Monitaur Brings Objective Assurances to High-Impact AIBOSTON, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Monitaur, the leading AI governance platform for regulated enterprises, today announced the standalone availability of FlightSim, giving AI developers and deployers access to objective validations that deliver confidence in how an AI system performs across a range of risk and performance dimensions. FlightSim is part of the Monitaur platform, leveraging the same expertise that helps enterprises and innovators alike operationalize governance that mitigates risks, secures compliance, and improves AI-related business outcomes. Like a penetration test for AI, FlightSim puts high-impact AI systems through objective, repeatable validations and simulated scenarios to assess their performance and readiness for use. It produces scorecards that highlight key issues, recommend remediations, and provide a measurable view of the system's performance across critical risk dimensions. The need for rigorous AI evaluation is growing as organizations rapidly adopt models, agents, and other AI systems. An Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) survey found that 90% spend more than 10% of their time on AI evaluation, with 30% spending more than 30%. At the same time, 40% cite a lack of suitable evaluation methodologies as the biggest challenge. The findings underscore the need for more scalable, repeatable approaches to AI evaluation. “Objective validations that provide confidence and assurance in the trust and reliability of AI systems across different data and modeling modalities are very difficult to scale,” said Dr. Andrew Clark, Co-Founder and CTO of Monitaur. “As the proliferation and impacts of AI and agents continue to accelerate, human review capacity and generalized evalution, testing, and validation techniques fall short. FlightSim is designed to address these gaps, and by making FlightSim a standalone offering, we enable a broader community to leverage our expertise, independent of our full platform.” Monitaur’s base of large global enterprises and regulated entities has started to require successful FlightSim results as a gate to purchasing and deploying high-impact AI systems. Now available standalone, more companies can easily leverage FlightSim as a part of their deployment stacks and complementary vendor management security processes. FlightSim leverages black-box testing techniques to evaluate an AI system with minimal user input and without requiring access to a developer's proprietary code or underlying algorithms. Its enterprise-grade software applies Monitaur’s proprietary research and established objective evaluation and validation best practices to assess AI systems across critical dimensions including reliability, performance, bias, and security. “We have always been inspired by the foundations of aerospace engineering, complex system design, and concepts like Nassim Taleb’s antifragility.” Dr. Clark continues, “Especially for our most consequential and high-impact systems, we should assume AI will encounter situations not anticipated, designed, or evaluated for. FlightSim complements developers' efforts and prepares our companies with a broader confidence and understanding of AI’s fit for purpose and readiness before use.” FlightSim is available today as part of the Monitaur platform and as a standalone solution. When combined with the platform, FlightSim enables governance automations and continuous production monitoring. Learn more about FlightSim or contact us to get started.
