Relyance AI
San Mateo, California, United States
What it is
Relyance AI’s Lyo platform is designed for enterprise teams securing and governing data across code, cloud services, and AI models. It traces data journeys and inventories AI agents, models, RAG, and MCP, showing permission reach and enabling CI/CD blocking of over-scoped agents. Its data security layer classifies sensitive information, monitors it in motion, and describes adaptive DLP enforcement at gateways. Privacy workflows automate data maps, records of processing activities, consent, assessments, and data subject requests using live data flows. A Data Exposure Graph links data sensitivity, identity permissions, and agent behavior to surface connected risks. The company describes agentless coverage across code, cloud, warehouses, identity providers, AI platforms, SaaS, and observability, naming integrations such as GitHub, AWS, Snowflake, Okta, OpenAI, Salesforce, and Datadog. Deployment options include full SaaS, InHost inside a customer VPC, and DirectConnect private link. Runtime decisions to allow, redact, mask, narrow, escalate, or block requests are marked private beta. Pricing is on request, with a trial subject to eligibility criteria.
