ZeroDrift
ZeroDrift enforces compliance in agent communications.
ZeroDrift is the Enforcement Runtime for AI. AI now speaks and acts on behalf of organizations, at machine speed, across every tool and channel. Every one of those companies runs on rules: regulations, internal policies, security controls. Nothing enforces those rules on what AI does. That infrastructure has not existed. ZeroDrift is that infrastructure. Every regulation, pre-loaded. Your policies, trained on top. Enforced on everything AI says, before it ships. Each message is passed, rewritten, blocked, or escalated in real time, with examiner-ready evidence for every verdict. We start with compliance and policy enforcement on AI communications, where the cost of a violation is highest. From there, the runtime expands to every policy a company writes and everything AI hears, sees, and does. One runtime, every AI surface.
