CloudEagle.ai
|
CloudEagle.ai is an AI-powered SaaS Management, AI Governance, and Identity Governance platform that gives IT and Security teams one command center for every SaaS and AI application across the enterprise, including the applications operating outside traditional SSO or IT visibility.AI tools and employee-purchased apps are growing faster thanteams can secure and govern them. A large share of an organization's SaaS and AI footprint sits outside IT's line of sight, while human and non-human identities and unmanaged AI usage drive real risk. Traditional IAM and SaaS management tools were not built for this, so CloudEagle.ai brings discovery, identity governance, SaaS and AI security, and AI usage control together in one continuous platform.CloudEagle.ai detects Shadow IT and Shadow AI through 500+ integrations, browser extensions, and firewall logs, then builds a single source of truth across access, security, usage, and spend. Teams can automate provisioning and deprovisioning beyond the IDP, give employees self-service access for a set time, run continuous access reviews, enforce least-privilege, and bring non-human and privileged identities under central governance.For AI, CloudEagle.ai governs how employees use tools like ChatGPT and Claude, assigns Gen AI risk scores, controls token usage, blocks sensitive data sharing, and redirects users toward approved tools. It also harvests unused licenses and surfaces usage and benchmarking data to make renewals proactive.Underpinning the platform is SaaSMap, a context graph connecting SaaS, identity, and AI data so a decision in one domain informs the others. CloudEagle.ai coexists with existing ITSM, IDP, CLM, and security tools and meets users where they work. It is named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SaaS Management Platforms. | Seed / Apr 10, 2022 | |
