Narrow control plane for AI agents: enforce least-privilege on tool/API calls, block PII leaks, and generate human-readable audit logs.

Sidecar proxy: deploys inside your VPC as a lightweight proxy so raw payloads and PII never touch third-party infrastructure.
Least-privilege enforcement: block unauthorized tool calls and API requests based on runtime policies.
Fail-closed compliance: on proxy or network disruption, policies default to fail-closed to prevent unverified execution.
Immutable audit logs: every tool call, payload interception, and policy decision recorded as structured, human-readable logs.
PII masking: intercept and mask PII in agent payloads before they leave your perimeter.
Broad LLM & tool integrations: works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure AI, AWS Bedrock, GitHub, Slack, and Vercel out of the box.
Governance controls: rule-based and dynamic policy libraries, plus RBAC/SSO and multi-tier approvals in Enterprise.
Compliance-ready: SOC 2 / ISO compliance suite and custom SIEM integration in the Enterprise VPC tier.

Security team enforces which tools an internal agent can call and blocks anything outside its least-privilege scope.
Compliance officer generates SOC 2 / ISO evidence from immutable audit trails of every agent decision.
CISO deploys AI copilots in a regulated environment while keeping raw payloads and PII inside the corporate VPC.
Platform team masks PII in outgoing prompts before they hit a third-party LLM provider.
SecOps investigates an agent incident using a full timeline of tool calls, prompts, and policy decisions.
Enterprise standardizes runtime governance across many agents, LLM providers, and business units.

Open-source unified observability for logs, metrics and traces, with an AI SRE agent that correlates signals and an LLM cost and eval monitor.

Unified Telemetry Store: Holds logs, metrics, traces, RUM, session replay and error tracking in a single system instead of separate tools per signal type.
Columnar Parquet Storage in Rust: Built on the DataFusion engine with no index to build, which underpins the claimed 140x storage and 30x compute reduction versus Elasticsearch.
Autocorrelation Engine: Continuously pairs signals across frontend, API, application, database, network and infrastructure layers at over a million signals per second.
AI SRE Agent: Investigates an incident by building a service graph, quantifying SLO and revenue impact, identifying the root cause from trace evidence, and applying a corrective action such as a rollback.
Proactive Daily Briefing: Reviews every service over a rolling 14-day window and flags the ones degrading, with the deploy or change that coincided with the regression.
Agentic and LLM Observability: Tracks token spend, per-model usage mix and error rates across models in production, with failed evaluations shown alongside prompt, output and grader score.
Transparent Usage Pricing: Charges per GB ingested and per GB queried with retention included, rather than tiered seat or host licensing.
Self-Hosted or Managed Cloud: The same platform can run entirely inside your own infrastructure or as a fully managed service, including BYOB for enterprise deployments.

Cutting Observability Spend: Replace an Elastic or Datadog deployment while keeping a year of log retention, using far less storage and compute for the same data.
Automated Incident Triage: Let the SRE agent correlate an error-rate spike to a specific deploy and propose the rollback before an engineer is paged.
Monitoring LLM Applications in Production: Track token cost, model mix and evaluation failures across several models serving live traffic.
Catching Slow Regressions: Surface a service whose p95 latency quietly tripled after an index rebuild, which threshold alerting would miss.
Full-Stack Root Cause Analysis: Trace a checkout failure from the browser through the API and into the database on one correlated timeline.
Compliance-Constrained Deployments: Self-host the whole observability stack so telemetry never leaves your own infrastructure.
SLO Management: Measure which service level objectives an ongoing incident is putting at risk and how much of a user flow is affected.
