Portal26 Adds Visibility, Management for Anthropic Claude

Portal26 has announced new enterprise AI management capabilities for Anthropic’s Claude and Claude Cowork, positioning the offering as a control layer for organizations scaling generative and agentic AI across business workflows.

The company said the capabilities are designed to give enterprises real-time visibility into Claude usage, token consumption, security controls, governance enforcement, auditability, and analytics tied to AI return on investment. 

The announcement comes as more enterprises look to expand AI use beyond experimentation while maintaining oversight of data, intellectual property, and costs.

Shadow AI and agentic workflows move into focus

Portal26 said its platform supports Claude deployments across three main areas: visibility, security, and value realization. The company is targeting large enterprises and regulated industries, including finance, insurance, healthcare, and utilities.

For MSPs, resellers, and enterprise IT partners, the announcement reflects a growing customer need: managing AI tools already in use across departments without centralized IT approval.

Portal26 said its visibility capabilities can identify sanctioned and unsanctioned Claude and Claude Cowork usage, including what it describes as “Shadow AI” and autonomous agent activity. 

The platform also provides token analytics by agent, workflow, use case, and user activity, which could help IT teams and advisors better understand AI consumption patterns.

“As Claude and Claude Cowork become core to how enterprises work, the need for a dedicated management layer has never been clearer,” Portal26 CEO Arti Raman said in the announcement.

Security controls aim at regulated enterprise adoption

Portal26 is also emphasizing security and compliance controls for organizations worried about sensitive data exposure through prompts or agentic workflows. 

Its capabilities include prompt protection, policy enforcement, AI data security, and forensic audit tools.

The company said its audit capabilities include a NIST FIPS-certified AI forensic audit vault that can support investigations and compliance reporting. 

Portal26 is also pitching the platform to CISOs, compliance officers, CIOs, CFOs, and department leaders seeking a more measurable AI adoption strategy.

Channel opportunity centers on governance services

For channel partners, the clearest opportunity may be around AI governance assessments, secure AI rollout planning, compliance support, and AI cost optimization services. 

As enterprise customers adopt Claude and similar tools, partners are being asked to help identify unauthorized AI use, set usage policies, protect data, and demonstrate the business value of AI investments.

Portal26 said its analytics can help organizations identify employee use cases, evaluate license utilization, manage token consumption, and connect AI adoption to measurable outcomes.
