Compliance SaaS Pivots to Governing Agents: Vanta's AI Agent Reaches GA in July; Drata Declares 'AI Agent Governance' a New Category
Drata (June 10) is extending its trust platform — used by 8,500+ orgs — with inline sensors that inventory every agent employees create (including shadow agents), map each to owner/identity/permissions, and block policy violations in real time before execution. In parallel, Vanta's AI Agent (a '24/7 GRC engineer' collection) moves from private beta to general availability in July, on the back of $300M ARR and 16,000+ customers. The GRC incumbents are racing to govern the very agents that are replacing other SaaS — turning 'agent sprawl' into their next attach motion.
