About Permit.io
Permit.io is a full-stack permissions-as-a-service platform that enables developers to implement fine-grained authorization across applications, APIs, and AI agents without rebuilding access control from scratch. It unifies policy management, delegation, approvals, trust, and audit into a single action-time policy fabric that works for humans, services, and AI agents. Built on open standards (OPA and OPAL), Permit.io supports hybrid deployment with sub-millisecond decision latency and is designed for enterprise, fintech, healthcare, and government use cases.
- MCP Gateway — Authenticate humans, identify agents, gate tokens, collect consent, and govern tool access in real time for AI agent workflows.
- Multiple Authorization Models — Supports RBAC, ABAC, ReBAC, and PBAC out of the box, configurable via UI, API, SDK, or Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform).
- Policy Decision Point (PDP) — Deploy unlimited authorization microservices in-VPC for sub-millisecond, local decision latency with 0.999999 uptime.
- Embeddable Authorization Interfaces (Elements) — Drop-in UI components like User Management panels that can be embedded directly into your product.
- GitOps CI/CD Pipeline — Sync policies to your own Git repository (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) and automate deployments with a full GitOps pipeline.
- Audit and Decision Logs — Capture every authorization decision with operational audit logs, decision traces, and a configurable logs forwarder.
- Agentic Identity & Agent Fingerprinting — Interrogate AI agents via MCP to bind identity to intent; if prompt injection alters intent, the fingerprint breaks and access is denied.
- Hybrid Deployment — Run managed cloud or self-hosted; supports on-prem, multi-cloud, and hybrid architectures.
- Compliance-Ready — SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA support with SCIM user provisioning on higher tiers.
- Language SDKs & Terraform Provider — Integrate with any stack using official SDKs and manage policy configuration as infrastructure code.
