Inviolet is the Intent Detection and Response (IDR) platform — every prompt declares an intention, every action runs through a layered policy, and every credential is brokered short-lived against your existing PAM. This is the technical documentation; for product overviews and pricing, see inviolet.ai.

Quickstart

Zero to a governed tool call in five minutes.

Concepts

What Intent Detection and Response (IDR) is, why it matters, and where it sits in your stack.

SDKs

Node, framework wrappers, Python, and REST clients for the Inviolet gateway.

Tier comparison

Violet, Deep Violet, and Ultraviolet — what each tier unlocks.

​
Three minutes to your first governed call

  1. Install the SDK for your stack — Anthropic, OpenAI, fetch, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or MCP.
  2. Create an intent card in the Gallery — name the purpose, scope the columns, set the response strategy.
  3. Guard your agent with new Inviolet({ gatewayUrl, apiKey, agentId }) — mintMandate() at the start of a session, then guard() every tool call.
That’s it. Open the dashboard and watch your first decision flow through the cascade in real time. Full walkthrough in the Quickstart.

​
Why IDR?

Traditional access control asks “who is calling?”. Modern agents need a sharper question: “under what intention?”. IDR is the architecture that makes “intention” a first-class signal — observable, enforceable, brokered. The 5 Principles are the doctrine. Every API endpoint, every SDK wrapper, every dashboard tile traces back to one of them.

​
The 5 Principles, in 30 seconds

  1. Learn the intent behind every prompt. No declared intent → no action.
  2. Test before enforcing. Every policy can run shadow → enforce.
  3. Least access as the system learns. Column-grain, not connection; the gray zone routes to a human.
  4. Agents never touch credentials. Inviolet brokers a short-lived lease against your PAM.
  5. Impossible to bypass. Every path covered and proven — SWG egress, every LLM host, bypass-tested in CI.
Each principle maps 1:1 onto one of the five levels of the maturity model. Read the full doctrine in The 5 Principles.
