AI is transforming the way that work gets done across every discipline, from Sales and Marketing to Finance and Engineering. Through this transformation, one thing hasn’t changed: daily work gets done in Slack. As employees look to integrate more AI tools and agents into their work, Security leaders are faced with a challenge: how can they say “yes” to AI transformation without taking on untenable levels of risk?
Runlayer solves for this, with AI enablement, security, and control in one platform. An internal catalog of approved connectors and skills gives employees the easy path to adopt AI and delegate real work to agents. Behind the scenes, Security teams get continuous shadow AI discovery, an MCP and LLM gateway, runtime security, and fine-grained AI governance to ensure the easy path is a safe path.
In partnership with Slack, we’re making it easier than ever for employees to build and run agents without compromising on security. As a launch partner for “Add to Slack”, we’re bringing Runlayer’s governed agents into the place employees get work done.
Governed agents that do real work in Slack
Runlayer agents are easy to build and secure by design. Simply describe what you want the agent to do in natural language, and Runlayer creates the agent with its own identity, scoped access controls, and full audit trail. One click enables the agent in Slack, so employees can work with it like any other teammate. Runlayer agents can respond when mentioned, DM employees, monitor channels, and work on a schedule.
While employees get the benefit of a simple experience, Security and AI Transformation teams get the granular visibility and control they need, including:
- Agent IAM, so you can assign policies and access controls to specific agents, and audit individual actions and tool calls with user and agent attribution.
- Structured evals, to test the agent against different models and settings to optimize performance and cost.
- Skills and connectors, to enable each agent with the right deterministic instructions and MCP connections for its intended use.
- Session traces and security scanners, for full visibility into the agent’s reasoning steps, tool calls, and outputs, with alerts and runtime blocks of risky behavior like intent drift, hidden characters, prompt injection, and more.
Accelerate AI transformation without compromising on security
This is what enterprise AI transformation looks like in practice, real work delegated to agents, with security built in from the start. See why industry leaders like Gusto, PagerDuty, and dbt Labs trust Runlayer to help them go all in on AI → book a custom demo.
