About
Practical AI governance for organizations navigating change.
Trutaro helps organizations adopt AI with greater confidence through practical governance, clear decision-making, and responsible implementation.
Mike King
Founder & Principal Advisor
Mike King founded Trutaro after hearing a consistent concern from business and technology leaders: AI is advancing faster than organizations can comfortably absorb.
Many organizations want to embrace new AI capabilities, but uncertainty around governance, regulation, risk, and vendor selection often slows progress. Trutaro provides practical guidance that helps organizations adopt AI responsibly while maintaining the confidence to move forward.
His approach is grounded in more than three decades of enterprise technology experience across financial services, insurance, healthcare, and other regulated industries.

Why Trutaro exists
Organizations are under increasing pressure to adopt AI, but many are struggling to determine how to do so responsibly and confidently.
New technologies emerge almost daily. Regulatory expectations continue to evolve. Vendor claims are often difficult to evaluate. At the same time, business leaders are being asked to move quickly while managing legitimate concerns around risk, compliance, security, privacy, and reputation.
Too often, organizations feel forced to choose between innovation and governance.
We believe that is a false choice.
Governance should not be a barrier to AI adoption. When implemented thoughtfully, it becomes an enabler. It provides the clarity, confidence, and guardrails organizations need to adopt AI safely and accelerate value creation.
Trutaro was founded to help organizations navigate this rapidly changing landscape through practical, business-focused AI governance. Our approach is grounded in real-world experience, informed by evolving governance standards, and designed to support innovation rather than slow it down.
In a market filled with bold claims and competing narratives, we believe organizations benefit most from thoughtful guidance, practical expertise, and recommendations that are proportional to their objectives, risk profile, and stage of AI adoption.
Our goal is simple: help organizations move faster with AI by providing the governance, structure, and guidance needed to do it responsibly.
How Trutaro works
The principles that shape every engagement, from the first conversation to the final deliverable.
Governance as a practice, not a policy
Policies without operational substance don't govern anything. Trutaro focuses on the structures, processes, and accountability frameworks that turn governance intent into organizational practice.
Regulatory context without regulatory panic
The AI regulatory landscape is moving fast. Organizations need advisory that can separate the material from the noise and translate regulatory requirements into actionable governance decisions.
Senior advice, directly delivered
Every Trutaro engagement is led by Mike King personally. There is no junior team behind the work, no template playbooks, no hand-offs. You get the experience you engaged.
Built for real-world conditions
Governance advice designed for a fast-moving technology company often doesn't fit a regulated financial institution or a mid-sized healthcare organization. Trutaro's work is calibrated to your organization's actual context, risk profile, and stage of AI adoption.
