Alter Vault

Privileged access management for AI agents

Visit Alter Vault

Alter Vault is a privileged access management layer for AI agents, built by Alter Labs. It addresses the problem of agents acting on borrowed or shared credentials by storing secrets in a vault, evaluating a default-deny policy on every request, injecting credentials per call, and recording an audit trail of each action.

The platform includes a Credential Vault, Policy Engine, Agent Identity, Human in the loop approval, and Compliance & Audit modules. It integrates with 138 providers via OAuth and API keys, and offers Python and TypeScript SDKs, a CLI, an MCP server, Alter Connect for end-user authorization, and a Wallet interface. First-class integrations include LangChain, MCP, and AWS.

Alter Vault is aimed at platform and security teams building or securing AI agents. It offers a free tier with unlimited users, agents, and apps, plus paid tiers billed monthly based on API call volume, with an Enterprise edition for custom volume and deployment.
