Metomic
Finds sensitive data across SaaS apps and controls what employees and AI agents can do with it.
Metomic Overview
What it does
Metomic is a Software as a Service (SaaS) and AI data security platform that combines Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) for collaborative cloud applications. It discovers and classifies sensitive data in tools such as Slack, Google Drive, and Notion using a library of hundreds of classifiers tuned on real SaaS data, then applies controls that coach, allow, block, or hold risky requests before data leaves approved boundaries.
How it works
The platform connects to each SaaS application through a prebuilt API connector, with no endpoint agent and nothing to host. A browser extension observes which AI tools employees reach, including shadow AI, and inspects prompts in flight. AI agents route their tool calls through Metomic, which scans requests and responses, redacts sensitive values, and can pause an action until the agent owner approves it in Slack or Microsoft Teams. Classification covers personal, health, and payment data plus credentials such as cloud keys, and each agent action is logged and exportable to a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system.
Credentials and traction
SOC 2 Type II certified following a 2024 audit by Johanson Group. Named customers include Zappi, Oyster, TravelPerk, Zego, Juni, and Gorilla, with published case studies across fintech, insurance, healthtech, and HR technology. The platform is available through AWS Marketplace and targets mid-market and enterprise security teams securing employee AI adoption and SaaS collaboration data.
Key Capabilities
mapped to solution categoriesApplies sensitivity labels to data automatically based on content analysis and context without requiring users to manually classify documents before policy enforcement.
Applies preventative controls automatically such as blocking, encryption, alerting and user justification when sensitive data is detected.
Provides an automated incident response workflow for data loss events.
Discovers and enforces data policies for content stored in or transiting through cloud applications and storage, extending DLP coverage to SaaS environments without endpoint agents.
Detects and controls sensitive data entered into generative AI tools, applying block, redact, or warn actions before data leaves the organization.
Provides granular incident reporting on data loss events.
Ships policy templates for regulated data types such as PII, PHI and payment or financial data.
Ships policy templates for nonregulated sensitive data types such as controlled unclassified information, intellectual property and source code.
Integrates with SIEM platforms for incident response.
Discovers and classifies sensitive data (PII, PHI, PCI data, IP) across cloud object storage, relational and NoSQL databases, data lakes, and SaaS platforms using content inspection and ML classification.
Connects to cloud object storage, data warehouses, on-premises databases, and SaaS platforms for discovery and classification, with coverage depth varying by product.
Maps effective permissions to sensitive data stores across cloud IAM, database roles, and SaaS permissions, identifies over-privileged access and dormant entitlements.
Identifies data flowing into large language models and enforces data access governance and entitlement for generative AI use.
Automatically remediates discovered violations, revoking over-permissioned access, moving misplaced data to compliant storage, encrypting unprotected sensitive files.
Discovers and categorizes the organization's use of third-party AI, whether consumed as a service, installed locally, or embedded inside other applications, building a continuously updated inventory of AI usage including shadow AI.
Assesses and scores the risk of discovered AI services and embedded AI features (data handling, training-use terms, hosting, vendor posture) to drive sanction/block decisions.
Defines organizational AI usage policies and enforces them at the point of use - allowing, blocking, redirecting, or constraining specific AI services, models, and features per user, group, or data context.
Inspects prompts, uploads, and AI-generated responses for sensitive data across modalities, preventing exposure of regulated or proprietary information to third-party AI services.
