TapPass vs Arthur AI

Arthur AI monitors model performance, bias, and explainability. TapPass governs AI agents at runtime, scanning and blocking in real-time before damage happens.

Monitoring vs. governance

📊

Arthur AI: model monitoring

Arthur AI observes model performance, detects bias, provides explainability. The focus is understanding how models behave over time.

🛡

TapPass: interaction governance

TapPass governs every interaction. What data the agent sends, what tools it calls, what the response contains. Real-time scanning, blocking, auditing.

🔑

Blocking vs. observing

Arthur AI observes and reports. TapPass observes, reports, and blocks. When an agent sends PII, TapPass blocks the request before it reaches the model.

Monitoring tells you what happened. Governance prevents it.

Real-time blocking. PII protection. Audit trails. EU compliance.
