Vendor & Embedded Agent Governance
A large and growing share of the AI agents actually operating inside your company weren't built by anyone internal. They arrived embedded in a SaaS tool you already pay for, turned on by the vendor, sometimes without a real announcement. Four governance patterns for the procurement moment.
Who this pack is for
Procurement, security, or IT leads responsible for approving new SaaS purchases or renewals, who currently have no structured way to ask “does this tool have an AI agent embedded in it, what can it do, and what happens if the vendor changes that later.” Anyone who's been surprised by a vendor silently enabling an AI feature for all customers of a tool they already have a contract with is this pack's buyer.
This pack is for the agent a vendor built, running inside infrastructure you don't own, discovered through procurement rather than a build pipeline.
What's in the pack
The same vendor contract can hide features at very different risk tiers, one that commits you to a decision without human confirmation, another that's just a read-only dashboard. Four patterns walk through a real vendor-embedded feature end to end, from first discovery to ongoing monitoring.
Catches an AI capability a vendor rolled into an already-contracted tool, and tells you whether you can actually turn it off.
Gives each vendor capability its own risk tier, from what it touches and what it can commit you to, so review effort matches actual risk.
Moves an ad hoc legal question, does the vendor train on your data, is there an opt-out, into a repeatable gate at signing or renewal.
A recurring check for a vendor expanding an already-reviewed capability without asking.
Does not replace the vendor's own security or compliance certifications, this pack governs what your organisation asks and monitors, not whether the vendor's own AI is well-built. Does not cover agents your organisation builds or pilots internally, that's Pre-Build Readiness and Pre-Launch Readiness's territory. Does not give you contractual leverage you don't already have, a vendor that refuses to answer these questions is a finding, not something this pack can force them to change.
