Traceforce, founded by Xia and Varun, offers company-wide security monitoring for AI applications like ChatGPT and Claude across all devices. It provides visibility into how these apps connect to data sources via MCPs and includes an open-source tool for detecting vulnerable MCPs.

The platform aims to ensure AI software operates safely on employee devices and grants security teams oversight to detect and prevent breaches. Traceforce is installed as a lightweight binary and browser extension, delivering live data to a dashboard within 30 minutes. Security staff can monitor agent activity in real-time, implement controls, and receive alerts.

Inspired by Xia's experience at Clumio, Traceforce addresses the rapid adoption of AI features outpacing visibility and control. The service collects metadata and telemetry, with options for local content inspection. Currently deployed on over 1,000 devices across 10 organizations, Traceforce helps identify exposed secrets, prevent API key leaks, and warn developers of destructive commands, enhancing productivity while mitigating risks.
