membrAIn eliminates the only thing standing between your organization and the AI tools that actually matter — the security, compliance, and governance gap that keeps IT saying no while employees go around them anyway.
The AI adoption gap is not about willingness — it's about trust. Your team wants Claude, GPT-4o, and Gemini. Your organization's best performers are already using them on personal accounts, in browser sessions that IT cannot see, sending prompts that contain company data to providers that have no contractual relationship with your organization.
Meanwhile, IT and legal are saying no to the official request. Not because AI isn't valuable — the data on that is unambiguous — but because there is no governance layer. No audit trail. No DLP protection. No way to prove compliance to a regulator who asks what happened.
The result: the security-conscious organization falls behind. The employees work around it. The data leaks anyway. And when something goes wrong, there is no evidence chain to investigate it.
membrAIn is a cloud-hosted API gateway that sits between your LLM SDKs and every AI provider. Your developers change one environment variable. Everything else — DLP scanning, threat detection, Ed25519 lineage chain, audit log, cost attribution, compliance documentation — happens automatically at the gateway, before any message reaches a model.
No agent to install. No MDM required. No code changes beyond a single env var. Works on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Docker, CI/CD, and serverless — because it is just a URL, and every platform that makes an HTTPS request works with it.
The AI Gateway is a TypeScript Cloudflare Worker that runs on Cloudflare's global edge network across 300+ locations. Every AI call is proxied, DLP-scanned, and signed into the audit chain before it reaches a provider. Shadow-AI visibility is delivered by the browser-based Web Agent — it watches navigation across 101 AI domains and captures a dual signal (page visit plus prompt submission) with no DNS or network change required.
Every competitor monitors traffic or secures the channel. None deliver a per-account Ed25519 audit chain where every event is cryptographically signed, hash-chained, and verifiable offline by the customer without access to your infrastructure.

membrAIn's architecture was designed to meet the requirements of regulated environments — healthcare, financial services, legal, government contractors — where AI governance is not optional and the cost of a violation is measured in seven figures.
EU AI Act: Prohibited-practice and GPAI rules are in force (fines up to €35M or 7% of global revenue). Annex III high-risk obligations apply from December 2027. membrAIn's auto-generated Article 11 technical documentation, audit log, and human oversight mechanisms directly address the obligations for organizations deploying AI in employment, healthcare, financial services, or critical infrastructure.
HIPAA: The DLP engine blocks or redacts PHI (including DOB, MRN, NPI, and 12 other identifiers) before any prompt reaches a model provider. Every interaction is logged with a HIPAA-compliant audit trail that satisfies §164.312(b) requirements.
PLATFORM 100–1,000 SEATS: $150K–$500K/YR · ENTERPRISE OEM 1,000+ SEATS: $500K–$2M + ROYALTIES
Enterprise workers using AI save 40–60 minutes per day. At a loaded hourly cost of $65, that's $2,708–$4,062 per employee per year in recovered productivity — for every employee who gains access to governed AI tools. membrAIn for a 50-person team with 3 integrations costs approximately $3,456/month. The productivity value of 50 employees gaining AI access is $135,000–$203,000/year. Before token savings, incident avoidance, or compliance cost reduction.
The more accurate framing: what is the cost of the next AI-related compliance violation? A single HIPAA violation averages $50,000–$1.9M. A GDPR enforcement action for undocumented AI processing: up to €35M. A data breach from shadow AI: industry average $4.88M (IBM 2024). membrAIn's annual cost at any tier is a fraction of any one of those outcomes.
