Peta vs. Bevel

Peta acts as a sophisticated control plane for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), facilitating, securing, regulating, and supervising the interactions between AI clients and agents with external resources, data, and APIs. The platform incorporates a zero-trust MCP gateway, a secure vault, a managed runtime environment, a policy engine, human-in-the-loop approvals, and extensive audit logging into a unified solution, allowing organizations to enforce detailed access controls, protect sensitive credentials, and track all interactions performed by AI systems. Central to Peta is Peta Core, which serves as both a secure vault and gateway, responsible for encrypting credentials, generating ephemeral service tokens, ensuring identity verification and policy compliance for each request, managing the lifecycle of the MCP server through lazy loading and auto-recovery, and injecting credentials at runtime without exposing them to agents. Furthermore, the Peta Console enables teams to determine which users or agents can access specific MCP tools within defined environments, set up approval processes, manage tokens, and analyze usage data along with associated costs. This comprehensive strategy not only bolsters security but also promotes effective resource management and accountability across AI operations, ultimately leading to improved operational efficiency and enhanced oversight. By integrating these functionalities, Peta establishes a robust foundation for organizations seeking to optimize their AI-driven initiatives.

Bevel functions as a vendor-agnostic control plane integrated with Git, specifically designed for enterprise AI agents, enabling organizations to establish their agents, context, skills, tools, permissions, and identities as proprietary files within their systems, accessible by any agent runtime through the Managed Control Plane (MCP). The context is structured as categorized knowledge nodes, complete with documented provenance that outlines the source, last modification, and verification timestamps, all of which is synthesized into a navigable graph that can be continuously updated for dashboard creation. Skills are defined in clear Markdown formats, allowing process owners to effortlessly read and review modifications, as well as transfer them between various runtimes. Tool manifests detail the available functionalities, while sensitive data is securely encrypted in a vault, managed by access protocols that specify which agents have permission to read particular files or execute certain endpoints. Each agent is allocated a distinctive identity and set of credentials, ensuring traceability of all actions to their origin. This extensive framework not only fortifies security and structure but also fosters transparency and accountability within AI operations, creating a more robust ecosystem for enterprise-level management of AI agents. Furthermore, the system promotes collaborative development, allowing teams to innovate while maintaining control over their AI resources.
