Vigil Guard joins NVIDIA Inception

We are pleased to announce that Vigil Guard PSA is a member of the NVIDIA Inception program, the global program for startups building in AI and accelerated computing.

Membership gives us access to NVIDIA's technical resources, preferred terms on hardware and software, and its network of investors and partners. In practice we are using it on two fronts: to build an integration with the NVIDIA ecosystem, and to strengthen our investor conversations at the next stages of Vigil Guard's growth.

Our first technical focus inside the program is an integration with NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails, the open-source toolkit for adding runtime guardrails to LLM applications. NeMo Guardrails supports several control types, among them input, dialog, retrieval, execution, and output rails, and lets teams extend the system through custom actions.

For Vigil Guard, this integration is a way to widen deployment options and give customers more architectural freedom. Organizations that already use the NVIDIA ecosystem, or that plan to deploy NeMo Guardrails, will be able to connect Vigil Guard as an external detection layer. In that model, a custom action sends the prompt or the model output to Vigil Guard, and the system returns a decision for the input and output rails: ALLOW, SANITIZE, or BLOCK.

This lets customers keep NeMo Guardrails as their guardrail orchestration layer while using Vigil Guard as the detection, classification, and audit engine. We add coverage that matters in regulated and multilingual environments: native detection of Polish and other languages, fully on-premises deployment with no external calls, and a per-prompt audit trail that exports to a SIEM.

The work is in progress. We will publish a working connector and a setup guide once the technical work is complete.

We are investing in fast growth and preparing for investor conversations. To that end, we are joining Inception Capital Connect, which helps NVIDIA Inception program members connect with funds in the NVIDIA VC Alliance Network.

For us, it is a way to open the right investor channels early, with firms interested in AI and deep tech. If you invest in that network, you will be able to find us there soon.
