Prompt injection
A judge model screens every request before it reaches OpenAI, Anthropic, or Mistral. Injected instructions get blocked; clean traffic passes untouched.
ENFORCEDAiDren is a drop-in security proxy for LLM applications. You change your OpenAI, Anthropic or Mistral base URL to api.aidren.co.uk, and AiDren screens each prompt for injection, scans each response for leaked secrets and personal data, and scans model files for malicious code. Plans start at £49 a month.
Or fire 6 real attacks at your own prompt, free, no signup.

AiDren screening 42ms
The 55-second version — from a hidden instruction to a blocked request.
It calls untrusted APIs with your credentials. It loads model files pulled from public hubs, sight unseen. It can leak a system prompt or a customer’s data straight back out in its own reply. It makes its own outbound connections, unmonitored. And once more than one person touches it, nobody has one place to see what it’s actually doing. Any one of those is a single point of failure, and until now, nothing was watching all of them.
AiDren sits at the only point every request has to pass through.
Most tools cover one layer. AiDren watches the complete path in and out of your AI stack.
A judge model screens every request before it reaches OpenAI, Anthropic, or Mistral. Injected instructions get blocked; clean traffic passes untouched.
ENFORCEDEvery response is checked too: system-prompt leaks, emails, card numbers, API keys and other secrets get redacted or blocked before they reach your app.
ENFORCEDEvery model file pulled through AiDren from Hugging Face or GitHub — pickle, safetensors, GGUF, ONNX, joblib, Keras — is scanned for malicious code before it reaches disk.
ENFORCEDThe worker-agent package watches your agent’s own outbound connections and flags anything unexpected, without blocking a real one.
ENFORCEDTerm, regex, topic and threshold rules you set yourself, attached to any proxy key. The built-in judge still runs underneath.
ENFORCEDUnlimited seats on every plan. Invite your team, see who created or revoked a key, and keep one shared audit log.
ENFORCEDMost tools cover one of these. Enterprise platforms cover all six — on an annual contract, after a sales call. AiDren covers all six: self-serve, month to month, cancel any time.

Prices are in GBP. If you’re outside the UK, checkout shows and charges the equivalent in your local currency, and your subscription renews in it. The request number is a fair-use guide, not a hard wall. If you go over, we’ll email you about a 10,000-request top-up (£19) or moving up a tier. We won’t cut you off mid-month. Model-file scans and agent egress reports don’t count toward it. Annual plans save two months. Pay monthly or yearly, cancel any time. Higher volume? Talk to us.
Technical answers, without the enterprise runaround.
Prompt injection is when someone hides instructions inside content your AI reads — a webpage, an email, a file — hoping your model follows them instead of you. AiDren screens every request before it reaches your model, catching injected instructions before they can hijack your agent.
The proxy layer itself adds about 5 ms. On top of that, requests that need screening get one classification call — usually 200–500 ms, which runs before your request reaches OpenAI, Anthropic, or Mistral, so it overlaps nothing. Short, clearly-benign messages skip the classification call entirely. Model-file scans and egress reports add nothing to your chat traffic.
OpenAI, Anthropic, and Mistral today, with the same drop-in proxy pattern for all three. More providers are coming.
Hugging Face Hub and GitHub: release assets and raw files. Route the download through AiDren and it's scanned for malicious code before it reaches disk, across pickle (including ones wrapped inside a torch.save ZIP), safetensors, GGUF, ONNX, joblib, and Keras. Non-model files pass straight through.
Yes. Output scanning checks every response for system-prompt leaks and common data-leak patterns, including emails, card numbers, IBANs, phone numbers, API keys, and private keys, before it reaches your app. You choose per key whether a hit gets redacted or the whole response blocked, and whether prompts get the same check.
Yes. Custom policies let you attach term, regex, topic, and threshold rules to any proxy key: block a specific phrase, cap message length, flag a topic your model shouldn't discuss. The built-in judge still runs underneath; a policy adds to it, it doesn't replace it.
Yes, on every plan, with unlimited seats. Invite teammates by email; they get their own login into the same account. An audit log (with CSV export) records who created or revoked a key, changed a policy, or updated a setting.
Yes, via the built-in attack test. Paste your system prompt, and AiDren runs it against roughly 20 real prompt-injection and jailbreak attempts on a cheap model using your own upstream key, then shows you exactly what got through with your AiDren protection on versus off. It's included on every plan, including the trial.
Your requests pass through AiDren to make a block/allow decision and are never stored beyond the decision log you see in your own dashboard. Your API keys are encrypted at rest and never logged in plain text.
AiDren runs in the UK/EU, and your account data and decision logs stay there. If you need a dedicated deployment in another region (US, APAC) for data-residency reasons, that's available for enterprise customers — email us.
A "checked request" is one AiDren screens on its way to your model. Starter covers 100,000 a month, Growth 500,000, Scale 2,000,000. It's a fair-use guide, not a hard limit: if you go over, we email you about a 10,000-request top-up (£19) or moving up a tier, we don't cut you off mid-month. The count resets on the 1st. For very high volume, email us for a custom plan. Model-file scans and agent egress reports don't count.
