Vantio draws the line between agent capability and authority

Organizations want agents that can do more real work. Vantio exists so that extra capability does not arrive as unlimited authority over infrastructure, data paths, or budgets. The line we draw is simple: more autonomy, with control you can enforce.

Capability is not the same as authority

A capable agent can write, call tools, move money, and reach other systems. Authority is the permission to do those things without a bound you chose. Vantio is the infrastructure control layer that keeps those two ideas apart. Humans set the direction. Agents do the work. You keep the keys.

Four planes, four jobs

Optics observes supported agent traffic. It shows where that traffic connects. It does not store prompts or completions, and it does not block.

Gate applies the rules you set on the supported agent path. When an agent crosses a line you already set, Gate can refuse a destination, strip sensitive details before they leave, or put a hard limit on spend. You can preview those rules before they go live. Gate is $499 per month after a trial you start at hello@vantio.ai.

Phantom Engine protects Linux hosts you enroll. If the application path is skipped or never sees the call, control still sits on the machine you own. Phantom Engine is $799 per governed node per month. Patent pending.

Enterprise governs on top of that protection. It adds the evidence, audit records, and dual-control people need to stay accountable. That path is talk to sales.

What stays with people

Formal certifications remain a separate program. None are held today. Framework status lives on vantio.ai/compliance. Phantom Engine covers Linux you enroll. It is not a promise that every machine, everywhere, is already under Vantio.

The aim is not weaker agents. The aim is agents that can do more, while the people who own the systems still hold the keys. Start free with Optics. Read the suite on vantio.ai.
