Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Gaming Purchase Comparator.

  1. 01

    Compare buy vs subscribe

  2. 02

    Evaluate dlc necessity

    This capability determines if a specific DLC is a good value. It uses your expected playtime to see if the extra cost makes sense for you.

  3. 03

    Get edition comparison

    This capability compares different game editions like Standard or Ultimate. It finds the best value by looking at the content provided versus your expected hours of play.

  4. 04

    Calculate acquisition cost

    This capability finds the total cost of getting a game. It includes hidden expenses like mandatory multiplayer subscriptions that aren't in the base price.

03

DLC Decision Making

04

Total Cost Calculation

Find the real price of a game by including necessary online service fees.
