Clawvisor

Authorization gateway for AI agents

NEW

Clawvisor is an open-core API gateway that provides purpose-based authorization for AI agents. It sits between an agent and the tools it uses, enforcing least-privilege access by binding permissions to a declared task, injecting short-lived credentials at call time, and maintaining a full audit trail of every action taken. The platform supports self-hosted and managed cloud deployments and is designed to work with any agent framework without requiring changes to agent code.

Permit.io

Full-stack authorization as a service

Permit.io is a full-stack authorization-as-a-service platform that enables developers to integrate fine-grained access control into any application without rebuilding permissions infrastructure from scratch. The platform supports RBAC, ABAC, and ReBAC models through a no-code policy editor, and generates policy as code based on OPA's Rego or AWS Cedar. Built on open-source foundations including the OPAL project, Permit.io uses a hybrid model where all authorization decisions are made locally with zero latency, while remaining compliant with HIPAA and SOC2.
