Identity-Based Model Access and Usage Governance

For CIO, AI platform, IT, FinOps

The problem

  • Shared API keys hide which person or team made a request.
  • Companies need different models and limits for the company, each team and each person.

What MACAW does

  • Resolves company, team and personal policies into one.
  • Allows Alice’s Haiku request.
  • Denies her Opus request, and a request over her 500-token cap, with the reason recorded.

What’s different

  • Policy by identity, not by who holds the key.
  • Policies compose across company, team and person.
  • Every allow and deny recorded with its reason.

Policy and deployment

Policy
Alice’s team may use a short list of models, up to 500 tokens a request.
Deploy
The SecureAI adapters or the macawClient SDK in your app, with policy in the MACAW control plane.
