You Can’t Govern What You Can’t See

Imagine: Teams across your organization are rapidly adopting SaaS and AI tools, without IT visibility. These tools promise to boost productivity, but they also interact with sensitive data and can create security gaps if left unchecked.

Without CloudEagle.ai

Teams integrate AI and SaaS tools into internal systems without approval or oversight.
Security, IT, and legal teams struggle to answer key questions like: "What tools are being used across the company, and who has access to them?"
Policies are created, but enforcement is reactive, only occurring after an issue arises or during manual audits.
Teams unknowingly operate in the dark, unsure whether the tools are driving real value, and security controls are often bypassed.
Result: Shadow IT and Shadow AI grow unchecked, leading to compliance gaps, security vulnerabilities, and unclear ROI on new technology investments.

With CloudEagle.ai

CloudEagle.ai automatically discovers and tracks both AI and SaaS tools as soon as they are used across your organization.
Unauthorized app access attempts are blocked in real-time, and alerts are automatically sent to the admin.
Track the adoption and effectiveness of tools like Copilot, Slack, Salesforce, and others, ensuring they deliver the expected ROI and are compliant with company policies.
Leadership gains clear, real-time visibility into which AI and SaaS tools are approved, which identities are managing them, and whether they meet security and compliance standards.
Result: Your teams can innovate rapidly with AI and SaaS tools, while data access remains secure, compliance is ensured, and you have full visibility into all technology in use.

  • Understand which apps overlap with approved tools to prevent redundant spend
  • Act while alternatives are still viable, not after teams depend on the tool
