Altrace sits between your agents and the models they call. A multistage governance engine controls what they can access, how much they can spend, and what they are allowed to do — whether they cooperate or not.
What Altrace controls
01
Stop any agent instantly — by team, by agent, or globally. One click to shut down all AI activity.
02
Hard budget ceilings per team and per agent. Every request is checked before it reaches the model.
03
Bidirectional scanning — detect sensitive data and policy violations in both inbound requests and outbound responses, automatically.
04
Control which tools each agent can use. Block unregistered or unauthorized tools before they execute.
05
Require agents to look up data before taking action. No refund without an order lookup first.
06
Discover unknown agents on your network. Automatically escalate when behavior deviates from baseline.
07
Five escalation levels — from monitoring to full quarantine. Behavioral fingerprinting detects drift. De-escalation is deliberately slower than escalation.
08
Real-time stream scanning with cross fragment reassembly. Sensitive data detected midstream triggers immediate cancellation.
09
Enterprise identity provisioning, single sign-on, zero-trust service identity, and role-based access control.
How it's different
Most tools rely on the application to enforce rules — which means a misconfigured or compromised agent can ignore them. Altrace enforces at the infrastructure layer, below the application.
All AI traffic passes through Altrace before it reaches any model. No code changes required. Governance is mandatory, not optional.
Runs inside your infrastructure. No content is extracted, stored, or transmitted.
Every governance decision is recorded in an immutable chain. Prove exactly what happened, when, and why — to any auditor.
