Surface every shadow AI tool and agent in your organisation.
Stop data leakage and enforce security guardrails from one platform.
VIEW
See all AI tool usage across your enterprise – from Microsoft Copilot to ChatGPT including Shadow AI activity.
Identify which teams are innovating, where silos exist, and uncover hidden adoption patterns
SECURE
Ensure AI safety and compliance with automatic data redaction and policy enforcement. Our guardrails block sensitive information (PII, IP, confidential data) from being sent to external AI tools and guide users toward secure practices.
ENGAGE
Equip employees with an AI coach that provides instant guidance and best practices as they work.
This virtual coach offers tips, suggests safe alternatives, and answers questions, helping staff use AI effectively and ethically in their day-to-day tasks.
INTEGRATION
Aona sits across the AI stack your team already uses. ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw, and dozens more. No rip and replace, no workflow changes.

TESTIMONIALS
Real feedback from published Aona case studies, named industry experts, and investors. Our healthcare customer's identity is withheld at their request.
We needed a way to monitor AI usage across the organisation and implement an AI staff policy. We support the use of new technology, but we needed guardrails to make sure it was happening safely.

We interpret 126 modern awards and pay 70,000+ workers. That maths only works if AI is doing real operational load, not sitting in a browser tab. Today agents handle client intake, prospecting and internal workflows — inside guardrails I actually trust, which is the only reason they were allowed near production.

Our support team is dedicated to helping you secure workforce AI adoption with Aona AI. If the questions listed here don't fully address your inquiries, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We're here to ensure your experience with our platform is seamless, secure, and satisfactory.
Aona AI is the Workforce AI Security platform: it gives you visibility and control over how your workforce uses generative AI. Aona discovers Shadow AI usage across your organisation, prevents sensitive data from leaking into AI tools, and enforces your AI policies, so your teams can adopt AI productively without exposing the business to security, privacy, or compliance risks.
Aona AI prioritizes data security and compliance through robust protection measures, enforcing AI policies specific to each task or data category. This ensures adherence to privacy laws and AI ethics, safeguarding sensitive information effectively.
Aona AI is purpose-built for Workforce AI Security rather than general AI enablement. It combines Shadow AI discovery, data loss prevention for AI tools, and policy governance in a single platform that works across hundreds of AI applications, not just one vendor's ecosystem. Security and IT teams get the visibility, guardrails, and audit trails they need, while employees keep using AI productively.
Aona AI offers flexible deployment options to fit your existing infrastructure. Get started in minutes with our lightweight browser extension for low-touch integration, install our desktop agent for Windows and macOS for deeper visibility and control, or connect via our APIs for custom integrations and enterprise workflows.
Your team's data is securely managed with Aona AI. We prioritize the privacy and security of your data and do not retain your prompts. For enterprise customers, we offer the flexibility to run our platform either on-premises or in a private cloud environment. This ensures complete control over your data and aligns with your organization's security requirements.
Shadow AI refers to AI tools and applications that employees use without official IT approval or oversight, including personal ChatGPT accounts, browser-based AI assistants, or AI coding tools installed on work devices. It's a security risk because sensitive business data, customer information, and intellectual property can be entered into these tools and stored on third-party servers outside your control. Shadow AI also creates compliance gaps, since data processed by unsanctioned tools may violate GDPR, HIPAA, or industry-specific regulations. Aona detects Shadow AI usage across your organisation so you can assess, govern, or block it as appropriate.
Aona monitors AI tool usage through a lightweight browser extension and optional desktop agent that runs on employee devices. These capture which AI applications are being accessed, when, and by whom, without recording the actual content of prompts. Aona then surfaces this data in a centralised dashboard, giving security and IT teams a real-time inventory of every AI tool in use across the organisation, including sanctioned tools, unsanctioned Shadow AI, and newly emerging applications.
Yes. Aona is designed to work across the full landscape of AI tools your employees are using, including ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, Claude, GitHub Copilot, Perplexity, and hundreds of other AI applications. Aona provides visibility and policy enforcement across all these tools from a single platform, so you're not locked into monitoring just one vendor's ecosystem.
Aona is built to support compliance across the major AI and data protection regulations, including GDPR (protecting personal data entered into AI tools), HIPAA (preventing PHI from being shared with unsanctioned AI systems), the EU AI Act (risk classification, documentation, and oversight requirements), and ISO 42001 (AI management system requirements). Aona provides the audit logs, policy enforcement controls, and governance documentation that compliance and GRC teams need to demonstrate due diligence to regulators and auditors.
Most organisations are up and running with Aona in under a day. The browser extension can be pushed to all employees via your existing MDM or endpoint management tools in minutes, with no changes to network infrastructure required. The desktop agent for deeper visibility takes slightly longer to roll out depending on your environment. Our team provides onboarding support and most customers see their first Shadow AI insights within hours of deployment.
Traditional DLP (Data Loss Prevention) solutions were designed for a world of email, file transfers, and USB drives, so they struggle with the dynamic, conversational nature of AI interactions. Aona is the Workforce AI Security platform, purpose-built for AI governance: it understands AI tool behaviour, can apply contextual policies based on which AI tool is being used and what type of data is involved, and provides the AI-specific audit trails and risk assessments that regulators are now asking for. Traditional DLP also tends to be highly disruptive, blocking legitimate work. Aona focuses on visibility and intelligent guardrails, allowing employees to use AI productively while keeping sensitive data protected.
