What is TrustMark™ AI?
TrustMark™ AI is the independent verification of AI-related contract terms. TermScout™ analyzes your agreements against evolving industry standards to validate compliance and transparency. The outcome is a trusted AI certification badge that builds confidence with customers and helps deals move faster.
