Architecture
RADAR deploys beside your application, LLM gateway, tools, and observability stack. It captures prompts, completions, tool events, policy signals, and review records without intercepting the execution path.
System boundary
RADAR deploys beside your existing stack. It observes and records — it does not control or orchestrate. An independent evidence layer carries more weight with auditors.
Sidecar model. RADAR runs beside your LLM gateway and tools. No agent code changes. No proxy injection. No traffic interception.
Your infrastructure. All evidence — traces, findings, exports — stays inside your VPC, on-prem, or air-gapped network. Zero cloud egress.
Design principles
- Name
Independent evidence- Description
RADAR observes and records. It does not execute, orchestrate, or replace your workflow engine. An independent layer carries more weight with auditors.
- Name
Self-hosted by default- Description
Evidence storage, retention, and exports stay inside customer infrastructure. No cloud dependencies, no telemetry egress.
- Name
Audit-ready records- Description
Traces are structured for review, SIEM export, retention controls, and regulator-facing evidence packs. Every record is independently verifiable.
Evidence flow
RADAR's evidence pipeline has three stages:
-
Observe — Connect to the agent stack, LLM gateway, and tool activity streams. No agent code changes required.
-
Record — Normalize activity into trace, policy, PII, review, and retention records with cryptographic integrity.
-
Export — Send evidence to SIEM, audit packs, data warehouses, and internal review workflows in standard formats.
AKIOS OSS and EnforceCore are separate open-source projects in the AKIOUD AI family. They demonstrate enforcement depth but RADAR is evaluated and purchased as the commercial compliance evidence platform.
