Supervise advice.
Prove every outcome.
Bedrock gives regulated advice firms one place to review every recommendation, and tamper-proof evidence of the outcome, whether or not AI helped draft it.
AI is now used by 41% of UK advice professionals. Almost none can prove oversight.
The FCA holds firms accountable for the advice they give, and increasingly for the AI behind it. Most have no way to capture, supervise, or present that oversight, leaving them exposed as regulatory pressure intensifies.
No verifiable trail
Logs can be edited. Screenshots can be fabricated. A sealed record cannot.
Undocumented oversight
Reviewers approve advice in chat threads and email. Nothing is timestamped or signed.
Evidence that takes weeks
Manual reconstruction for FCA requests consumes compliance teams for weeks.
Core capabilities
One platform.
Every case.
The same standard covers every recommendation your firm makes, whoever gave the advice and whatever helped draft it.
From advice to evidence, end to end.
The platform sits over your advice, turning each recommendation into a supervised, provable record without changing how your advisers work.
The inputs are captured
The moment a recommendation is produced, its inputs are captured: what it was built on, the client context, and what any AI contributed.
A reviewer checks it
The right reviewer works the case through a checklist. Every step of the review is captured, not just the final decision.
The decision is sealed
The recommendation, the reasoning behind it, the review, and the decision are locked into a permanent record that cannot be altered or backdated.
Proof on demand
Turn any record into a complete evidence pack in minutes, or a certificate anyone can verify independently.
Regulatory alignment
Built for the standards you are held to.
The platform is built around the obligations that govern regulated advice, and produces the evidence each one demands.
Common questions.
What is Bedrock Governance?
Bedrock Governance is a compliance and oversight platform for FCA-regulated advice firms, used to supervise, record, and prove the outcomes of client recommendations.
Which firms is it for?
Networks overseeing appointed representatives, consolidators standing behind the advice in books they acquire, and directly authorised firms answering for their own advice.
Does it require us to use AI?
No. Firms that draft every recommendation by hand get the same supervision and the same evidence. Where a model is involved, its contribution joins the record.
How is this different from the records we keep today?
The record is written as the advice is given and cannot be revised afterwards. It is evidence rather than recollection.
Can the FCA check the evidence without taking our word for it?
Yes. Any record or certificate can be verified against the chain independently, with no account needed.
Which rules does it map to?
Consumer Duty, the Senior Managers and Certification Regime, suitability, and systems and controls. You define your firm’s controls against those provisions, and Bedrock supplies the evidence that each one is operating.
