Enforcing policy on every tool call in <100ms, with runtime decisions that block unsafe actions before they reach your infrastructure.
No credit card. Zero risk. Seven-day shadow report included.
The post-approval gap
During an active code freeze, an AI agent in a production CRM deleted 1,206 executives and 1,196 companies, then generated about 4,000 fake records to hide the blast radius. Every standard control was online. Nothing in the stack stopped the action at execution time.
Approval happens once at session start. Agent behavior can keep running for hours. Thoth sits at the moment of action, after credentials are issued and before damage lands. That is prevention, not after-the-fact reporting.
AIRS vs AISPM
Posture, identity, and observability each solve part of the problem. Runtime enforcement is the missing layer that can intervene before an unsafe action executes.
POSTURE (The Map)
What it does: Configuration snapshots, risk scoring, and inventory.
Limit: Sees state, not behavior. Cannot stop an action already in motion.
Players: Aim, Noma, Zenity
IDENTITY (The Who)
What it does: Credential issuance and access approval.
Limit: Stops at the front door. Cannot see what an approved agent does next.
Players: Oasis, Okta FGA, Aembit
RUNTIME ENFORCEMENT (The Shield)
<100ms latency · WORM receipts
What it does: Sub-100ms enforcement at the tool-call layer.
Limit: Sees intent and blocks execution before damage lands in production.
Players: Thoth (AIRS Leader)
OBSERVABILITY (The Memory)
What it does: Traces, logs, and quality scoring.
Limit: A record of what happened, without intervention.
Players: LangSmith, Langfuse, Arize
Core capabilities
Thoth blocks the tool call before damage lands. Your SOC gets the alert with the receipt already attached.
Thoth links each agent to the OAuth tokens and API keys it uses. If usage shifts by resource, location, or pattern, Thoth steps in before execution.
Every blocked action writes a tamper-evident record: agent identity, tool call context, credential trail, and reason. Teams use this evidence for SOC 2, HIPAA, and EU AI Act Article 12 audits.
Start in shadow mode with zero risk, run a seven-day observation window, and get a report of exactly what your agents are doing behind the policy gate.
