What is Continum?

Continum is a compliance infrastructure that audits every LLM interaction in your application without adding latency to user responses. It provides comprehensive safety and compliance monitoring for AI applications.

Get started in 5 minutes

Install the SDK and start auditing your LLM calls

​
The Problem

Modern AI applications face critical challenges:
  • LLMs can leak PII, generate biased content, or be jailbroken
  • Manual review doesn’t scale to production traffic
  • Blocking calls for compliance checks adds 2-5 seconds of latency
  • Existing tools are either too slow or miss edge cases

​
The Solution

Continum provides zero-latency compliance auditing with a single function: protect(). Wrap any LLM call and get automatic compliance monitoring without changing your code structure. One line to secure every LLM call: 
import { protect } from '@continum/sdk';
import OpenAI from 'openai';

const openai = new OpenAI();

// Wrap your LLM call with protect()
const response = await protect(
  () => openai.chat.completions.create({
    model: 'gpt-4',
    messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }]
  }),
  {
    apiKey: process.env.CONTINUM_API_KEY!
  },
  {
    preset: 'customer-support',
    comply: ['GDPR', 'SOC2']
  }
);

// ✅ User gets response instantly (0ms added latency)
// ✅ Compliance audit runs in background
// ✅ Violations appear in dashboard with real-time alerts
How it works:
  1. Intercepts your LLM call transparently
  2. Returns response instantly to your users (zero latency)
  3. Audits asynchronously in isolated sandboxes
  4. Validates compliance using Claude as the judge
  5. Sends alerts to Slack, PagerDuty, Discord, or webhooks
  6. Stores signals in your dashboard for monitoring
Global configuration (recommended): 
import { continum } from '@continum/sdk';

continum.configure({
  apiKey: process.env.CONTINUM_API_KEY!,
  preset: 'customer-support',
  comply: ['GDPR', 'SOC2'],
  alerts: {
    slack: process.env.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL,
    pagerduty: process.env.PAGERDUTY_KEY
  }
});

// Now use protect() without passing config every time
const response = await continum.protect(
  () => openai.chat.completions.create({...})
);
