About Us
Manifest
Smart, Ethical, and Autonomous Compliance
We, at Data Riders, believe that the future of compliance in mining does not have to be slow, opaque, or dependent. We believe that it is possible to combine technology, ethics, and agility to transform a regulatory obligation into a strategic advantage.
For years, we have witnessed the reality in the trenches of compliance: manual audits, confusing processes, piles of documents, and systems that trap clients in cycles of dependency. That’s when we decided: this needs to change.
Thus, GISTM.ai is born—not as just another consultancy, but as a platform. A digital copilot that puts control back in the hands of companies. An artificial intelligence designed to speed up audits, eliminate errors, and make compliance with the Global Industry Standard for Tailings Management (GISTM) a clear, continuous, and reliable process.
Our mission is:
- Break away from the outdated model of compliance as a consultancy product.
- Replace ghost hours with measurable results.
- Fight opacity with total transparency.
- Strengthen ethics as a competitive advantage.
- Give voice to the client and autonomy to risk managers.
We believe that:
- Compliance doesn’t have to be a black box.
- AI agents can work tirelessly to ensure security and governance.
- Reports shouldn’t take months—they can be generated in minutes.
- An audit system can (and should) be resilient, scalable, and collaborative.
This manifesto arises from real-world experience—from those who have audited dams, written reports, and faced regulatory deadlines. It stems from the frustration of seeing time and resources wasted—but, above all, from the conviction that we can do things differently. Let me know if you need more translations—I’m happy to assist!
We are here to transform compliance from the inside out.
We don’t sell promises. We deliver applied technology, autonomous agents, real-time dashboards, and an architecture designed to make compliance a continuous process—not a one-time effort.
If you seek agility without losing precision. If you value ethics above easy profits. If you want to lead mining with responsibility and transparency.
You are already part of this revolution.
Welcome to GISTM.ai
The future of compliance is intelligent. It is ethical. It is autonomous. And it has already begun.
