Centific partners with Virtue AI to deliver responsible-AI-by-design

This integration delivers 30x faster multimodal protection enabling full-stack AI security for clients across 230+ locales in a single environment.

SEATTLE, June 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Centific, a leader in AI data infrastructure and expert data-as-a-service (DaaS) solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with Virtue AI, a specialist in AI security and safe AI innovation. Together, we're empowering technology innovators and model builders to accelerate development with responsible-AI-by-design—enabling faster, safer, and more transparent GenAI capabilities from training to deployment.

From data curation and fine-tuning to deployment and monitoring, the partnership provides continuous oversight and auditability—helping organizations meet evolving regulatory standards while reducing operational risk. In live environments, for example, Centific's platform uses Virtue AI's Virtue Guard to monitor model behavior over 30 times faster than alternative guardrail solutions, greatly expanding real-time protection capabilities without sacrificing performance.

This collaboration brings Virtue AI's policy-aware, security-first tools into Centific's enterprise-ready AI Data Foundry platform, further expanding its ability to accelerate safe, scalable AI. Foundational AI builders and labs can now rapidly validate and deploy models that are secure, compliant, auditable, and built to scale. By incorporating Virtue AI into its suite of capabilities, Centific is making responsible AI practices a built-in part of every development phase—not an add-on or afterthought.

This integration combines Centific's full-stack AI Data Foundry platform and enterprise-grade DaaS infrastructure with Virtue AI's powerful suite of tools:

• Virtue Guard for real-time multimodal, multilingual guardrails
• Virtue Red for automated, continuous red teaming and benchmarking
• Virtue Agent for secure, policy-aligned agentic AI system operations

These tools include support for more than 320 risk dimensions and over 90 languages. With Centific's expert DaaS solutions and human-in-the-loop (HITL) frameworks, we will collaboratively expand responsible AI capabilities to cover more than 230 languages—alongside custom policy-based risk categories, continuous monitoring, real-time guardrail, and actionable insights. This breadth of responsible AI support covers all major data modalities, including text, image, audio, video, and code.

"Foundational AI teams are pushing thousands of models and agents into production faster than ever," said Vasudevan Sundarababu, Chief Data and AI Officer at Centific. "By integrating Virtue AI's groundbreaking safeguards into our AI Data Foundry platform, we're empowering our clients to de-risk models pre- and post-deployment—while accelerating the velocity they need to stay ahead."

This partnership offers an independent, full-stack responsible AI solution amid the growing consolidation of the AI safety supply chain. Together, Centific and Virtue AI deliver speed, accuracy, and continuous evolution through an expanding prompt corpus without the risk of client data becoming accessible to competitors.

Centific's responsible AI solutions provide automated workflows for red teaming, accessibility compliance (ADA), content policy enforcement, and localization—with an HITL approach throughout. These capabilities complement Centific's scalable infrastructure, helping foundational AI teams implement robust safeguards on a global scale with minimal friction.

"Centific's data-first platform offers one of the most comprehensive infrastructures to develop responsible AI systems" said Bo Li, co-founder and CEO at Virtue AI. "We're partnering with them to take that infrastructure even further, embedding responsible AI directly into enterprise-grade production pipelines—where it's needed most."

The Centific-Virtue AI integration is now available to all clients through Centific's AI Data Foundry platform. Interested parties can request a demo by going to https://centific.com/contact-us.
