KonaSense
KonaSense provides a unified governance platform that secures AI interactions across browsers and coding agents. The platform classifies prompts in real time, redacts sensitive data before it leaves the device, and enforces pre-execution policies on agent actions like shell commands and file operations. All governed events are cryptographically signed with ECDSA envelopes for tamper-resistant audit evidence.

Problem
Enterprises lack visibility and control over how employees use GenAI tools and how AI coding agents execute actions. Shadow AI usage leads to data leakage of PII, secrets, and source code, while autonomous agents can execute shell commands, modify files, and call external APIs without proper governance, creating compliance and security risks.
Solution
Kona provides a unified governance platform securing every AI interaction across browsers and coding agents. For browser use, a managed Chrome and Edge extension classifies each prompt in real time, redacts sensitive data before it leaves the device, and coaches users toward safer behavior. For AI coding agents, Kona inspects every action before execution, filters tool responses before they reach model context, and applies deterministic policy rules. All governed events are cryptographically signed with ECDSA envelopes, creating tamper-resistant, replayable evidence for audits and incident investigations.
Target Audience
Primary customers are CISOs, security, governance, and compliance teams in enterprises where employees use GenAI tools and developers run AI coding agents, as well as organizations with agentic pipelines requiring audit-ready governance.
Features
- Browser extension covering 50+ GenAI tools including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot with real-time prompt classification, redaction, and coaching
- Pre-execution policy enforcement for coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex CLI) covering shell commands, file operations, web fetches, and MCP calls
- Cryptographic integrity via ECDSA-signed event envelopes providing tamper-resistant evidence, device identity, and non-repudiation
- Contextual detection combining pattern, semantic, and classifier-based methods with AI arbitration only when signals conflict, minimizing false positives
- Agent delegation visibility capturing every sub-worker, its identity, and each tool call with per-action decisions, reconstructing the full execution chain rather than agent-provided summaries
- No proxy, no resident process on developer machines; policies live in a central control plane and apply to all supported agents within minutes
- Actions escalate to human reviewers for high-risk operations; fail-open design ensures developers are never blocked when the control plane is unreachable
- Full session replay capability for audit, including conversation logs, command outputs, and policy decisions feeding SIEM systems