AiDren fails closed. If the classification pass can't complete (the screening provider is down, a timeout, an outage) the request is blocked, not waved through. We'd rather your app get an error it can retry than silently forward an unscreened request to your model. The screening layer also runs on a primary provider with an automatic fallback, so a single provider outage doesn't take it down.
Your 14-day trial needs no card up front and covers 25,000 checked requests. When it ends, upgrade to keep your proxy running — if you don't, AiDren pauses your traffic rather than silently letting it through unprotected.
Yes, in the sense that it sits between your application and the model provider and inspects traffic in both directions. It screens prompts for injection, scans responses for secrets and personal data, and applies per-key policy. It does not replace least-privilege design for your agent's tools, which no filter can do for you.
Lakera Guard is a prompt-injection detection API, and Check Point announced its acquisition of Lakera in September 2025. AiDren also screens for injection, and adds response scanning, model-file scanning and agent egress reporting in one self-serve plan with public pricing. Lakera has a larger dedicated detection-research effort; the comparison page lists where it is ahead.
Yes. The free attack test fires six real prompt-injection and jailbreak attempts at your own system prompt with no account. The full test of about 20 attacks, with protection off versus on, is included in the 14-day trial, no card needed.
No tool does. The UK NCSC says prompt injection attacks “may never be totally mitigated in the way that SQL injection attacks can be”. AiDren blocks the attempts it recognises, logs every decision with a reason, and is designed as one layer alongside least-privilege tool access and human approval for risky actions.
AiDren is built and run by Paul Freek, a UK sole trader registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ZCZ36167). Support is by email at [email protected].
Ten common attack patterns, and what AiDren does about each one. These are attack types, not customer stories.
Hidden instructions in an uploaded PDF
The attack: An agent that reads supplier invoices gets a PDF with a line of white-on-white text telling it to ignore its instructions and print its configuration.
What AiDren does: The text arrives inside the request to the model, so AiDren's judge screens it first. In Enforce mode the request is blocked before it reaches OpenAI, Anthropic or Mistral, and the event is logged with a reason and a confidence score.
A poisoned pickle file from a public repo
The attack: A fine-tuned checkpoint pulled from a public model hub contains a pickle opcode that runs a shell command the moment the file is loaded.
What AiDren does: Route the download through AiDren and the file is checked before it lands. Unsafe opcodes and dangerous globals are blocked with a 403 in Enforce mode, and can never be allowlisted.
An agent calling a destination it shouldn't
The attack: A hijacked agent that can make HTTP calls tries to send data to a server you have never seen before.
What AiDren does: The @aidren/worker-agent package watches your app's outbound connections. Once you lock an allowlist, any new destination is flagged on your Events page and can alert Slack or a webhook. It flags, it doesn't block.
A user-uploaded document in a RAG pipeline
The attack: A customer adds a document to their knowledge base with instructions aimed at the model, not the reader, hoping it gets retrieved into someone else's answer.
What AiDren does: Retrieved chunks travel in the prompt, so they are screened like any other content. Run in Monitor mode first to see what would be blocked on your real traffic before you switch to Enforce.
A jailbreak that a keyword filter misses
The attack: A role-play prompt walks the model round its rules without using any of the words a hand-written block list looks for.
What AiDren does: The judge is a model reading for intent, not a list of strings. Add your own term, regex, topic and threshold rules per key on top, and shadow-test a new policy against live traffic before it goes live.
Personal data leaking out in a response
The attack: A support bot answers a cleverly worded question with another customer's email address and card number.
What AiDren does: Turn on output scanning for the key and responses are checked for personal data and secrets. Choose to redact each match, for example [REDACTED_EMAIL], or block the whole response.
Someone fishing for your system prompt
The attack: A run of messages tries to get the model to repeat its hidden instructions word for word.
What AiDren does: A per-key policy rule flags any response that echoes a long verbatim span of your system prompt, and can block or redact it before it reaches the caller.
Unknown model formats slipping into a build
The attack: A teammate pulls a model in a format your team hasn't reviewed, straight into a CI job.
What AiDren does: Block whole formats per key, such as pickle or joblib, so they are refused before scanning even runs. Safer formats like safetensors are still checked.
Proving to a reviewer what the agent did
The attack: A security or compliance reviewer asks what your agent was sent, what was blocked and who changed the settings.
What AiDren does: Every decision lands on the Events page with a reason and a score, and is exportable or pullable through the Events API. Team changes are attributed by email in an audit log the owner can export as CSV.
Web content steering an agent mid-task
The attack: An agent with web search reads a page that tells it to drop the current task and follow new instructions instead.
What AiDren does: Fetched page content is sent back to the model as part of the conversation, so it is screened before the model acts on it. Run the free attack test against your system prompt to see where it bends.
