🔴 NEW — Shadow Agent Discovery

You Have Agents Running
That Nobody Knows About

Developers spin up AI agents in notebooks, cron jobs, and side projects. Most never get logged. They burn tokens, access data, and create compliance gaps — invisibly. ACP finds them all.

Why Shadow Agents Are Dangerous

Compliance blind spots: Shadow agents access customer data without audit trails. Your SOC 2 report is already wrong.
Runaway costs: A single unmonitored agent in a retry loop burned $14,000 in one weekend. Nobody noticed until the bill arrived.
Data exfiltration: That "helpful" agent an engineer built sends customer context to a third-party API every 30 seconds.
Regulatory exposure: EU AI Act requires a registry of all AI systems. You can't register what you can't see.

How ACP Finds Everything

Network Scan

Detects outbound API calls to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and other LLM providers across your network. No agent-side code needed.

Map & Classify

Identifies the source process, owner, framework, cost, and data access patterns. Classifies as Known, Shadow, or Drifted.

Control or Kill

Bring shadow agents under monitoring with one click — or kill them instantly. Set policies to auto-block new unregistered agents.
