The AI landscape is evolving rapidly, transforming how organizations access, process, and leverage real-time web data. AI agents now autonomously retrieve and analyze live data, advancing research, data enrichment, and automated decision-making. However, as these systems become more autonomous, ensuring the accuracy, reliability, and security of the data they process is more critical than ever. AI agents are particularly vulnerable to indirect injection attacks, where hidden malicious commands are embedded within seemingly normal data, posing significant risks.
That’s why we’re excited to announce our strategic partnership with Pillar Security, a pioneering company in AI security, to deliver safe, secure, and enterprise-ready AI search and web access. By integrating Tavily’s best-in-class web access layer for AI agents with Pillar’s advanced security guardrails, we’re establishing a new standard for trustworthy, proactive, and reliable AI-powered retrieval.
Ensuring Secure, Trustworthy AI Retrieval
Tavily and Pillar Security are establishing a new industry benchmark by ensuring that AI agents not only access real-time web data but do so securely and without risk of manipulation.
Since AI models are only as reliable as the data they retrieve, unverified or manipulated sources can introduce misinformation, skewed insights, or unintended behaviors. As AI agents interact with an ever-growing range of web sources, it is essential to safeguard against these risks at the foundation.
This partnership directly addresses one of AI’s biggest challenges: ensuring safe, accurate, and security-enhanced real-time information retrieval. While many AI search tools focus solely on access, Tavily + Pillar goes further by embedding security at the core—making it the most trusted, enterprise-ready solution for AI-powered web access.
Why This Partnership Matters for AI Builders
Organizations deploying AI agents must safeguard internal data while ensuring that externally sourced information is accurate, safe, and free from manipulation.
Bridging the AI Security Gap:
- Web scraping, real-time search, and RAG pipelines can expose AI systems to malicious content and manipulation.
- Enterprises require more than just accuracy—security, compliance, and data integrity are now critical differentiators.
- Tavily + Pillar ensures only verified, high-quality, and structured data reaches AI systems, allowing teams to build with confidence and precision.
