Azure OpenAI Guardrails

Azure OpenAI brings the power of OpenAI’s models like GPT-4, GPT-4o, and Whisper to enterprise environments with enhanced security, compliance, and scalability. But production-grade usage still needs robust controls. With Portkey, you can apply customizable guardrails to every Azure OpenAI request, ensuring safety, compliance, and governance without changing your application code.

Azure OpenAI is commonly used for secure enterprise chatbots, document processing, summarization, code generation, and more. With full support for Azure’s API structure and private endpoints, Portkey lets you enforce guardrails, monitor usage, and route requests intelligently across all Azure OpenAI deployments.

With Portkey, you can:

Protect your AI stack from security threats with built-in guardrails
Route requests with precision and zero latency based on guardrail checks
View guardrails verdicts, latency, and pass/fail status for every check in real time.
Enforce org-wide AI safety policies across all your teams, workspaces and models.
Integrate existing guardrail infrastructure through simple webhook calls
Secure vector embedding requests

Portkey supports all Azure OpenAI models out of the box and can be deployed in hours, not weeks, making it the easiest way to bring enterprise-grade control to your AI stack.

World-Class Guardrail Partners

Integrate top guardrail platforms with Portkey to run your custom policies seamlessly — from content filtering and PII detection to moderation and compliance. Ensure every AI request is safe, auditable, and aligned with your enterprise standards.
