Productionizing agents is hard

Humans are often overprovisioned, and replicating that for agents can be disastrous

Humans work on the scale of wall clock time and waking hours, while agents move faster and don’t stop

Agents may or may not follow controls applied in prompting and are vulnerable to prompt injection

Common failure modes for agents

Impotent agents: agents that are so secure that they’re useless

Pilot purgatory: agents that never leave beta

Human-is-the-loop: agents that ask permission so often that humans become the workflow engine

What is Oso for Agents?

Oso for Agents is what engineering teams use when they want to productionize agents. It gives you a path to automated least privilege, with deterministic permissions that adjust based on behavior and context.

Let Oso be your red team: automate simulations before going live

Get visibility into your production agents with real-time monitoring and alerting

Define access controls deterministically, so each agent gets only the permissions they need for the task at hand
