Shadow AI · the unmanaged insider risk

Know what your team feeds into AI. Prove it to your auditors.

Your employees are pasting client data, contracts and code into ChatGPT, Copilot and Gemini — through personal accounts you can't see. Shadowproof discovers it, flags the sensitive stuff, and gives you the audit trail to prove to clients and regulators that you're in control. Built for firms that can't afford a leak.

The problem

You're already liable for AI you can't see.

Enterprise tools (Cisco, Palo Alto, CrowdStrike) lock this behind $50K+/yr contracts and a procurement process you don't have. The 25-person law firm, the accounting practice, the clinic — the businesses with the most to lose from a client-data leak — are left with two options: hire a consultant for $5K, or do nothing. Shadowproof is the third option.

How it works

Discover. Flag. Prove.

01 · Discover

See every AI tool in use

From your existing DNS / firewall logs — no deep network surgery. Which tools, which people, how much, ranked by the sensitivity of what's flowing.

02 · Flag

Catch the sensitive data

Pattern-matched detection of PII, secrets and client identifiers heading into prompts — log-only or block. The CISO-grade controls, sized for an SMB.

03 · Prove

The audit trail clients ask for

An append-only record of every AI interaction — exportable to PDF/CSV. When a client or regulator asks "what data went into AI last quarter," you have the answer.

Why me
"I'm a security engineer, not a dashboard company. I built this because every SMB I talked to was one careless paste away from a breach they'd never even detect — and the only tools that solve it are priced for the Fortune 500."

How exposed are you right now?

Five honest questions — no scan, no signup, just your own answers. You'll get a rough read in seconds.

Do your staff use ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini for work?
Through personal accounts — not a company-managed plan?
Do they handle client PII, financial, health, or legal data?
Could you produce a log of what data went into AI tools last quarter?
Are you in a regulated field — legal, finance, healthcare, gov?
Straight answers

The questions you're already asking.

Isn't this just another dashboard?

No. Every AI-observability tool out there is built for developers tracing "spans" and "tokens." Shadowproof answers one question in plain English — what client data is leaving, and can you prove it? — for the owner, not the engineer.

Do I have to install something scary?

No agent rebuild, no network surgery. Discovery reads your existing DNS / firewall logs, read-only. You see what's flowing before you change a single setting.

Why now, not next year?

The NYT v. OpenAI ruling forced indefinite retention of ChatGPT logs. Anything your staff has pasted in is now retained somewhere you don't control — and a client's discovery request can reach it. The exposure is already on the clock.

What does it cost?

Founder early-access pricing, then $300–500/mo when it ships — a fraction of the $50K+/yr enterprise tools, and without their procurement gauntlet. Built deliberately for firms that aren't the Fortune 500.
