Enterprise AI agents with

Security.Security.

Partners sponsor houses, cohorts, and content that turns ambition into shipped work. You meet builders early, before the demo day headlines.

Campuses, brands, and backers join when they want a repeatable pipeline: applications in, demos out, stories published. We keep the community layer independent and clear about roles.

The Foundry sits between your agent and the apps it needs to reach. The agent asks for a tool. The Foundry decides which account applies, whether the request is permitted, and makes the call itself.

Your developers never handle a raw credential, and the model never sees one.

Governance here means two concrete things: who is allowed to do what, and what actually happened.

Permissions are set administratively, per user and per role, down to the individual action. An admin can leave Slack connected and switch off channel creation, or allow Gmail reads and drafts while removing deletes. Those rules are evaluated in the request path, before the model is involved, so they hold whatever the prompt says and whatever a user tries to inject.

Audit is the other half. Every tool call is logged with the user, team, tool, action and outcome, denied calls included, with payload retention configured per project. That is the difference between believing an agent behaved and being able to show it.

For the wider framework, including shadow AI, build versus buy, and the questions worth putting to a vendor during an RFP, read the enterprise AI agent management and governance guide.

The Foundry is SOC 2 Type II certified. Credentials are stored with AES-256 encryption and isolated from your application code and from the LLM context. That isolation is how the system is built rather than a setting somebody has to remember to switch on.

Identity connects to the directory you already run. Single sign-on is available over SAML and OIDC with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID and Google Workspace, and SCIM 2.0 maps directory groups to teams, so joiners and leavers follow the same path as the rest of your stack.

Self-hosting is available at the Enterprise tier, for teams whose infrastructure, network or data-residency requirements mean the action layer has to run inside their own environment.

The Foundry ships more than many managed app integrations covering the specific operations agents need in production, not a single passthrough per service. GitHub, Slack, Salesforce, Gmail, Jira, Outlook, HubSpot, Notion and several hundred more.

Breadth is what decides the pace of enterprise AI adoption, because the pilot is never the whole roadmap. The second team wants a different app and the third wants two. With a managed layer, adding one is a configuration step rather than a quarter of engineering, and the auth, policy and audit story your security team already signed off applies to it on day one.

The layer is model agnostic. Change provider or agent framework and the tools, credentials and policies carry over unchanged.

Several of the largest agent products already run on it. AWS Quick embeds the The Foundry SDK in its own runtime, every third-party action a Glean Agent Builder agent takes runs through The Foundry, and Zoom Mate turns a conversation into the booked meeting or the updated ticket without leaving Zoom. Runner, a desktop agent with write access to a dozen tools at once, has proxied more than two million Slack API calls with no mid-task reauthentication. Read the case studies.
