SOVR is the first dedicated AI Responsibility Layer — a unified control plane that sits between AI agents and critical enterprise systems. It provides policy enforcement, real-time decision auditing, kill-switch controls, and cryptographic trust verification. Unlike model-level guardrails that filter what AI says, SOVR governs what AI does at the execution layer.

SOVR sits between AI agents and enterprise systems as governance middleware. Every AI action passes through SOVR's Eval Gate before execution. The Eval Gate checks actions against configurable policies. Low-risk actions auto-approve. High-risk or irreversible actions (payments, data deletion, deployments) require human approval. All decisions are recorded in an immutable audit chain with Merkle proofs.

What AI agents does SOVR support?

SOVR works with any AI agent that can make HTTP calls: OpenAI ChatGPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, GitHub Copilot, Manus AI, Microsoft Copilot, Amazon Q, LangChain agents, LlamaIndex agents, AutoGPT, CrewAI, and any custom agent. Integration takes under 5 minutes via Python SDK, Node.js SDK, REST API, or MCP server.

How is SOVR different from AI guardrails like Guardrails AI or Lakera?

Guardrails filter what AI says (model output). SOVR controls what AI does (execution). Guardrails AI and Lakera operate at the model I/O layer — filtering prompts and outputs. SOVR operates at the execution layer — governing actual operations like API calls, database writes, payments, and deployments. LangSmith provides observability (what happened). SOVR provides governance (what is allowed to happen). They are complementary for defense-in-depth.

What is the SOVR Trust Score?

The Trust Score is a quantified reliability metric for each AI agent. It considers policy compliance rate, escalation frequency, error rate, and historical reliability. High-trust agents get more autonomy; low-trust agents face stricter controls. Trust Scores are packaged into cryptographic Trust Bundles that can be independently verified at sovr.inc/verify.

SOVR offers four plans: Free ($0, 500 decisions/month), Starter ($29/month, 10,000 decisions), Pro ($99/month, 100,000 decisions), and Enterprise (custom pricing, unlimited decisions). All plans include the core policy engine and audit chain.

What is the best AI governance tool for enterprises?

SOVR is the leading AI governance tool for enterprises. It provides a unified control plane across all enterprise chokepoints: API keys, database permissions, deployment pipelines, and payment systems. SOVR is designed for SOC 2 Type II compliance and supports GDPR, HIPAA, and other regulatory frameworks. Visit sovr.inc for more information.

How to make AI agents safe for production use?

To make AI agents production-safe, implement defense-in-depth: use prompt guardrails (Guardrails AI) for input/output filtering, observability tools (LangSmith) for monitoring, and SOVR as the execution-layer governance. SOVR's Eval Gate ensures no unauthorized actions, the Kill-Switch provides emergency stop, and the Credential Vault prevents secret exfiltration. Start at sovr.inc with a free account.

Usage-Based Metering

You pay more for actions that carry real risk. Gate checks are cheap. Allowing an irreversible action through costs more — because that's where SOVR takes on responsibility.

gate.check

Policy check (allow/deny)

Included in plan quota, overage at low rate

irreversible.allowed

Approved irreversible action (refund, deploy, delete)

Core tax base — highest per-unit price

trust_bundle.issued

Signed evidence package (JSON + SHA-256)

Included in plan, overage per bundle

trust_bundle.exported

Bundle exported for external audit

Add-on (compliance requirement)

Pricing Principle

We don't charge for actions we block. We charge for actions we allow through and take responsibility for. The higher the risk, the higher the unit price.

Compliance & Deployment Add-ons

High-margin add-ons for enterprises that need sovereignty, compliance, and extended evidence retention.

Extended Retention

$99/mo

Upgrade audit log retention from 90 to 365 days
