Asago is an open-source project associated with Red Hat that aims to make AI governance requirements actionable in the development and operation of AI systems.

It maps requirements from sources such as the EU AI Act and NIST AI Risk Management Framework to risk assessments, use-case-specific safety tests, mitigations, and controls, with audit evidence linking requirements to implementation. The project also targets deployment artifacts for tools including Kubernetes, Terraform, and Ansible. Its significance lies in connecting policy and assurance expectations with practical, reviewable controls across AI deployment workflows.
