Xayn is the First German Company to Receive ISO/IEC 42001 Certification

June 02, 2025

We are proud to certify AI startup Xayn against ISO/IEC 42001, making it the first German company to meet the artificial intelligence management system (AIMS) standard.

ISO/IEC 42001 ensures that AI systems are developed and used ethically, transparently and comply with data protection regulations.

Leadership through responsible AI

Xayn, a Berlin-based AI startup, is developing Noxtua, Europe's first sovereign legal AI. This supports lawyers in researching, analyzing and creating legal documents – compliant with the highest data protection standards and the GDPR.

"Xayn's management system is excellently documented, and the company shows a strong commitment to compliance and responsibility. The CEO's active involvement throughout the audit process was particularly impressive," said SGS auditor Nina Ugrinoska.

ISO/IEC 42001: a global standard for AIMS

ISO/IEC 42001 provides a certifiable framework for establishing and continuously improving an AIMS. It strengthens trust in AI applications by establishing high standards for transparency, fairness and data protection.

"We are very pleased with the smooth certification process. Being the first German company to meet the ISO/IEC 42001 standard demonstrates our commitment to responsible AI," explains Dr Leif-Nissen Lundbæk, CEO of Xayn.
