Why this is canonical

'Process' names the operational layer of any system: the repeatable, disciplined sequence through which work gets done and governance is applied. Pairing it with 'provenance' on .ai positions this name at the intersection of AI-system operation and the procedural rigor that regulators, auditors, and enterprise buyers increasingly require.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

AI compliance operations
Provenance as a defined, auditable operational process within AI development and deployment — not a one-time audit but a continuous discipline.
AI compliance teams, MLOps platform builders
Enterprise quality and governance
The process layer for provenance in enterprise data operations — defining, enforcing, and auditing origin-tracking as a systematic business process.
Enterprise governance platforms, BPM vendors with data governance capabilities

Illustrative, not exhaustive — held as a transferable canonical position, open to the buyer's own use.
