Put governance where AI traffic leaves.

Talon’s gateway is the Talon 2.0 control point: a network chokepoint for LLM calls where policy runs before provider access and every decision becomes signed evidence.

Definition

A Talon-style gateway is not just a proxy.

A proxy forwards traffic. Talon decides whether the request is allowed, whether data must be redacted, which provider posture is acceptable, whether budget remains, and what signed record proves the decision later.

🔐

Govern data before it leaves

PII and data-tier classification happen before the provider call, not only in post-hoc logs.

🇪🇺

Enforce sovereignty posture

EU strict, EU preferred, and global modes make provider jurisdiction a product primitive.

🧾

Generate evidence, not logs

Each request produces a signed record that can be exported and verified.
