Diligent Named a Leader in Governance, Risk and Compliance Platforms in Q2 2026 Report by Independent Research Firm
Diligent believes recognition underscores AI leadership in GRC, with highest scores possible across, audit management, compliance management, and enterprise risk management criteria
Diligent, the AI leader in governance, risk and compliance (GRC), today announced that it has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Governance, Risk, and Compliance Platforms Q2 2026 report.
Diligent received the highest score possible in the Platform Use of AI and AI Agents criterion, which it believes reflects its leadership in embedding intelligence across the GRC lifecycle. Diligent also received the highest score possible in the criteria of Risk Identification, Risk Intelligence, Risk Quantification, Audit Management, Compliance Management, and Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). In Diligent’s view, these results validate its market-leading ability to connect risk and assurance activities, strengthen oversight, and support more informed decision-making.
This latest recognition comes as more organizations turn to AI to keep pace with growing complexity in GRC, yet many remain constrained by legacy, fragmented environments. Recent Diligent Institute research shows only 19% of organizations have fully integrated systems, while 65% remain partially integrated. Diligent's platform helps close this gap by unifying governance, risk, audit, and compliance in a single, AI-powered view that surfaces risks earlier and guides more confident decisions.
