What is Prediction Guard?

Prediction Guard is a control plane for organizations that run fleets of AI agents and need to decide what each agent may do. It sits between applications and the model, tool and compute layers, registering each agent with an identity and role, limiting access to approved models and MCP servers, and checking every input, output and action against policy. If a check fails, the caller receives a policy violation and the action is blocked, and the site cites under 200ms of control overhead per request. Further capabilities include PII masking, prompt injection and toxicity checks, human-in-the-loop approval, kill switches and quarantine, an immutable audit log, SIEM streaming to tools such as Datadog and Splunk, an exportable AIBOM, and the no-code Agent Forge builder. It exposes OpenAI and Anthropic compatible APIs and deploys in your own cloud, on-prem, hybrid or air-gapped. Pricing is through AWS and Azure Marketplace listings or custom Enterprise agreements.

Use cases

  • Govern what AI agents can access
  • Block out-of-policy agent actions
  • Mask PII in model inputs and outputs
  • Audit every agent and model call
  • Set API key rate limits and quotas
  • Stream AI security events to a SIEM
  • Build no-code agents with controls
  • Align agent controls with NIST and OWASP

Who it's for

  • Platform engineers
  • AI engineers
  • Security and compliance teams
  • Software vendors

Why use Prediction Guard

  • Applies one set of controls across models, tools and agents instead of stitching together separate services.
  • Stops out-of-scope actions before they run and records each decision for audit.
  • Data and policy decisions stay inside your trust boundary, including air-gapped setups.
  • Existing OpenAI or Anthropic SDK code works against the compatible endpoint.
  • Buying through AWS or Azure Marketplace can use cloud spend you have already committed.

How to get started with Prediction Guard

  1. Deploy the control plane in your cloud account, on-prem or air-gapped environment.
  2. Connect cloud model endpoints, self-hosted models and MCP tool servers to the registry.
  3. Register agents with identities and roles, and create API keys with rate limits and quotas.
  4. Point your SDK at the compatible endpoint so input, output and tool calls are checked.
  5. Review the audit log and stream events to your SIEM, intervening with approvals or kill switches when needed.

Prediction Guard limitations

  • Marketplace rates are shown on each AWS or Azure listing rather than on the site
  • SSO, SAML, air-gapped deployment and a contracted SLA are Enterprise only
  • You deploy and run the control plane in your own environment
