Description

Your team uses AI tools IT never approved: ChatGPT, Copilot, Cursor, local models in Ollama or LM Studio, AI extensions and MCP servers. Shadow AI Guardian scans a Windows PC in a minute, lists every AI tool it finds, scores the risk and maps each one to the EU AI Act. The scan runs on the PC and the findings never leave it. No account needed. Free; paid plans add reports, alerts and a company-wide dashboard. Made in Denmark.

Could you build this?

Partial A basic scanner querying specific paths and processes is straightforward, but detecting stealthy shadow AI across diverse local runtimes, browser extensions, network sockets, and MCP servers on Windows requires systems security engineering.

What it would actually take: Requires a native Windows binary (C#/Rust or C++) utilizing Windows APIs (WMI, Registry, ETW, and Win32 process enumeration) to inspect running processes, open ports, local models (Ollama, LM Studio directories), and browser profiles. The engine must scan and unpack browser extension manifests and local configuration files, matching signatures against a frequently updated shadow AI taxonomy and mapping to EU AI Act compliance tiers. Ensuring low false-positive rates and avoiding Antivirus/EDR heuristics requires Windows systems programming expertise.
