Secure, govern and observe AI interactions without rebuilding your architecture
Overview
Bring AI interactions under control
AI is moving into production faster than enterprise controls can keep up. IBM DataPower Interact Gateway brings AI interactions back under control; governing how agents, models, and tools interact with APIs and enterprise systems at runtime.
Features
Mediate and govern the AI interaction layer
Extend your existing API and integration control plane to seamlessly govern, secure, and observe AI interactions across tools, agents, and multiple model providers; without adding parallel AI stacks, reusing what you already trust.

Convert existing APIs, events, and integrations into AI-ready tools that agents can securely discover and invoke enterprise capabilities using evolving A2A interactions and MCP Composers & Enhancer. Reuse third-party APIs, including Kong and Apigee, without rebuilding services or creating new endpoints.
Convert existing APIs and integrations into AI-ready tools that’s easily discovered and consumed by agents using IBM DataPower Interact Gateway’s MCP Enhancer
Built on the DataPower Nano Gateway framework, the Interact Gateway helps mediate and govern LLM and MCP traffic in real time without relying on centralized gateways. The DataPower Nano Gateway provides the ultra-lightweight, Kubernetes-native architecture that delivers high throughput and low-latency performance.
Mediate and govern LLM and MCP traffic in real-time
Pair AI Gateway with Interact Gateway to gain real-time visibility into AI and API interactions through integrated analytics. Understand usage patterns, track behavior and optimize performance with token-based rate limiting, response caching and traffic policies; so you can prevent unexpected cost overruns as AI scales.
End-to-end visibility on AI usage through MCP
Bring AI-ready tools into a human-readable marketplace and searchable catalog, so teams can discover, manage, and govern assets across Interact Gateway, and other environments from one place.
Discoverable and governed AI-ready tools across environments
Use cases
Extend API governance to AI interactions
