Porcia
Use Case

Your team adopted AI faster than anyone could govern it.

Porcia surfaces AI tools and agents through connected sources — showing who is associated with them, what OAuth access they have, and where review may be needed.

The problem

AI adoption inside companies didn't wait for policy. Nearly 700 new AI apps reached the workplace in a single year, and most companies now run at least one — almost none of it reviewed first. Employees started using AI assistants the moment they became useful — pasting work into chatbots, wiring up coding copilots, connecting AI agents to their email and documents.

The risk isn't just that you don't have an inventory. It's that AI tools reach deeper than typical SaaS. A single OAuth grant can give an AI agent standing access to a user's inbox or drive. A single employee using AI can spin up dozens of machine identities — agents and integrations acting on their behalf, around the clock. Sensitive data flows into models you've never reviewed, and it's all invisible to the security tooling you already have.

You can't write a sensible AI policy for tools you can't see. Visibility has to come first.

How Porcia solves it

AI tools surfaced by connected sources

Porcia can surface tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and AI features inside products through connected workspace email, SSO, browser, and optional desktop signals. Coverage depends on the sources you enable.

See available usage signals by user

Where connected sources provide usage signals, understand which teams use AI tools, which tools are spreading, and where adoption is concentrated — so governance follows evidence, not guesswork.

Map the non-human identities AI creates

Every AI agent or assistant that connects through OAuth or an API becomes a non-human identity inside your stack — one that can read email, touch files, or act on a user's behalf, around the clock. Porcia surfaces these connections and what each one can actually reach.

Catch risky AI before data walks out the door

An AI tool with broad OAuth scopes into your email or drive is a data exposure waiting to happen. Porcia flags high-risk AI grants so you can review them before something sensitive gets shared.

Common questions

Shadow AI is any AI tool, assistant, or agent adopted by employees without going through IT or security review. It ranges from someone pasting customer data into a personal ChatGPT account to an AI agent granted broad access to your Google Workspace through an OAuth connection.
When Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 and identity sources are connected with the required authorization, available email signals may show signup confirmations, receipts, OAuth consents, and logins. Optional browser and desktop signals can add usage context. What Porcia surfaces depends on the sources you connect.
Yes. For AI tools connected via OAuth, Porcia shows the specific scopes granted — whether a tool can read email, access files, or act on a user's behalf. High-risk grants are flagged so you can prioritize review.
No. Porcia is a visibility and governance layer, not a blocker. It shows you what AI is in use and where the risk is, so you can set sensible policy — approve the good tools, review the questionable ones, and remove access where it doesn't belong.
Yes — to the extent they connect through OAuth or an API. Every AI agent or integration granted access becomes a non-human identity operating in your stack, often with standing permission to sensitive data. Porcia surfaces those connections and the scopes behind them.
AI tools spread faster and reach deeper than typical SaaS. They're adopted individually, often connect into systems holding sensitive data, and a single OAuth grant can expose far more than a standalone app. The urgency and data-exposure stakes are higher.
