Prompt Inspector vs PromptGuard

Prompt Inspector has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

PromptGuard is a security layer between an application and its LLM provider, inspecting requests before they reach the model. It describes 15 detectors across six layers for risks such as prompt injection, jailbreaks, PII, data exfiltration, toxicity, fraud, secrets, malware and tool injection. The product says it detects and redacts 43 PII types using reversible tokenization. Its SDK can automatically instrument supported LLM calls with one initialization call while leaving existing provider code unchanged. Listed providers include OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Azure, Bedrock, Mistral, Cohere, DeepSeek, Groq, HuggingFace, Ollama and vLLM. Deployment options include managed cloud, hybrid self-hosting and air-gapped installations. In zero-retention mode, prompt and response content is not stored; default security events include a shortened preview and content hash. PromptGuard says customer prompts, completions and documents are not used to train, fine-tune or evaluate models. The Free tier is permanent and includes 20,000 scans a month, one API key, one project and 24-hour log retention. Paid plans include a 14-day money-back guarantee, not a trial.
