The twelve governance capabilities
Bedrock is more than a ledger. It is the governance layer that sits between your AI and your customers. These twelve capabilities are how it earns that name.
Each capability produces evidence into the immutable ledger and maps to a specific section of the FCA Handbook. Click through for the details: what each one captures, which API surfaces it, which rule it satisfies, and how to use it.

How to read these pages
Every feature page follows the same shape: what the feature is, what evidence it produces, which API surfaces it, and which FCA rule it maps to. If you're an engineer, the API and evidence sections are what you want. If you're a compliance officer, the rule mapping and evidence sections are what you want.
