Trust the AI you've put in front of your customers and your data.

SonnyLabs is the security and oversight layer for every AI agent, chatbot and assistant in your business.

What can go wrong

Your AI is a brand new employee with no manager. You wouldn't run your business that way.

AI agents talk to your customers, touch your systems, send your emails and take actions on your behalf. When they go wrong, the company name on the front page is yours. These are the four things that go wrong most often.

Manipulation

A customer tricks your chatbot into giving away another customer’s data

Attackers hide instructions in messages, files, even emails. The chatbot follows them. The next thing you hear about it is from your regulator.

Data leakage

An employee pastes confidential data into an AI tool, and it leaks

It already happened at Samsung. Source code into ChatGPT, used in training, surfaced later. Your data leaves the building and you don’t know it has.

Dangerous actions

An AI agent decides to delete part of your production database

This is not a hypothetical. In 2025 an AI coding assistant deleted a third of a production database. The chat after, in every boardroom, was about who is liable.

No visibility

Your security team has no idea what your AI is actually doing

No logs. No dashboard. No way to investigate. When something does go wrong, there is nothing to look at. That is the situation most teams are in today.

Costly
A single data breach can run into the millions in direct and recovery costs.
Rising
Analysts expect a large share of AI projects to stall over security and governance risk.
Regulated
EU AI Act penalties are among the steepest in tech regulation, set as a share of global revenue.
What SonnyLabs does

Four jobs. One platform. Built for the people who answer the hard questions.

We do not sell you a "firewall for AI" and leave you to figure out the rest. We cover the full lifecycle: testing before launch, watching in production, blocking what shouldn't happen, and proving it later.

1. Test (before launch)

Attack your AI before a real attacker does

Our red team simulates real-world attacks against your AI before it goes live. Manipulation. Data extraction. Role hijacking. Agent abuse. You see exactly where it breaks, so you can fix it before customers find out.

Red team summary, illustrativePre-launch
Hidden instructions in customer messagesSome broke
Personal data extractionSome broke
Role hijack ("pretend you are admin")A few broke
Standard support conversationNone broke
  • A clear report you can share with engineers and leadership
  • Repeat the test after every release to catch regressions
  • Independent from your runtime protection, so the test is honest
2. See (in production)

See everything your AI is doing

Every conversation. Every request. Every action your AI tried to take. On one screen. Searchable. Exportable. Always on.

Activity, last hour (illustrative)blocked flagged
  • A live dashboard your CISO can look at on a Monday morning
  • Every event timestamped, attributable, replayable
  • Plugs into the security tools you already use
3. Stop (in real time)

Stop the things you don't want to happen

Manipulation attempts on the way in. Dangerous actions on the way out. Both blocked before they reach your customers or your systems.

BlockedHidden instruction in a customer email
BlockedAI tried to delete production records
FlaggedCustomer credit card about to leave the model
BlockedAttempt to read sensitive system files
  • Manipulation, jailbreaks and hidden instructions
  • Dangerous tool calls and risky actions
  • Confidential data and PII leaving the model
4. Prove (to anyone)

Prove it to anyone who asks

Your auditor. Your board. The buyer's security team. The EU AI Act. The vendor questionnaire you've been dragging your feet on.

How it works

A safety check between your customers and your AI. And between your AI and your systems.

Think of SonnyLabs as airport security for your AI. It checks what is going in. It checks what is coming out. It keeps a record. It is invisible to the people who should be there, and stops the people who should not.

1

Something arrives at your AI

A customer message. A document the AI is asked to read. An email forwarded to the assistant.

2

SonnyLabs checks it in milliseconds

Is it a manipulation attempt? Is there a hidden instruction in there? Is sensitive data leaving? The decision is made in the blink of an eye.

3

The right thing happens, with a human in the loop when it matters

Clean traffic flows through. Dangerous traffic is stopped. Ambiguous, high-stakes cases are escalated to a human. Every decision is logged.

From a real customer conversation

“My biggest problem is working out what guardrails I can put in place, and how I can get any kind of visibility about what is going in and what is coming out. The accidental side scares me more than the malicious one.”

Head of IT Security, university
What this means for you

You can finally answer the question every board is asking: what is our AI doing right now, and can we stop it if we need to. Yes, and yes.

The principle behind it

Zero trust, applied to AI.

The same idea your network team already uses on every connection. Never trust by default. Always verify. Log everything. We extend zero trust to the AI layer. Treat the prompt as untrusted. Treat the AI as untrusted. Treat the next action as untrusted. Verify each one before it can do harm.

A framework your CISO already buys for. Now extended to the part of the stack that did not have it.

Never trust the prompt

Anything an AI is being asked to do is verified before the model sees it. Customer messages, emails, documents, scraped web pages. All treated as untrusted by default.

Never trust the AI

The model itself is treated as an untrusted actor. Its outputs are checked. Its tool calls are checked. Just because the AI wants to do something does not mean it is safe to let it.

Verify every action

Each action the AI tries to take is evaluated against your policy. Allowed, blocked, or escalated to a human. No implicit permission to act on your systems.

Log everything

Every decision recorded. Every event attributable. Continuous verification, not a one-off check at the door.

What we protect

Every AI you've put in front of a customer. Or behind your firewall. Or anywhere in between.

Customer chatbots

The support bot on your homepage. The conversational AI in your app. The first thing a hacker tries to break.

AI agents that take actions

Agents that send emails, run reports, write to databases, move money, schedule meetings. The ones that can do real damage if they go wrong.

Internal AI copilots

The HR assistant. The sales copilot. The finance bot. Anywhere employees ask AI questions that touch sensitive data.

AI tools connected to your systems

When AI plugs into your CRM, your database, your inbox or your file server, we make sure it only does what it should.

In their own words

We didn't write this. The people we've spoken to did.

Verbatim quotes from real conversations with security leaders, AI builders and operating teams across healthcare, manufacturing, finance, education and the public sector.

The indirect stuff really got me. If we plug into a database and there is something malicious done on that side, it’s a back-door effect we hadn’t thought about.
CEO
Manufacturing AI company
I was really worried about the security risk of using AI in schools. With SonnyLabs the integration was extremely fast, took 5 minutes, and now I’m reassured my AI is safe and secure.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about SonnyLabs

Yes to all. The integration is via our API/SDK or open source MCP.

It takes 5 mins to integrate with our API.

You can call the API directly or you can self-host it.

It depends on your usecase and what you're optimising for. If you're optimising for speed, the detection is real-time and takes under 50 milliseconds. If you're optimising for accuracy, it depends on the length of the text that you are scanning- for example, scanning an entire 80,000 word book takes on average 1 minute.
