Overview

What it is

Never build Permissions again. Zero-latency fine-grained authorization as a service for human, machine, and agentic identities.

Intent

I need it when

Manage permissions across humans, services, and AI agents from a single unified platform

Permit.io unifies policy, delegation, approvals, trust, and audit into one action-time policy fabric supporting RBAC, ABAC, and ReBAC models. It enables human consent workflows for delegating access to agents within policy-defined limits and provides end-to-end audit trails from agent prompt to database row.

Achieve compliance and audit requirements for regulated industries handling sensitive data

MCP Gateway provides SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA BAA, GDPR, and CCPA compliance certifications. It enables contextual authorization decisions that protect sensitive queries, rows, and columns without data leaving the VPC, with comprehensive audit logs and decision traces for compliance reporting.

Deploy authorization infrastructure that scales with business growth without architectural rework

Permit.io offers hybrid deployment (managed cloud or self-hosted), supports hundreds of millions of identities at sub-50ms latency, and uses policy-as-code with GitOps workflows. Pricing scales transparently based on MAU and tenant count, growing with the business without requiring infrastructure redesign.

Secure AI agents and control what actions they can perform across systems in real-time

MCP Gateway provides agentic-native identity by interrogating agent intent via MCP, creating dynamic agent fingerprints bound to specific prompts and actions. It enforces fine-grained authorization at action-time across every system the agent touches, preventing prompt injection attacks and unauthorized access through real-time policy evaluation.

Implement zero-trust authorization for microservices and APIs without replacing existing identity providers

MCP Gateway acts as a control plane that sits in front of upstream systems, enforcing policy at the gateway while allowing organizations to keep their existing IdP, developer stack, and authentication infrastructure. It provides distributed policy decision points (PDPs) with sub-millisecond latency deployed in-VPC at the edge.

Drop

Not a fit when

  • Organization requires only basic role-based access control without need for AI agent authorization or fine-grained policy enforcement
  • Team has no AI agents or agentic workflows and only needs traditional human user identity and access management
  • Company requires on-premises-only deployment with no cloud or hybrid options available
  • Use case involves simple static API key management without need for real-time, action-time authorization decisions
  • Organization cannot integrate with OPA/OPAL-based policy engines or requires proprietary policy language incompatible with Rego/Cedar
