AI Agent Policy Gate

A security layer that enforces policies before AI coding agents execute tool calls. Prevents agents from ignoring best practices and using deprecated APIs. Targets engineering teams deploying coding agents that need guardrails and compliance.

Agentic coding tools like Cursor, Copilot Workspace, and Devin are moving from autocomplete toward autonomous execution, and enterprises adopting them are starting to ask hard questions about what agents are actually allowed to do — making the timing real. No clear incumbent owns this specific layer, though some overlap exists with static analysis tools like Semgrep and emerging agent orchestration platforms that bolt on basic guardrails. The $2k–10k/mo revenue band is plausible for a point solution sold to platform or DevSecOps teams on a per-seat or per-agent basis, assuming the buyer already has agents deployed and just needs governance bolted on. The biggest risk is that major agent platforms — Anthropic, GitHub, Cursor — absorb this natively into their tool-call permission models, collapsing the market before a standalone product can establish stickiness.
