Barndoor

Barndoor develops a control plane platform for agentic AI within enterprise environments. The company's product is designed to give organizations visibility and control over how AI agents access data, interact with systems, and are used across teams. The platform addresses governance and security concerns related to the growing adoption of AI agents in enterprise workflows, aiming to help organizations manage how AI is used, shared, and scaled while attempting to reduce associated risks to data and systems. The founding team has prior experience in secure API management, gained during the growth of mobile applications, as well as experience driving enterprise AI adoption within large organizations, including Fortune 100 companies. Barndoor applies this background to the specific challenges introduced by agentic AI systems, which can act autonomously and interact with multiple internal systems and data sources. The target market consists of enterprises seeking to adopt AI agents while maintaining oversight of data access, usage policies, and operational risk. Barndoor positions its offering as infrastructure that sits between AI agents and enterprise systems, functioning as a control and governance layer rather than a standalone AI model or application.
