What is Lakera?

Lakera helps companies secure generative AI applications and agents against prompt injection, data leakage, unsafe outputs, and policy violations. It is built for teams moving AI features from prototype to production and needing guardrails that security, legal, and product teams can understand.

Security, compliance, trust, identity, privacy, and risk management platforms for businesses.

See the full Security & Compliance guide to compare more tools, buyer criteria, and related workflows.

Use cases to evaluate

Detect and block prompt-injection attacks against AI applications

Add policy and content guardrails to copilots, assistants, and agents

Test AI systems for unsafe behavior before launch

Give security teams visibility into GenAI risk without slowing every product experiment

Fit to evaluate

Companies deploying customer-facing chatbots, copilots, or AI agents

Security teams assessing prompt injection and AI data-leakage risk

Product teams that need policy guardrails before launching GenAI features

Regulated or trust-sensitive businesses adopting AI in customer workflows

Business fit

Right for you if AI features are leaving the sandbox and touching customers, employees, or sensitive knowledge. Lakera is most valuable when paired with clear data boundaries, logging, and human escalation. It is less urgent for teams only using private AI assistants internally with no custom app surface.

How to evaluate Lakera

Use this category when security reviews, compliance evidence, or access controls are slowing deals or operations.

Confirm the exact workflow

Map Lakera to one concrete workflow first, such as detect and block prompt-injection attacks against ai applications. Avoid buying before the owner, trigger, output, and success metric are clear.

Check category fit

Compare evidence collection, access controls, integrations, and audit workflows.

Compare practical alternatives

Compare Lakera with other Security & Compliance vendors before committing to a contract or migration.

Validate cost and rollout effort

Lakera does not publish simple self-serve pricing for all deployments. Expect pricing to depend on product surfaces, request volume, guardrail needs, evaluation workflows, and enterprise security requirements. Also confirm implementation time, support needs, and whether the technical setup matches your team.
