43,280 AI events recorded on our own engineering fleet in the last 30 days.

AI security and governance

Control whatAI agents can do.

Tracelet helps security and platform teams govern AI coding tools on developer machines. Discover unapproved tools, enforce policy on supported actions, and keep a clear record of each decision.

Illustrative animation · no commands executed

We built Tracelet because AI tools now act with the same access as the people using them without the visibility, guardrails, or accountability enterprises need.

Tracelet is built and operated by Insighture. These figures come from the company’s own engineering fleet, not a demo environment.

See. Govern. Scale.

You can’t control what you can’t see.
Tracelet does both.

Why now

The incidents have started coming in.

AI coding tools now read credentials, change infrastructure and act inside production. The risk is no longer theoretical.

Most of it starts outside procurement: 78% of AI users bring their own AI tools to work, tools not provided or sanctioned by their employer (Microsoft & LinkedIn, 2024 Work Trend Index).

AWS / late 202501

An agent took down an environment for 13 hours.

Kiro deleted and rebuilt an environment. No attacker, no software fault: an autonomous agent acted on what it understood to be the request.

Agent action driftEnvironment unavailable
PocketOS / April 202602

A production database and its backups were deleted.

Cursor and Claude were reported to have deleted a production database in seconds, leaving no audit trail for the action.

Destructive commandNo attributable action record
Claude Code / December 202503

A cleanup command erased a developer's home directory.

Asked to remove test and build artifacts, Claude Code ran rm -rf with a trailing ~/. The home directory went with it: documents, photos, years of project files and the Keychain.

  • Autonomy is compounding

    Agents now plan, execute and self-correct for hours without a human in the loop.

  • MCP opens the enterprise

    Thousands of MCP servers now wire agents into databases, cloud and internal tools.

  • No governance layer exists

    Cloud tools watch the vendor's cloud. Nothing watches the machine holding the tokens.

GOVERNED AGENT SESSION

The command is only
the beginning.

Each planned action is checked against policy before it executes.

Destructive action blocked

Production backups remain protected.

Secret values redacted

Credentials are removed from tool output.

Approved work continues

The feature branch push is allowed.

Three actions. Three policy decisions. One recorded session.

Who it’s for

Built for the people
who answer for it.

  • Policies in plain English

    Type an intent, preview the rules, dry-run before enforcing. One engine for guardrails, MCP control and data protection.

  • Break-glass keycards, scored

    Incident at 2am? Access is granted, scored 1–10 for blast radius. Low auto-approves, high needs sign-off. Time-boxed, audited.

  • MCP registry & quarantine

    Approved servers only, permissions scoped per employee down to the action. Shadow installs flagged and quarantined.

  • Redaction pre-flight

    PII, secrets and custom patterns stripped before the model sees them. OCR catches what is smuggled in screenshots.

  • Developer analytics

    Adoption, kept-code rate and cost per kept line. Value, not volume; coaching, not surveillance.

New policy / Step 2ILLUSTRATIVE UI

Choose how this policy acts

GuardrailsPrevent & control

Block or warn on risky agent actions.

  • Block risky file reads and writes
  • Prevent destructive commands
  • Warn on policy violations
  • Enforce safety or usage behaviour
Best for: Platform and security teamsStart
MCPControl tool usage

Gate MCP tool calls behind approval.

  • Block servers, tools or system tools
  • Allow only registered servers
  • Allow only registered tools
  • Require approval per tool call
Best for: Teams running agents with MCPStart
Data protectionDetect & redact

Strip sensitive data before the model sees it.

  • Redact emails and SSNs from prompts
  • Mask API keys and tokens
  • Detect secrets in text contents
  • Find names and addresses

Beyond the control point

Three engines
behind the control plane.

Enforcement is the visible part. Three engines run underneath it.

01 · Decision layer

Intelligent Policy Engine

Reasons about session context and policy intent when no rule or regex matches, then applies the configured response.

  • Context from the local agent
  • Block, justify, request access, warn or allow
  • Every decision audited
See it for governance
02 · Insight

Analytics engine

Turns AI activity into a clear view of adoption, output quality and spend, by team and project.

  • Sessions, models and work mix
  • Retained versus reworked AI output
  • Spend, adoption and ROI
See it for leadership
03 · Consistency

Engineering standardisation engine

Gives every developer the same approved skills, rules and project standards in every supported IDE.

  • Cursor, ChatGPT Codex and more
  • Consistent project guidance
  • Shared project memory

Why a control plane

What changes with Tracelet.

Capability
Without a control plane
With Tracelet
Visibility

AI tools appear without a shared inventory.

Enrolled machines and browsers report installed tools and connections.

Access

Shared MCP tokens live in configuration files.

Each user’s credential is fetched from Vault for every MCP call.

Enforcement

Written policy cannot stop an unsafe action.

Block, hold for approval, warn, redact or require a reason before execution.

Evidence

Agent actions are hard to trace to a person.

Every decision logged with its policy and the person behind it.

Rollout

Observe first.
Set policy together.

Start with two weeks of real usage, then shape the first policies around how your team works.

  1. Day 0

    Deploy

    Run Tracelet in your own cloud, before any machines connect.

  2. Day 0–1

    Connect

    Enroll the team’s machines. Keep their existing tools and workflows.

  3. Day 1–14

    Observe

    Build a picture of real AI activity. Nothing is blocked.

  4. Day 15

    Review

    Review findings together and agree what needs a guardrail.

  5. Day 15 onward

    Shape policy

    Draft, simulate and refine the first rule before enabling it.

Observe-onlyDiscover and review. No actions blocked.

Questions answered

What prospective partners ask first.

Short answers, with links to the detail.

  • What does Tracelet control?

    Tracelet applies policy to supported activity from AI coding tools on enrolled machines. Coverage depends on the tool, operating system and action. The coverage table shows which controls apply.

  • Do developers have to change AI tools?

    Tracelet works with supported coding tools already in use. We review your tools and the required integrations before planning a rollout.
