[ CHALLENGES ]
Why compliant AI is hard to deploy at scale
The governance gap between AI adoption and authorized infrastructure is creating compliance exposure across agencies at scale.
Ungoverned AI use
Federal employees use AI regularly, often through tools that carry no audit trail and no agency oversight.
The authorization bottleneck
Every commercial AI gateway needs its own federal authorization before processing agency data, delaying compliant deployments by months.
CAIO mandates need infrastructure
Agencies now have mandated CAIO roles and governance boards but no unified platform to meet the underlying compliance requirements.
[ GOVERNANCE ]
Controls your CAIO and CISO require before deployment
Deploy Bifrost inside your authorized network perimeter and enforce consistent policy across every model request.
Deployment inside the ATO boundary
Bifrost runs inside your existing GovCloud VPC or Azure Government environment, inheriting its established controls.
FISMA-compliant audit logging
Capture every request with user identity, model, and use case tags to satisfy FISMA AU control requirements.
Agency SSO integration
SAML 2.0 integration federates with your existing agency identity provider so users access Bifrost through their established credentials.
Usage budgets and spend limits
Set appropriated budget limits per bureau or program, with real-time alerts before departments exceed their allocated AI spend.
[ PLATFORM CAPABILITIES ]
Purpose-built for compliant federal AI operations
Multi-model routing, observability, and cost controls built around the workflows government agencies actually run.
Adaptive load balancing
Route traffic across providers based on latency and availability, with automatic fallback if a model endpoint goes down.
Configurable guardrails
Validate AI inputs and outputs in real time against configurable policies, with block, redact, or flag actions on every violation.
Vendor-agnostic model routing
Route requests across commercial, open-source, and on-premises models based on task type and authorization tier.
MCP Gateway
Connect AI to external agency systems with explicit tool execution controls, per-virtual-key filtering, and a full audit trail on every tool operation.
Policy query caching
Cache repeated policy questions and common lookups to reduce LLM API spend across high-volume workloads.
Drop-in SDK compatibility
Route existing AI SDKs and gateways through Bifrost with a single endpoint change — no code rewrite required.
[ OPERATIONAL CAPABILITIES ]
Operational views built for federal governance teams
Dashboard panels that give leadership and platform engineers the visibility they need.
Centralized governance dashboard
Live overview of AI activity, approvals, and usage across departments.
Audit-ready compliance evidence
Searchable request trails with full metadata, ready for compliance review and export.
Budget dashboard
Real-time spend by department with alerts before teams exceed their allocated AI spend.
[ USE CASES ]
Federal workflows running through Bifrost
Policy and knowledge search
RAG-based search over agency intranets, SharePoint, and regulatory documents so employees find authoritative answers in seconds.
Document drafting and summarization
AI-assisted drafting of policy memos, budget justifications, and IG report summaries through approved models with full logging.
Acquisition and procurement AI
Route contracting officer workflows through governed LLMs for FAR compliance checking, market research, and source documentation.
Code generation and modernization
Govern AI coding assistants across developer teams with centralized model access, usage controls, and audit trails.
SOC alert triage
Triage SIEM alerts inside an air-gapped deployment, keeping classified threat intelligence within the authorized network perimeter.
Org-wide AI rollout
Provision scoped model access across departments using virtual keys and per-team/user budgets.
