Building the Security Layer for the AI era

MATVIS, the AI security company that lets organizations use AI without compromising on data protection

Our Purpose

Enterprise AI is moving fast. But the security infrastructure hasn’t kept up. Personal data flows into AI models unfiltered. System prompts get bypassed. Audit trails don’t exist. We started MATVIS to close that gap – data protection at the API layer, deterministic, auditable, and independent of any AI provider.

What we deliver

We’re building MATVIS to be the go-to security layer between organizations and the AI models they use. Our roadmap: deeper enterprise integrations, expanded threat detection, and the governance tools security teams need at scale. We’re not here to block AI. We’re here to make it deployable with confidence.
