The Studio lets compliance teams translate regulations into enforceable policies, run them against AI agents, and store a tamper‑evident ledger of every decision. It also recommends the best small language model (SLM) for each policy, detects drift, and provides audit‑ready analytics. Integrations include GRC, SIEM and ticketing platforms such as ServiceNow IRM and Archer.\n\nThe Policy Engine enforces those policies through open runtimes like NVIDIA OpenShell, Microsoft’s Agent Governance Toolkit (AGT), or its own engine. It reaches decisions in under 200 ms using deterministic checks for repeatable outcomes and inference‑based checks that route ambiguous cases to the most suitable SLM. Each agent action receives an Allow, Deny or Escalate verdict with a severity rating. Enforcement occurs via the Solcis SDK or a gateway on model, tool and MCP endpoints. CEO Anthony Stevens said the platform connects regulation to system behavior and that self‑hosting is “non‑negotiable” for many organisations. Both products are available now, with the Policy Engine released under a Functional Source License and the Studio sold via subscription or perpetual licence. They will appear on Microsoft, AWS, Google Cloud, Oracle, NVIDIA and Red Hat marketplaces from November 2026.","keyPoints":["Solcis released Compliance Studio and Policy Engine, letting firms enforce AI agent policies and keep tamper‑evident audit logs.","The Policy Engine makes decisions in under 200 ms using deterministic rules and inference checks routed to small language models.","Products are self‑hosted, available now, and will be on major cloud marketplaces from November 2026; Studio sold via subscription or perpetual licence."],"whyItMatters":"Provides organisations with a self‑hosted, auditable way to ensure AI agents meet cybersecurity, privacy, and financial‑crime regulations, reducing compliance risk.","category":{"slug":"policy","name":"Policy & Regulation","url":"https://digestai.news/category/policy"},"entities":{"companies":["Solcis","6clicks","NVIDIA","Microsoft","ServiceNow","AWS"],"models":[],"people":["Anthony Stevens"]},"firstPublishedAt":"2026-10-20T03:00:00Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-20T03:00:00Z","sourceCount":1,"hasPrimarySource":false,"sources":[{"outlet":"manilatimes.net","title":"Solcis launches open compliance layer for AI agents on NVIDIA OpenShell","url":"https://manilatimes.net/2026/10/21/tmt-newswire/media-outreach-newswire/solcis-launches-open-compliance-layer-for-ai-agents-on-nvidia-openshell/2450296","publishedAt":"2026-10-20T03:00:00Z","type":"press","primary":false,"lead":true}],"sourceNotes":null,"discussions":[],"thread":null,"cite":{"text":"Digest AI, \"Solcis launches Compliance Studio and Policy Engine for AI agents on NVIDIA OpenShell\", 20 October 2026, https://digestai.news/story/solcis-launches-compliance-studio-and-policy-engine-for-ai-agents-on-n","publisher":"Digest AI","title":"Solcis launches Compliance Studio and Policy Engine for AI agents on NVIDIA OpenShell","datePublished":"2026-10-20T03:00:00Z","url":"https://digestai.news/story/solcis-launches-compliance-studio-and-policy-engine-for-ai-agents-on-n"},"generatedBy":"Written by Digest AI's editorial model from the linked sources; the sources are the record.","license":"Headlines, digests and key points are written by Digest AI and may be quoted with a link to the story page.
