Hudson · AI analyst

A junior GRC analyst.
Not a chatbot.

Most TPRM platforms bolt AI onto the surface. Hudson is built differently: an agent that investigates vendor risk, triages alerts, executes workflows, and writes the reports, with the discipline to always ask before it acts.

Triage · live

A critical alert fires. Watch Hudson work it.

For every alert type, breaches, CVEs, rating changes, Hudson follows a standardized investigation runbook. It does not just surface the alert. It investigates it, then proposes a complete response plan you approve action by action.

What Hudson can do

30+ tools, chained into real work.

Hudson is embedded directly in Scout with access to your entire vendor risk program. It chains tools together to complete workflows that would take a junior analyst hours, end to end, in seconds.

01 / Investigate

Investigate & analyze

Ask about any vendor and get an instant risk briefing, score, open findings, document gaps, monitoring alerts, supply-chain dependencies. Hudson pulls in parallel and returns findings, not raw data.

02 / Triage

Triage security alerts

Every alert follows an investigation runbook: check for duplicates, calibrate severity by tier and data sensitivity, and propose a complete response plan on a single action card you approve.

03 / Execute

Execute workflows

“Onboard Datawise as a Critical vendor” becomes five operations, check the Trust Network, create the record, request the right docs, start the assessment, enable monitoring, in one conversation.

04 / Report

Generate reports

Executive summaries, vendor deep dives, findings reports, board-ready portfolio overviews, produced on demand inside the conversation, without leaving what you're doing.

05 / Learn

Learn your preferences

Tell Hudson how your team works, “always enable monitoring at onboarding”, and it remembers, for everyone. Shared institutional memory, codified and editable in Settings.

06 / Brief

Open with a briefing

Open a new Hudson window and it greets you with what needs attention, critical alerts, overdue assessments, unresolved issues, prioritized and ready to investigate with one click.

How Hudson works

Not a chatbot. An analyst that does the work.

Hudson sits inside Scout and runs the parts of vendor risk management that used to eat the week, then hands you decisions instead of raw data.

01

Listens

Hudson monitors every vendor continuously, watching for breaches, CVEs, rating changes, and posture shifts the moment they surface across the web.

02

Reads

Every assessment, SOC 2, questionnaire, and finding in your program, read together, not one at a time. Hudson reconciles what the sources say and surfaces the gaps.

03

Drafts

Findings, response plans, and vendor reports, drafted with a severity, a rationale, and the source attached to each. You approve. Hudson executes.

Reads everything

Every source in the program, read together.

Hudson does not look at one vendor at a time. It reads across your whole program at once, reconciles what the sources say, and drafts the finding when they disagree.

Vendor assessments and questionnaires
SOC 2 reports and certifications
Security monitoring alerts and CVEs
Breach disclosures and credential leaks
Contracts, DPAs, and policies on file
Hudson reconciles
Hudson drafted High severity
Credential exposure with no documented IR plan

Meridian Cloud has active credential leaks on infostealer markets and zero compliance documentation on file. The SOC 2 lapse and breach overlap suggests the vendor cannot verify their own response.

How it works

Discovery, recommendation, execution.

Every task follows the same structured progression. The boundaries between phases are enforced in code, not just by prompting, Hudson is as disciplined about when not to act as it is capable of acting.

1
Phase 01
Discovery
Hudson investigates autonomously, pulling from multiple sources in parallel. Live status updates show every tool call as it happens. There is no black box.
2
Phase 02
Recommendation
It proposes a specific plan, what gets created, what gets modified, the expected impact. Hudson structurally cannot skip from discovery to execution.
3
Phase 03
Execution
You review and approve. Hudson executes. Every write action is logged with full attribution: who approved it, which session, which tools, what changed.
Built for trust

Hudson drafts. You decide.

Hudson never changes the record on its own. It proposes, shows its work, and waits. Every write is yours to approve, edit, or reject. Capable enough to run the program. Disciplined enough to ask first.

Hudson · how it earns trust
Approval gates enforced in code. Hudson cannot modify data without your explicit sign-off. Reads are autonomous. Writes always stop for approval.
Full audit trail. Every action logged with user attribution, session tracking, and tool-specific detail. Reconstruct exactly what happened and who approved it.
Investigation transparency. See exactly which data sources Hudson consulted and what it found. The findings summary shows its work.
Org-scoped access only. Hudson only sees your organization's data. Row-level security is enforced on every query, every time.
Trust architecture

Capable enough to run the program. Disciplined enough to ask first.

Hudson's trust model is enforced in code, not through prompting. Most enterprise AI either has no write access (a search bar) or unconstrained access (a liability). Hudson sits in the middle.

Approval gates

Hudson cannot modify data without your explicit sign-off. Reads are instant and autonomous. Writes always stop for approval.

Full audit trail

Every action logged with user attribution, session tracking, and tool-specific detail. Reconstruct exactly what happened and who approved it.

Investigation transparency

See exactly which data sources Hudson consulted and what it found. No black-box reasoning, the findings summary shows its work.

Real-time visibility

Watch Hudson work with live status updates as it investigates. You see each tool call the moment it happens.

Conversation memory

Sessions persist across page navigation and refreshes. Pick up where you left off, context carries forward.

Org-scoped access

Hudson only sees your organization's data. Row-level security is enforced on every query, every time. No shortcuts.

Live states

Hudson signals its state, at a glance.

The beacon communicates what Hudson is doing so you always know whether to wait, review, or take action.

State 01

Idle

Ready, watching. Hudson is in the workspace and waiting for input.

State 02

Analyzing

Rings in motion. Hudson is reading, reconciling, or investigating right now.

State 03

Needs you

Node pulses with a halo. A response plan is ready and waiting for your approval.
