Paradigm - The Platform for Safe, Trusted, and Governable Agents

Security . Trust . Observability . Governance

Paradigm is a unified platform that enables regulated enterprises to deploy and govern agents and agentic workflows - chat agents, search agents, and custom agents built with policy controls - with enterprise-grade enforcement and end-to-end observability. As the AI & MCP gateway, Paradigm treats every connector and tool call as a potential risk and enforces policy inline so agents are productive and auditable.

Why is a unified platform needed

Agents unlock productivity - but when assembled from point products they introduce operational, security, and regulatory risk. Connectors and tool calls can leak sensitive data, models can produce unverifiable or harmful outputs, and audit trails are often incomplete or fragmented. Enterprises need a single control plane that enforces consistent policy across connectors, models, and agents in real time - not a patchwork of disconnected tools that increase cost, complexity, and risk.

What makes Paradigm different

Paradigm is the only complete platform for agentic governance - the only AI & MCP gateway that delivers security, trust, governance, and observability as a single holistic platform, ready to use out of the box.

Most competitors are point solutions. To run agents at scale, enterprises often stitch multiple products together - adding integration cost, operational complexity, and security gaps. Paradigm removes that burden with an integrated control plane that provides everything required to deploy, operate, and audit agents in production.

Policy & Governance Engine

Centralized policy authoring and enforcement for all agents and connectors. Policies map directly to enterprise controls and regulatory frameworks to enable practical compliance and operational controls.

Secure MCP Gateway

Proxy and inline enforcement for tool calls: schema & argument validation, allowlists, rate/size limits, and sanitization of tool results before any agent consumes them..

Observability & Auditability

Unified, tamper-evident telemetry and lineage for every interaction: identity, policies applied, enrichment sources, decisions, blocks, and approvals - all searchable and exportable for audits and investigations.

Built-in Agents + Agent Builder

Production-ready Chat Agent and Search Agent out of the box, plus a no-code Agent Builder to compose governed agents with human-in-the-loop gates and prebuilt connectors

Deploy anywhere

The same policy, controls, and observability whether deployed SaaS, private VPC/managed cloud, or fully on-prem (including air-gapped), enabling procurement and data-sovereignty flexibility.

Platform capabilities

Inline enforcement for connectors & MCP

Validate every request and sanitize outputs to prevent indirect prompt injection and server-side exfiltration.

Secure RAG with enforced RBAC

Secure retrievals enforce per-agent access controls so an agent can only enrich prompts with data it is authorized to access; provenance tagging preserves segregation and auditability.

RAG protection with RBAC

Per-user access, selective embeddings, redaction, and provenance tagging for every retrieval.

Response verification, factuality checks & provenance

Validate outputs for factuality, detect hallucinations and inappropriate content, and attach lineage and confidence metadata to every agent response.

DLP for PII & confidential data

Data-loss prevention for sensitive data applied to both prompts and responses, according to configured policies.

Human-in-the-loop gates

Configurable approval points for high-risk agent responses or actions.

LLMOps automation

Policy-aware model selection, token tracking, usage monitoring, and lifecycle controls.

Continuous adversarial testing

Integrated red-teaming to surface jailbreaks, prompt injection, and model drift.

Tamper-evident audit trails

Exportable evidence packages for procurement and audits.

How it works

Ingress validation

Every MCP/tool call is validated for schema, destination, and applicable policy before execution.

Protected retrieval

Enterprise data accessed via secure RAG with RBAC, encryption, and redaction rules.

Model execution under policy

Integration with major language models (public, private, open-source) and policy controls to conditionally permit model use by groups or restrict sensitive data usage.

Egress controls & verification

Tool outputs sanitized, instruction-like content neutralized, and responses verified and tagged with lineage/confidence before delivery.

Audit & escalate

Searchable logs and configurable escalation to human reviewers for high-risk outputs.

Product modules (bundled view)

Platform Services

Connectors (GoogleDrive, OneDrive, SharePoint, S3/MinIO, Snowflake, Slack, etc.), monitoring, and integrations with public, private, and open-source language models

Flexible deployment

Paradigm supports flexible deployment models to meet enterprise constraints: SaaS, private VPC / managed cloud, or fully on-prem (including air-gapped). The same policy controls, audit logging, and governance capabilities apply across deployment modes so teams can meet procurement, compliance, and data-residency requirements without compromise.

Assurance & regulatory readiness

The Paradigm platform is designed to meet enterprise and regulatory expectations for high-assurance agents:

  • Aligned with NIST AI RMF (NIST 600-1); Paradigm's policies and controls map to 12 of the 15 NIST 600-1 controls.
  • Addresses OWASP Top 10 risks relevant to agentic workflows and connectors.
  • Supports ISO/IEC 27000 information security principles.
  • Built to help organizations implement controls for the EU AI Act and GDPR obligations.

Why customers choose Paradigm

Single control plane

Manage agents from one console with consistent policy, enforcement, and observability across cloud, on-prem, air-gapped, or hybrid environments. Policies include prompt security, response security (factuality & hallucination detection), data protection and redaction, RAG/Retrieval RBAC, model selection controls, human-in-the-loop gates, and lifecycle/LLMOps rules - all enforced inline so you don't need to stitch multiple point products.

Out-of-the-box readiness

Built-in Chat Agent and Search Agent plus Agent Builder and prebuilt connectors for fast time-to-value.

Observability & enterprise assurance

Unified telemetry, tamper-evident lineage, factuality/provenance reporting, and exportable audit trails that provide the evidence teams need for compliance and investigations.

Flexible deployment & lower TCO

Deploy where you need it and reduce integration cost, vendor sprawl, and operational complexity; improve ROI by replacing multiple point solutions with a single platform.

Compliance-ready

Policies and controls that map to NIST 600-1 controls and OWASP Top 10 mitigations, giving enterprises a single product instead of many stitched solutions.
