Endpoint AI Usage Control: see, stop and govern AI use

Get picks like this daily. Today's launch numbers, the top launches, AI and tech news, and a daily opportunity pick, straight to your inbox.

AIBound is endpoint AI Usage Control (AIUC). It discovers the AI running on your devices, including agents, skills, MCP servers, AI apps and extensions, and grades each one on what it can actually reach: data, identities, skills and permissions. Block risky apps at install or launch, remove or rewrite risky skills, and map usage to ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF and the EU AI Act. Lightweight deployment that works with your existing security stack.

Could you build this?

No Endpoint AI control means discovering and blocking AI software at the OS level, which requires a privileged endpoint agent, kernel- or system-extension-level hooks, and threat-intelligence grading of permissions. This is enterprise security infrastructure that vibe coding cannot substitute for.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a cross-platform endpoint agent (macOS system extensions, Windows minifilter or ETW hooks, Linux eBPF), a continuously updated catalog of AI apps, agents, MCP servers and extensions, and a policy engine that maps reachable data and identities. It requires senior security engineers and red-team validation, plus ongoing threat research to keep the catalog current.
