Failproof AI
End-to-end reliability for AI agents. Traces every run at the agent runtime, finds where agents fail on its own, and lets you author and enforce a policy that stops the bad action in realtime - deployed on-prem or in the cloud.
Lakera
AI security firewall (Lakera Guard, part of Check Point). Real-time detection of prompt injection, jailbreaks, PII, and data leakage on LLM inputs and outputs, via an API.
| capability | Failproof AI | Lakera |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | AI agents | LLM security |
| Agent-level tracing | Agent runtime, deeper | No |
| Autonomous failure finding | Automatic | Threat detection |
| Realtime policy enforcement | Yes, realtime | On LLM I/O |
| What it stops | Reliability failures + actions | Prompt injection, PII, jailbreaks |
| Prompt-injection / jailbreak detection | Basic | Yes - specialist |
| Deployment | Local, on-prem, cloud | API / cloud |
Choose Failproof AI when
- you run high-impact autonomous agents that take real actions
- a wrong action is costly or irreversible
- you need to stop failures at runtime, not just trace them
- you want an end-to-end reliability solution, on-prem or cloud
Choose Lakera when
- your main risk is prompt injection, jailbreaks, or data leakage
- you want a dedicated LLM security firewall
- you need best-in-class threat detection on model I/O
FAQ
Is Lakera an alternative to Failproof AI?
They cover different risks. Lakera secures the model against attacks (prompt injection, PII, jailbreaks) on LLM I/O. Failproof AI keeps the agent reliable - tracing runs, finding failure modes, and enforcing policy on agent actions. For security, Lakera is the specialist; for agent reliability, Failproof AI is.
Does Failproof AI do prompt-injection detection?
It has basic protection, but Lakera is the specialist there. Failproof AI focuses on agent-runtime reliability and enforcing what the agent does.
Can I use both?
Yes - Lakera for LLM security, Failproof AI for agent reliability.
