Glyph Guard

The control layer between AI and action.

Runtime oversight for AI agents in production. Every request inspected before it reaches the model. Every response scanned before it reaches your users.

How It Works

Glyph Guard is not an AI watching your AI.

It's deterministic software: written rules and statistical analysis that produce the same verdict every time. There is no model in the loop to hallucinate, drift, or be talked out of a decision.

Your Agent
Glyph Guard

inspects every request, blocks threats in milliseconds

Model
Glyph Guard

scans every response, stops data leakage

Your Users

Before the model ever sees it, Glyph Guard inspects it. Anything malicious or outside your policy is blocked in milliseconds, and the model never runs.

Inspection

<10ms

Deterministic

No model sits in the detection path. The same input produces the same verdict every time, with nothing to hallucinate or be talked out of.

Developer-first

A drop-in proxy, an SDK, and a CLI. Author policies as code, test payloads locally, and watch decisions stream to your terminal.

Real engineering

Twelve detector categories, six statistical risk engines, and a test suite behind every decision. Not a prompt, not a wrapper, not a model.

Integration

Sits between your agent and production. No retraining, no prompt changes, no model swap. Adopt it however fits your stack.

No code change to your agent. Point your existing OpenAI or Anthropic client at the proxy: every request is inspected in, every response scanned out.

# route through the guard, your key rides in a header
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://guard.your-domain.com/v1",
api_key="glyph", # placeholder
default_headers={
"X-Glyph-Api-Key": OPENAI_KEY,
"X-Glyph-Agent": "support-bot",
},
)
 
# your agent code is unchanged. blocked
# requests never reach the model.

Use Cases

If an AI agent can touch real data or real systems, it can be attacked. These are the deployments where Glyph Guard matters most.

  • -Block manipulation attempts before the bot ever reads them
  • -Stop an agent from revealing one customer's data to another
  • -Detect pressure that escalates gradually across a conversation
  • -Keep every conversation inside the policies you define

Capabilities

Full visibility into every request and response passing through your AI agents. See what your models are doing in production, not what you hope they're doing.

The Console

Guard uplift

All models · 7 models · API + edge · 1,632 payloads · Phase 1 + Session 49, April 2026

Each model was run twice against the same payloads: once with Glyph Guard, once without. Detection includes the quantitative risk layer, which holds flagged responses before delivery; deterministic scanners alone average 96.0%.

Common Questions

The check itself is deterministic code, not a second model call, so evaluation runs in a few milliseconds. In SDK mode the engine runs in-process, so the overhead is near zero. In proxy mode the extra network hop puts measured end-to-end overhead around 100 to 200 milliseconds, which is small and predictable next to typical LLM response times of 500ms to 5 seconds. And blocked requests return faster than normal ones, since the model never runs at all.
