oversight.

Supporting points:

  • GDPR-native data handling — designed in, not retrofitted.
  • EU AI Act–aligned audit trails — every action and prompt logged.
  • Approvals held for sensitive actions before they execute.
  • Agent permissions scoped per playbook, under their author’s own access rights.
