Pass the bank’s AI security review without a six-month build
Your enterprise customers will send a security questionnaire before they let your AI agents near their data. KeyForge is the control plane that lets you answer “yes” to credential isolation, audit-log integrity, and in-VPC deployment — today, not next quarter.

The 48-question security questionnaire
Your agent reviews transaction narratives for SAR-filing obligations, and your three largest regional-bank customers want a security architecture review before they expand to production. The CISO’s questionnaire asks about key isolation per agent, audit-log integrity guarantees, and deploying the inference pipeline inside the bank’s private cloud. You have 30 days to answer “yes” to all three — or lose the deal.
Every workaround, replaced by an enforced control
Per-agent credential isolation
Each agent authenticates with a scoped vk_ virtual key. Real provider credentials stay encrypted in the vault and are injected server-side, so a compromised agent leaks a capped, revocable token — not your provider account. Replaces the half-built internal credential vault.
Tamper-evident audit-log integrity
Every request is HMAC-signed and hash-chained to the previous entry. Any insertion, deletion, or edit breaks the chain and is detectable with one verify command. Replaces mutable S3 + CloudWatch logs that won’t survive a forensic review.
Deploy inside your own cloud
KeyForge is self-hostable in your VPC or fully air-gapped. Secrets, audit evidence, and traffic never leave your boundary — the exact answer the bank’s CISO is looking for on question 31.
Hard spend caps & data residency
Per-key dollar ceilings halt runaway spend before it reaches the provider, and per-key origin allowlists refuse traffic to disallowed model origins — with a certificate proving where your data did and did not go.
Answer the questionnaire with evidence
The three questions that stall most fintech AI deals — and how KeyForge lets you answer them.
Key isolation per agent?
Yes — every agent gets its own scoped, revocable vk_ key; real credentials never touch agent code.
Audit-log integrity guarantees?
Yes — HMAC hash-chained entries with one-command verification and shareable signed reports.
Deploy inside our private cloud?
Yes — self-hostable in your VPC or air-gapped, with no dependency on our SaaS.
Have the answer before the deal depends on it
The expansion deal is worth far more than the control plane that unlocks it. KeyForge turns “we’ll get back to you” into a same-week “yes” on the security review.
