What AI EdgeLabs does

AI EdgeLabs is an AI-native runtime security platform for workloads, containers, AI models, and AI agents operating across hybrid cloud, Kubernetes, GPU clusters, distributed edge, sovereign, and air-gapped environments. Delivered as a single lightweight container per host, the platform runs four parallel detection pipelines — network (kernel-level packet capture with DPDK for line-rate inspection), workload (eBPF kernel probes for syscalls, processes, and filesystem changes), vulnerability (CVE scoring using EPSS, CISA KEV, and an internal exploitation velocity metric), and AI agent (the open-source Parallax runtime) — unified by a correlation engine. Detection latency is 0.8 ms p99 with on-host ONNX-optimized ML inference, sub-4% CPU overhead per node, and zero data egress by design to support fully offline, air-gapped operation. The company is offered by Scalarr, Inc., a Delaware-incorporated parent founded in 2016; AI EdgeLabs launched as a commercial product in 2021 under founder-CEO Inna Ushakova, drawing on the team's decade of operational experience responding to named nation-state attacks on Ukrainian critical infrastructure.

The company's customers include enterprises across smart cities (Rekor), energy (Cuerva), hyperconverged infrastructure (Scale Computing), oil and gas, gaming, eCommerce, and GPU cloud, alongside government and defense buyers requiring sovereign deployments. Pricing is structured as a four-tier subscription (Free up to 3 nodes, Pro $349/month up to 10 nodes, Growth $799/month up to 30 nodes, and custom-priced Enterprise with on-prem/air-gapped deployment, multi-tenant management, and custom SLAs), with a 20% annual discount, a startup program (up to 30% off for under $1.5M funding and under 10 team members), and an agency/MSP partner program. Distribution combines product-led growth (self-serve portal with sub-10-minute deployment), enterprise field sales, channel partners, and an AWS Marketplace listing; a flagship February 2026 strategic partnership with Advantech embeds the platform in industrial edge and IoT devices, with the Compliance Center positioning the offering around EU CRA, NIS2, HIPAA, ISO/IEC 62443, PCI DSS, FedRAMP, and NIST requirements.

Core offering

AI EdgeLabs is an AI-native runtime security platform delivered as a single lightweight container that detects and responds to threats across workloads, containers, Kubernetes, AI agents, and edge/IoT environments in real time with sub-millisecond latency. The platform unifies network protection, workload security, vulnerability management, AI/LLM agent security (powered by the open-source Parallax engine), and a Compliance Center — all inference runs on-host with zero data egress, supporting hybrid cloud, GPU clusters, Kubernetes, distributed edge, and air-gapped sovereign deployments.

Product overview

AI EdgeLabs is a unified AI-native runtime security platform delivered as a single lightweight container that deploys across every workload type. The core platform (AI EdgeLabs Platform) provides network protection, workload security, vulnerability management, and a Compliance Center — all running entirely on-host with zero data egress. AI/LLM Security (powered by the open-source Parallax engine) and Kubernetes & Container Security extend the platform for AI agent and containerized workloads. The AI Security Assistant & Playbooks feature adds AI-driven investigation and automated response. The platform targets hybrid cloud, Kubernetes, GPU clusters, distributed edge, sovereign, and air-gapped environments.
