Business Benefits

Say yes to AI without losing control.

T-Llama lets employees keep the AI tools that make them productive while the company gets identity-based access, keyless endpoints, live budget enforcement, and metadata-first evidence over every governed request.

Core benefits

Six outcomes the business actually feels.

Remove provider keys from endpoints

Developers and staff no longer need provider API keys in shell profiles, tool configs, repos, or CI. T-Llama gives tools a scoped local credential and keeps provider keys inside the gateway boundary.

  • Local Session Credentials are endpoint-only
  • macOS Keychain-backed credential metadata
  • Gateway rejects copied local credentials

Govern native workflows instead of replacing them

Bans create shadow AI. Mandated chat boxes kill the workflows that made AI valuable. T-Llama meets users where they already work: Claude Code, Codex, and OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible clients.

  • OpenAI-compatible local API
  • Anthropic-compatible local API
  • OpenAI Responses local API
  • Native launch for Claude Code and Codex

Stop runaway spend before it happens

T-Llama evaluates budgets before requests spend provider tokens. Finance gets project and user attribution, remaining budget visibility, and cost confidence instead of a surprise provider invoice.

  • Gateway budgets enforced pre-spend
  • Personal allowance and per-user overrides
  • Project budgets and model allow-lists
  • Analytics by project, user, model, and tool

Keep the gateway private

A public endpoint protected only by a bearer token is still a public spend path. T-Llama is designed around private gateway reachability and fail-closed behavior when the private path is unavailable.

  • Managed private gateway address
  • Reachability diagnostic
  • Fail-closed contract
  • Remote pilot evidence

Produce evidence without prompt surveillance

T-Llama records who used which tool, model, project, and budget outcome without storing raw prompts or completions by default. Compliance gets evidence; employees avoid a new prompt surveillance system.

  • Metadata-only endpoint and gateway events
  • No prompts, completions, or secret values in artifacts
  • Guardrail events use fingerprints, not raw secrets

Make AI governance operational

Admins create projects, add members, allow models, set budgets, and see usage from an Entra-protected portal. Changes take effect on the next request because the gateway revalidates central policy every time.

  • Management API as source of truth
  • Admin Portal as thin client
  • Central projects, members, allow-lists, budgets
  • Gateway request-path enforcement
For every stakeholder

One answer, aligned across the org chart.

Security

Keyless endpoints, pre-egress guardrails, private gateway access, distinct failure classes, and identity-bound enforcement.

Finance

Budget enforcement before spend, project/user/tool attribution, cost confidence, remaining budget visibility, and analytics APIs for billing integration.

Platform

One control plane in front of models and providers, native tool adoption, API-first management, deterministic contract tests, and a simple pilot deployment shape.

Compliance

Metadata-first evidence, Entra-based access, admin role gating, and no default prompt or completion capture.

Developers & staff

Keep Claude Code, Codex, and compatible AI clients. Stop juggling provider keys. Launch tools through the Onramp and keep working.

Leadership

A factual map of AI usage: who is using it, where spend lands, which tools and models matter, and where policy friction appears.
