Overview
Virtue AI is an American company founded in 2024 by researchers from the University of Illinois and the University of California, Berkeley to build safety and security tooling for artificial intelligence systems. Its products red-team models and agents for harmful, biased or unsafe behaviour, apply runtime guardrails to filter inputs and outputs in production, and scan agent deployments for the new attack surfaces that tool-using models create. Headquartered in San Francisco and backed by venture investors including Lightspeed, it sells to enterprises and model developers deploying artificial intelligence into regulated or customer-facing settings.

Compliance Reporting
Evidence and reporting mapped to emerging artificial intelligence regulation and internal governance requirements. Enterprises increasingly need to demonstrate what testing was performed rather than simply assert that a system is safe.
virtueai.com
VirtueAgent
Security assessment for agent deployments, covering tool access, permission scope and prompt injection exposure. Agents that can act on external systems present risks that content filtering alone does not address.
virtueai.com
VirtueGuard
Runtime guardrails that inspect model inputs and outputs in production and block unsafe content or actions. It is the enforcement layer between a model and the users or systems it interacts with, and it has to run fast enough not to be felt in the response.
virtueai.com
VirtueRed
Automated red teaming that probes models and agents for unsafe, biased or exploitable behaviour. Running this continuously rather than as a one-off audit matters because model updates and prompt changes can reintroduce failures that were previously fixed.
