The annual list honors groundbreaking advancements redefining the way we work and live

Credo AI is proud to announce its inclusion in Fast Company’s Next Big Things in Tech list. This prestigious recognition highlights emerging technologies with the potential to profoundly impact industries—from education and sustainability to robotics and artificial intelligence.

This year’s honorees represent a diverse array of technologies developed by established companies, startups, and research teams. These innovations are featured for their potential to revolutionize the lives of consumers, businesses, and society overall. While not all technologies are available in the market yet, each is reaching key milestones that signal a proven impact in the next five years.

Credo AI was recognized for its pioneering AI Governance & Trust Platform, built to help enterprises adopt AI responsibly, safely, and at scale. As AI systems — including emerging autonomous and agentic AI — become more powerful, enterprises face mounting risks around bias, security, compliance, and transparency. Credo AI’s platform bridges technical, risk, and executive teams through real-time oversight, policy enforcement, AI risk registries, and trust benchmarking, enabling organizations like Mastercard, Cisco, and McKinsey & Company to govern AI with confidence while accelerating innovation.

“This recognition from Fast Company underscores a global reality — AI cannot be transformative without trust,” said Navrina Singh, Founder and CEO of Credo AI. “Enterprises are no longer asking if they should govern AI, but how. Credo AI was built to answer that question — giving organizations the Trust OS to deploy AI systems and agents securely, safely, and with long-term impact. This award celebrates our teams, customers, and partners who recognize that governance is not just a necessity — it’s a catalyst for trusted AI adoption and a source of competitive advantage in the AI era.”

“Next Big Things in Tech is both a snapshot of the most interesting tech of the moment and a crystal ball that predicts the next several years,” says Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. “We’re excited to share this list with our readers, and we congratulate the winners for their vision and innovation.”
