Why It Matters for AI Governance
Model routing enables organizations to use the best provider for each use case while maintaining compliance. Sensitive requests can be routed to on-premise models, while general queries go to cloud providers with appropriate redaction.
How CrewCheck Handles This
CrewCheck's LLM gateway applies model routing-related controls at the request boundary. Every AI call passes through detection, policy evaluation, and audit logging — ensuring that model routing is addressed consistently across all teams and providers.
The governance dashboard provides real-time visibility into model routing events, with drill-down capabilities for compliance officers and exportable evidence for auditors.
