Keel
Keel Intelligence · Phase 2 basics · Phase 5 analytics

See what every agent actually did, and catch what looks wrong.

Keel Intelligence is the observability and detection layer: it watches what agents and workloads actually do, learns normal behavior and flags anomalies and risk.

Why it wins

Why Keel Intelligence

Generic observability sees API calls without knowing who the agent is, who it acts for or what it was allowed to do. Intelligence sees every event with identity, delegation, policy decision and Registry context attached, which makes detections more precise and investigations faster.

Keel Intelligence at a glance
Who it's for
Security operations and detection teams, plus AI platform teams who need to see agent activity, cost and drift.
Build phase

First release scope
Planned first release: unified event stream from KeelAuth, KeelKey and Registry, per-agent timeline, audit ledger, cost attribution, a small set of high-confidence rule-based detections, risk score to Governance, and SIEM export. Learned baselines, anomaly models and automated response come later.
Problems it solves

What changes with Keel

No visibility into agent activity

Today · Actions are scattered across app, cloud and LLM logs.

With Keel · One timeline per agent: tokens, credentials, context, tools, decisions.

Compromise goes unnoticed

Today · A stolen agent token looks like normal API traffic.

With Keel · Baselines per agent, with alerts on unusual scope, volume, timing or delegation.

Slow investigations

Today · Reconstructing what an agent did takes days.

With Keel · The full chain from user to agent to action, with what it saw.

Drift from declared scope

Today · Agents gradually do more than they were approved for.

With Keel · Declared versus observed comparison with drift alerts.

Untracked cost

Today · Token and API spend cannot be attributed.

With Keel · Cost and usage by agent, owner and team.

Capabilities

What Keel Intelligence does

Observability

  • Unified event stream from KeelAuth, KeelKey, Registry, Governance and the Context Gateway
  • Per-agent timeline and delegation-chain view
  • Cost and usage attribution: tokens, API calls and context volume by agent, owner and team

Behavioral analytics

  • Baselines per agent and per agent class: scopes used, sources touched, volume, timing, peers called
  • Declared versus observed access, with drift scoring

Detection

  • Rules and models for token misuse, unusual delegation chains, access outside purpose, credential use from new locations and sudden data-volume spikes
  • Risk score per agent fed back to Governance
  • Optional automated response under Governance policy: step-up approval, scope reduction or suspension

Audit and investigation

  • Tamper-evident audit ledger
  • Investigation workspace to reconstruct an agent's inputs, decisions and actions
  • Export to SIEM and data lake
Part of the platform

How it works with the rest of Keel

Each Keel product feeds the others. The delegation chain and the audit trail only work when the same system issues the identity, makes the decision and records the result.

KeelAuthSource of authentication, token and delegation events, and the target of revocation when a detection fires.
KeelKeySource of secret, key and signing events.
Keel RegistrySupplies context for every event, and receives observed access and drift.
Keel GovernanceReceives risk scores and alerts. Its policies decide which automated responses are allowed.
