Exogram vs SailPoint
“SailPoint manages *who* has access; Exogram governs *what actions* AI tools *execute*.”
Executive Architecture Matrix
Side-by-side technical capability breakdown between SailPoint and Exogram.
| Technical Dimension | SailPoint | Exogram Authority Runtime |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Focus | Identity Governance & Access Management | Execution Governance |
| Security Method | Policy-based Access Control (RBAC/ABAC) | Deterministic Logic (0.07ms) |
| False Negative Rate | Probabilistic / Unknown | 0.00% |
Execution Failure Containment
How unexpected autonomous errors, injection payloads, and runaway cycles are intercepted in live production.
SQL & Data Mutations
SailPoint relies on natural language alignment or connection permissions. Unsanitized mutations execute against target databases.
Intercepts the SQL AST in 0.07ms, enforcing strict read-only constraints and table mutation barriers.
Rogue API & Retry Loops
Agents can enter cyclical retry states upon receiving error responses, firing thousands of unauthorized tool calls.
Tracks state transitions across turns, halting infinite loops and duplicate mutations on turn 2.
Memory Drift & Poisoning
Context windows accumulate hallucinations and conflicting state over long-horizon sessions.
Maintains SHA-256 state hashing across all memory writes, verifying facts before persistence.
Latency & Compute Footprint
Deterministic CPU execution eliminates secondary LLM inference delays and API billing.
Dependent on secondary model API hops, token generation, or cloud roundtrips.
Compiled deterministic bitmask logic gates running on standard host CPU.
Exogram evaluates actions inside your application process in 0.07ms with zero network hops and zero recurring token costs.

The Plain English Verdict
Use SailPoint for robust identity governance, managing user access, and ensuring compliance across your enterprise. Deploy Exogram to secure the *actions* performed by AI tools and agents, providing a deterministic firewall against unauthorized or destructive execution, even for users and tools deemed 'authorized' by IGA systems.
Why I Built Exogram: AI Agents Need Deterministic Governance
An LLM should generate thoughts, but it should never possess unilateral execution authority. Separating reasoning from physical tool permissions is the only way to deploy agents safely.
What SailPoint Does
- •SailPoint provides comprehensive Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) solutions.
- •They manage and secure user access across an organization's applications, data, and infrastructure, ensuring compliance and reducing risk.
- •SailPoint primarily focuses on *who* can access *what*, but does not provide real-time, deterministic execution governance for AI tool actions.
What Exogram Does
- Exogram establishes a 0.07ms deterministic execution boundary around AI tools and agents.
- It precisely blocks destructive tool calls, prevents unauthorized data exfiltration, and enforces policy rules on every AI-driven action.
- Exogram complements SailPoint by adding a critical layer of *execution-level* security, ensuring that even authorized AI tools perform only permitted actions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Exogram replace SAILPOINT?
No, Exogram does not replace SailPoint. SailPoint manages *who* has access to systems and data, while Exogram governs *what actions* AI tools and agents can *execute* within those systems.
Can I use Exogram along with SAILPOINT?
Absolutely. SailPoint ensures proper identity and access management. Exogram then acts as a critical execution firewall, ensuring that even AI tools operating under authorized identities cannot perform unauthorized or destructive actions, providing a layered defense.
