EARLY ACCESS · AI AGENT STORAGE

AI Agent Storage with Built-In Audit Trails

Most object storage was built before AI agents existed. IronShard is S3-compatible object storage built for the AI era, so everything your agents read, write, or query is authenticated, logged, and provable.

Every file your AI touched.
Signed and on record.

One line of code gives you a complete, immutable record of every file your AI touches. Signed, searchable, and ready when the audit question arrives.

Real data.
Zero production risk.

A live, policy-enforced copy of production your AI can safely train on, test against, and experiment with. Fork a branch, run your workload, discard or promote. Production stays clean.

Give your AI agents access.
Not a blank cheque.

The first governed S3-compatible storage for AI: every agent request authenticated, every action scoped by policy, every decision traceable via MCP.

Every agent request passes through six checkpoints. Here is what happens inside one.

Geo-Distributed Storage
for Automation and Compliance

Regional Control
Store data in specific locations to comply with GDPR, the EU AI Act, or local data residency requirements.
Redundancy
Use multiple globally distributed nodes to protect against outages, cyber threats, and data loss.
Zero-Trust Security
AI agents are authenticated, verified, and auditable, ensuring sensitive information remains protected.
AI-Ready Workflows
Run AI training, analytics, and enterprise workloads on petabyte-scale datasets while maintaining compliance.

Connect What You
Already Have.

IronShard provides fully managed storage out of the box or connects to the S3-compatible buckets you already use. No migration, no vendor lock-in, no custody transfer. Your data stays in your accounts. IronShard adds governance, not ownership.

Multi-Cloud Architecture

IronShard protects data with end-to-end encryption, erasure-coded fragmentation, and multi-cloud distribution. Your data is private, provider-agnostic, and always available.

01
encrypt
End-to-End Encryption

Your data is encrypted before it ever leaves your device.

02
fragment
Erasure-Coded Fragmentation

Files are split and erasure-coded. Each shard alone is meaningless but fully recoverable.

03
distribute
Multi-Cloud Distribution

Shards are stored across your chosen jurisdictions, ensuring compliance and resilience.

04
reconstruct
Authorised Access Only

Files are decrypted only for verified users. Every reconstruction is secure and auditable.

Unstructured Data, Instantly AI-Ready

AI data is unstructured: videos, images, documents, logs, and text. IronShard makes it instantly discoverable with built-in metadata designed for AI. Find, prepare, and feed training and inference pipelines in seconds, not weeks, with no governance overhead.

Seamless S3 Compatibility

IronShard is built with 100% S3 API compatibility, making integration with your existing infrastructure effortless. The tools, scripts, and workflows you rely on work without modification.

Auditable from
Day One.

From the day you connect, every action your AI agent takes is logged, governed, and exportable. When the audit question arrives — from a regulator, a client, or your own team — the answer already exists.
