Attack-led AI security testing and red teaming
Agent-native reconnaissance maps models, agents, tools, instructions, permissions and behaviours the way an attacker would before launching attacks.
Continuous, adaptive testing of AI agents and systems against evolving attack techniques, rather than one-off audits.
Findings are backed by a knowledge base built from more than 175 publicly disclosed AI vulnerabilities across major AI systems.
Runtime protections and remediation guidance help close defensive gaps and verify that fixes actually hold.

Bring WhatsApp, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Telegram, email and web chat into one shared inbox so no customer thread gets lost between apps.
AI agents qualify leads, answer routine questions, route to the right teammate and follow up automatically when conversations go quiet.
Track tags, custom fields, lead status and lifecycle stage per contact, and move deals through a pipeline without a separate CRM.
Reach thousands of customers with one message, and capture new leads directly from social ads and website links.
