Runlayer

Runlayer (operated by Anysource Inc.) is an enterprise AI control plane and enablement layer for AI agents. It sits as a governed layer between the AI clients employees already use (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Codex, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, Windsurf — 300+ clients) and company systems, connecting them to 18,000+ MCP servers with identity, policy enforcement, runtime security (Runlayer Guard), and audit logging on every request. The platform pairs an MCP gateway, an agent builder (Runlayer Agents), a governed skills/plugins registry (Runlayer Catalog), agent IAM, shadow-AI discovery (Runlayer Watch), and observability. Developers get a tenant-scoped REST Management API (/api/v1), a first-party CLI, Python packages, an OAuth broker, and a platform self-MCP (Runlayer MCP). Backed by a $30M Series A from Felicis and Khosla Ventures (June 2026).

Runlayer publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, AI, AI Agents, MCP, and Model Context Protocol.

Runlayer’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, signup flow, CLI, authentication, and 15 more developer resources.
