What is Guardian Agent?

Guardian Agent is an AI‑powered identity protection platform launched by Umanitek AG to fight large‑language‑model hallucinations, deepfakes, impersonation and other threats to digital identities.

Key Features

  • 24/7 monitoring of what any LLM says about an individual, brand, content or organization.
  • Automatic generation of verifiable digital evidence packs that record when, where and how harmful content appeared.
  • Automated takedown request tooling that streamlines correction requests and holds publishers accountable for libel or infringement.
  • Evidence‑driven support that reduces investigative and legal costs for users.

Advisory Board and Investors

To build a global “immune system” for the internet, Umanitek has assembled an advisory board that includes prominent investors and thought leaders, providing strategic guidance and industry connections.

Funding Round

Alongside the product launch, Umanitek announced a new funding round backed by Bill Tai, Magnus Grimeland, KBW Ventures and the investment arm of a Piëch Family Office. The exact amount was not disclosed.

Impact on Digital Identity Protection

By creating a transparent evidence trail and offering automated remediation, Guardian Agent aims to empower individuals and organizations to defend their digital reputations across platforms such as TikTok, X and law‑enforcement channels, even when data sharing is limited by privacy or geopolitical concerns.
