Modgard · Agent Governance · MSP channel
Let your clients run AI agents — without handing over the keys.
AI agents are about to act on your clients' ERPs, CRMs and finance systems. Modgard is the layer in between: it gives every agent a name, a rule set, a budget, a human approval step for the risky stuff, and a tamper-evident record of everything it did — operated from one screen, by you, on behalf of the client.
The pain it solves
“My client wants AI agents in their systems. Who's accountable when one does something it shouldn't?”
Today that question has no good answer. An unidentified agent can call any tool on any connected system, and the log can't even say which agent did it. No MSP can put their name on that. The tools you already sell — RMM, PSA, PAM — govern human technicians beautifully. None of them govern the client's AI agents. That gap is the client's risk, and right now it's yours too.
The five promises
One screen. Named agents, rules, approvals, budgets, and a record. Every action an agent takes routes through Modgard.
Every agent is named
An agent connects and shows up by name — with what it did, on which systems. Identity is derived by Modgard, not self-reported.
Value: "Which agent did this?" finally has an answer. That's the line between a product you can be liable for and one you can't.
Rules per system, in plain language
Each connected system reads Asks first, Acts & notifies, or Acts freely — with the tools it's allowed and the budget it has. Loosen a system only when it earns it.
Value: Least-privilege by default, tuned per client, run by a normal operator — not a security specialist.
Risky actions pause for a human
An action above the agent's permission — HR data, a large write, a blown budget — lands in a Waiting for you queue with the exact request, reason and cost. Approve & run, or decline.
Value: The human-in-the-loop control that lets you say yes to agentic AI without handing a client's ERP to an unsupervised bot.
A budget and an off-switch
Per-system spend caps that actually hold. The meter climbs as agents act; the moment it hits the cap, the next action pauses instead of running.
Value: Cost and blast-radius control, per client. No surprise bills, no runaway loops.
A permanent, tamper-evident record
Every ask, refusal and approval is in a cryptographically chained audit the operator can verify — it even proves if anything was ever altered, and that everything since is clean.
Value: The artifact you hand the client as compliance evidence. "If it isn't in the record, it didn't happen" — applied to AI.
Why it’s a killer feature
- ✕RMM platforms ship AI — but embedded in their own tools. As of mid-2026 neither governs the client's agents.
- ✕The nearest gateway points AI at the MSP's own tools — allowlists and log-shipping, no approvals, no budgets, no evidence.
- ✕RMM / PSA / PAM govern human technicians brilliantly — and were never built for an AI agent as the principal.
- ✓Modgard governs the client's AI agents — and does it in the channel's own language: just-in-time access, propose-and-wait, ticket-anchored record. A familiar idiom, extended to a new kind of user.
What you get
Recurring revenue
New line item
A governance service you bill per client, per month — on top of the systems you already manage for them.
Zero new relationship
You're already there
You already hold the client's systems and their trust. This is the natural next service, not a new sale to a new buyer.
Competitive moat
First-mover
Be the MSP in your market who can safely say "yes, we govern your AI agents" — while competitors are still saying "we don't touch that."
- ·Stickier accounts. Governance sits under every agent the client runs — the harder it is to rip out, the longer they stay.
- ·Risk you can price. You turn "AI is scary and ungoverned" into a defined, billable service with a clear deliverable: the compliance record.
- ·Sold your way. Single-tenant, per client, operated from one screen — it fits how you already run managed services.
The one-line pitch
Your clients are about to let AI agents into their most important systems. Modgard is how you let that happen — safely, on the record, and as a service you sell.
“We don't just connect your systems to AI. We govern it — and we prove it.”
