Description

Two products, one detection engine. Shield is a reverse proxy you point DNS at: real people and verified search engines pass, scrapers and the AI training crawlers you choose are blocked. Every check is capped at 50 ms and fails open, so it can never take your site down. Watchdog is an API your AI agents call before acting on untrusted input: allow, flag or block with the reason, plus a per-agent mission that stops anything outside its scope. One feed shows both. Free tier, no card.

Could you build this?

No Building an inline, globally distributed reverse proxy that reliably classifies bots and detects prompt injection within a strict 50ms budget requires deep networking, low-latency edge systems engineering, and dedicated security research.

What it would actually take: A production version requires an anycast edge network (e.g., Cloudflare Workers or custom Rust/Go Envoy proxies), high-performance IP and behavioral fingerprinting tables, and optimized ML inference (ONNX/TensorRT) for real-time prompt injection detection. The hard parts are maintaining near-zero false-positive rates for real users and crawler compliance without introducing latency or SPOF vulnerabilities. It demands seasoned security researchers and high-throughput distributed systems engineers.
