Where PolicyArc sits in your stack
PolicyArc is the authorization layer between who your users are and what they're allowed to do.

Core Capabilities
Everything you need to govern access across humans, services, and AI agents.
Agent-Safe Access
AI agents receive JIT, scoped, and time-bound tokens, eliminating privilege escalation — safely rollout Agentic AI systems across the enterprise.
Single Access Plane
All identities (agents, humans, and workloads) governed by a single authorization service — free dev teams from building authorization into everything.
Policy as Arbiter
Define who can do what in plain policy rules, enforced consistently on every request — eliminate hard-coded permission logic scattered across services and apps.
Context-Aware
Decisions use static attributes like role and MFA alongside live signals like resource sensitivity and workflow state — grant or restrict based on the full picture.
Standards-Based
Built on OAuth 2.0, OIDC, Open Policy Agent, and open standards — integrate with any identity provider and take your policies with you if you ever leave.
Works with your Infra
PolicyArc is designed to slot into your existing stack without ripping anything out. Connect your current IdP, protect your existing APIs, and extend to AI agent access.
How It Works
From request to decision in milliseconds
Every access request flows through the same path — regardless of whether it comes from a human, a service, or an AI agent.
Supported Standards
Built on open standards, not proprietary lock-in
Every protocol PolicyArc implements is an IETF RFC or open standard. Your clients, resource servers, and identity providers work with PolicyArc out of the box — no vendor SDKs required. Your policies are OPA Rego. Your data is JSON. If you leave, everything comes with you.
Deployment
Deploy the way you want to
Whether you want a fully managed service or complete control inside your own perimeter, PolicyArc fits. Start in the cloud and migrate to self-hosted when you're ready — the same Helm chart, the same policies, the same API.
