Microsoft Responsible AI Standard
Microsoft's official product-development requirements for responsible AI.
Microsoft's Responsible AI Standard sets product-development requirements for putting six principles into practice: fairness, reliability and safety, privacy and security, inclusiveness, transparency, and accountability. Microsoft publishes the standard as guidance for designing, building, and testing AI systems, including impact assessments and oversight for sensitive uses.

Who it applies to
Teams that adopt Microsoft's responsible-AI practices as an internal governance standard.
Key obligations
- Apply the six responsible-AI principles
- Complete responsible-AI impact assessments
- Oversee sensitive and restricted uses
- Document transparency and accountability
How Maetra maps agents to Microsoft RAI
Maetra provides the impact-assessment evidence, oversight workflows, and audit trail that turn the Responsible AI Standard's requirements into demonstrable practice.
In practice, Maetra:
- Scans and fingerprints each agent. Discover reads the agent’s code — its tools, data access and sensitivity, actions, model, and environment — into an evidence-backed profile tied to the exact file and commit.
- Decides what applies. That profile determines whether Microsoft RAI is in scope for the agent and which of its requirements apply.
- Auto-detects controls and surfaces gaps. Controls your code already satisfies are detected automatically from the scan; the rest become a clear list of gaps, each tied to the requirement and the evidence it still needs.
- Proves it and keeps it current. Close gaps with linked evidence or generated documents — reused across every framework the same control supports — and Maetra re-checks on each rescan and flags evidence that has gone stale.
