Controls in the path of AI traffic

Instead of monitoring applications only after something fails, the gateway sits between an application and its model providers. Teams can route requests, enforce policies and inspect usage and cost in the same layer.

Moving beyond model access

The next development phase covers identity, permissions and spending limits for agents, alongside infrastructure for larger workloads. Enterprise sales expansion is another priority for the new funding.

Where the funding goes

  • Enterprise go-to-market expansion
  • Agent permissions and budget governance
  • Infrastructure for higher-volume workloads
