What that means

The sovereign context layer for enterprise AI

Sovereign

Runs entirely in your environment. Your data and your index never leave.

Context layer

One permission-aware index across every system, scoped to whoever is asking.

Enterprise AI

Search, copilots, and agents all draw from the same governed source.

Atolio’s approach

Built for a secure, efficient, agentic enterprise

  • Cost efficient

    One unified index and fewer, more refined tool calls reduce token use by up to 80%. The model gets top results across all your systems, not top results from each system to then burn tokens sorting through.

    Where savings come from
  • Secure

    Self-hosted in your cloud or on-prem, under your IAM and keys. Permissions enforced on every query, for people, service accounts, and agent identities.

    Protect your organization
  • Observable

    A live inventory of every agent, one audit trail with trace and lineage, central kill switches, and spend attributed in real time per user and per agent.

How it works

One governed layer between your data and your AI

Atolio is a sovereign context layer: a single, permission-aware index of all your company’s knowledge that runs fully inside your own environment, and gives every AI search, tool, and agent only the context it needs - and is allowed to see - to finish the job.

Connects to all the systems you run and the AI you already use

Native connectors for every tool your teams uses. For fast-changing data, Atolio fetches live over MCP under the same permissions. Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini draw from the same governed layer through MCP or API.

The cost problem

Every agent you add raises the bill, and the risk

Every agent gets wired to your systems one integration at a time, each with its own credentials and permission logic. Your token bill climbs with every system you connect, and nobody can say which agents exist or what they can reach. With token consumption growing 24x by 2030¹, that’s a bill and a liability no company is prepared for.

Five costs that grow with every agent

And how Atolio takes each one off the bill.

Cost 01 · The problem

Tokens spent searching

Agents query, read, retry, and pay for every pass.

How Atolio fixes it

Fewer tokens per answer

Atolio retrieves once, from one index. No exploration loop.

steps

  1. Cost 02

    Your team, at agent scale

    Every agent adds access requests, per system. Your team stays the same size.

    How Atolio fixes it

    Less admin work

    Agents inherit the permissions you already have. No second set to maintain.

  2. Cost 03

    Growing breach risk

    Broad standing access, copied content, and web search as an exit path.

    How Atolio fixes it

    Lower exposure

    Everything stays in your environment. Policy applies before an agent acts.

  3. Cost 04

    Agents nobody can account for

    Teams build the same agent twice. Spend shows up on the invoice.

    How Atolio fixes it

    No duplicate spend

    A live inventory of every agent, its owner, and its cost.

  4. Cost 05

    Locked to one model’s pricing

    One provider’s prices, outages, and roadmap.

    How Atolio fixes it

    Any model, no rebuild

    Switch models without re-indexing.

    Security

    Your data, your perimeter, your keys

    Atolio deploys in your AWS, Azure, or GCP account, or on-prem on Red Hat OpenShift, and it can run air-gapped. It runs under your IAM policies and encryption keys. Nothing gets copied out to make it searchable.

    • Your cloud or on-prem

    • Air-gap capable

    • Your IAM, keys, and SSO

    • Permissions on every query

    • Policy on every tool call

    • Model and identity agnostic

    Observability and audit

    See every agent, what it touches, and what it costs

    Every call routes through one enforcement point, so the audit trail builds itself as agents run. Agents built in code, in low-code tools, or on other vendors’ platforms all show up in the same view.

    • Track every agent across all AI interfaces in one inventory, with status, risk, access, and cost for each.

    • A running record of every read, block, and budget breach an agent triggers. When one drifts out of bounds, edit its policy or quarantine it in one click.

    • Control which agents each team can invoke, with owner, health, and usage in one view. Revoke one group without shutting the agent down for everyone.
