Getting Started with AIXYRA: Platform Onboarding Guide
Getting started with governance shouldn't take a quarter. This walkthrough shows how to register your first AI entities and stand up a working governance workflow — so you see value in days, not months.
Register your first entities
Start small. Register a handful of your most important AI systems along with the models, tools, and data they rely on. You'll have a clear, shared picture of what you're running almost immediately.
Configure a workflow that fits you
Set up an approval workflow with checkgates that match your organization's risk appetite. Route reviews to the right people. Governance should reflect how your teams actually work — not force them into someone else's process.
Connect your clouds early
The registry you build by hand covers the AI you know about. Connect your AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud accounts so discovery scans surface the AI usage nobody registered — then triage each finding into the registry or out of production. Teams are routinely surprised by what turns up, and it's far better to be surprised in week two than during an audit.
Let the platform answer questions
Adoption sticks when answers are cheap. In-app guidance walks each team through registration and review, and the built-in governance agent answers questions like 'what's stuck in approval?' or 'which systems touch personal data?' conversationally, from your organization's own data. The fewer questions that require finding the right person, the faster governance becomes routine.
Grow from there
Once your first workflow is running, expand coverage entity by entity. Add compliance mapping, turn on risk scoring, and bring in more teams — at the pace that suits you. Watch the reports as you go: governance pipeline metrics and coverage KPIs tell you whether the program is actually spreading or just launched.
Key takeaways
- Begin with your most important systems and their dependencies.
- Configure approval checkgates that match how your teams work.
- Connect cloud accounts early — discovery finds the AI nobody registered.
- Use in-app guidance and the governance agent to make answers cheap.
- Expand coverage gradually — value in days, not months.
