What the standard gives you

More than just a PDF.

The AIGAS standard is the authoritative document behind the framework, the pathway, and the platform. Everything else you’ll see on this site is built on it.

Framework

The full 15-control framework

Every control explained, mapped to a governance domain, with the evidence expectations firms need to meet.

Pathway

Bronze & Silver criteria

What Bronze self-certification requires, what Silver independent assessment adds, and how firms progress between them.

Bridge

ISO 42001 mapping notes

How the AIGAS controls align with ISO 42001 concepts, so firms preparing for the international standard know what carries over.

What people ask before downloading.

Is the AIGAS standard free to download?
Yes. Version 1.0 of the standard is free to access. The form is used only to verify your identity, provide the download link, and notify you when new versions are published. You do not need to be certified to read the standard.
Can I share the PDF with colleagues?
Yes, within your firm. We ask that external colleagues request their own copy through this page so they can be added to the notification list and receive material updates automatically.
Do I have to commit to certification to download?
No. Many firms download the standard well before deciding whether to pursue Bronze or Silver. Reading the framework is part of that decision. There is no obligation attached to the download.
