Trust
What a reviewer can actually check.
If your job is to decide whether Vantio belongs inside your environment, start here. Every claim below is either something you can verify yourself once the software is installed, or something we are telling you plainly that we have not done yet. There is no third category.
The enterprise authority plane for autonomous systems. AI can reason and act. Vantio determines what it is authorized to do, enforces those boundaries where supported, verifies the result, and preserves the evidence.
What we do with your data
Vantio records security and connection metadata, not prompts or completions. That is a product property, not a setting you have to remember to turn on. There is no prompt warehouse to breach, subpoena, or accidentally train on.
Optics records the destination, process, timing, volume, and trace for supported agent and model calls. It never stores prompts or completions, and it never blocks a request.
Gate records the decision it made and why, so you can answer whether an action was permitted without keeping the content of the request. Phantom Engine keeps host-level records on the Linux machines you enroll. Enterprise correlates all of it into evidence a reviewer can read months later.
Your authority stays yours
Your agents. Your infrastructure. Your authority. Vantio makes it enforceable. We are the enforcement mechanism for decisions you make, and we designed the product so you can walk away from us without losing what you built.
- You own the policy. Vantio does not decide what your agents are for.
- You set the level of autonomy, and you can turn it down at any time.
- You can revoke a capability, and the enforcement point stops honoring it.
- You can export the evidence and take it with you.
- There is no hidden Vantio remote override on your infrastructure.
- Independent safety systems keep the authority they were designed with. Vantio does not replace an interlock, an e-stop, or a local controller.
Where coverage ends
A control you believe in but do not have is worse than no control at all, so here is the honest edge of what Vantio reaches.
- Optics and Gate cover supported wrapped application paths. A process that skips the wrap, opens a raw socket, uses curl, or forks away can egress without a record.
- Gate does not mediate every browser, SaaS, socket, or tool path. The unsupported paths are documented rather than implied away.
- Phantom Engine applies only to the Linux hosts you enroll. Windows and macOS host control are not available.
- Vantio does not claim universal agent discovery.
- Certification alignment is not the same as certification held.
- Vantio has not yet completed an install validated by an independent operator on infrastructure Vantio does not run.
Vantio holds no certifications today. Certification alignment is not the same as certification held, and authorization programs like FedRAMP and CMMC run as separate external processes.
We run our own enterprise on the same authority platform.
Vantio Enterprise is our internal production tenant. It runs the company's own autonomous operations under Optics, Gate, and Phantom Engine, on a Vantio-operated environment we call the root cell. That gives us real evidence about how the platform behaves under real work.
This is dogfood proof. It shows that we trust the platform enough to run the company on it. It is not a customer deployment, it is not an independent audit, and it does not stand in for validation on infrastructure Vantio does not operate.
Vantio-operated environment
What that proof does not cover:
- No customer deployment has been independently validated.
- No design partner has run this on their own infrastructure yet.
- Certifications and authorizations are separate programs and are not held.
- Robotics, drone, industrial, and vehicle deployment do not exist.
Where to go next
Each of these answers a different question a review usually asks. Take them in whatever order your process needs.
Security
How the authority chain works, where enforcement actually lands, and which paths stay outside it.
Compliance
Framework-by-framework status, what evidence you can export today, and which programs are still open.
Product evidence
The operational numbers from the environment Vantio runs its own company on, labeled for what they are.
Report a vulnerability
Where to send a finding, what is in scope, and what happens after you send it.
Privacy
How Vantio handles personal data on the website and in the products.
Terms
The terms that govern using Vantio software and services.
Compatibility matrix
Every runtime, framework, and host combination with its real status. Named residuals stay named.
Questions we get during review
- Does Vantio store agent prompts or completions?
- Vantio records security and connection metadata, not prompts or completions.
- Can a customer revoke a capability after it has been issued?
- You can revoke a capability, and the enforcement point stops honoring it.
- Which machines can Phantom Engine control?
- Phantom Engine applies only to the Linux hosts you enroll. Windows and macOS host control are not available.
- Does Vantio hold any certifications today?
- Vantio holds no certifications today. Certification alignment is not the same as certification held, and authorization programs like FedRAMP and CMMC run as separate external processes.
- Is the evidence Vantio publishes from a customer deployment?
- This is dogfood proof. It shows that we trust the platform enough to run the company on it. It is not a customer deployment, it is not an independent audit, and it does not stand in for validation on infrastructure Vantio does not operate.
Bring us the environment you actually have
If something here does not line up with your requirements, tell us which part. We would rather name a gap early than discover it during your assessment. Optics is free if you would like to see what your agents are doing before you talk to anyone.
