Codenotary, leaders in assuring safe and secure use of AI, today announced AgentMon Start, a purpose-built release of its AI agent monitoring platform for small and mid-sized businesses. The launch provides visibility into how autonomous AI agents operate in software development organizations, without requiring a dedicated security team or cloud-based deployment.
The agentic monitor system provides the ability to see, investigate and govern what autonomous AI agents are actually doing in software development, and understand where the token spend goes. The launch comes as AI agents rapidly move from proof-of-concept into day-to-day business operations, now accessing files, writing and modifying software, invoking tools and APIs, and making thousands of decisions with limited human involvement.
AgentMon Start is for organizations that want comprehensive AI oversight without deploying complex SaaS infrastructure or building dedicated AI security teams. No cloud account is required and AI activity remains within the organization's network. Rather than requiring dedicated security analysts, the platform enables existing IT, development and security teams to understand AI agent behavior, investigate anomalies, enforce governance policies and maintain compliance.
AgentMon Start reports on token spend providing organizations with insight into their AI budget. Its cost management capabilities include token consumption tracking, model usage, developer activity, session history and AI spending across teams. This enables organizations to identify unusually expensive usage, compare AI tools, establish budgets and optimize AI operating costs.
The platform identifies secrets appearing in prompts, monitors files accessed or modified by AI agents, detects potential prompt injection attempts, identifies unauthorized AI tools and maintains an audit trail of agent activity.
For incident investigation, when AI agents behave unexpectedly, organizations can review reasoning replay, execution traces and search activity logs to understand exactly what occurred, eliminating the need to reconstruct incidents from fragmented application logs.
For governance and shadow AI detection, organizations gain visibility into which AI tools employees are actually using while applying consistent governance policies and guardrails across approved and unauthorized AI applications. AgentMon provides unified monitoring across more than 16 AI agent and large language models including Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Goose, Groq, KiloCode, Kiro, Ollama, and Roo Code.
Recent industry events have highlighted how quickly autonomous systems can perform thousands of actions beyond human oversight, making AI agent monitoring essential. AgentMon Start closes the visibility gap for non-enterprise organizations where AI agents still have access to sensitive systems, credentials, customer records and source code, while generating substantial cost.
