Because of the incredibly large number of LLMs that exist, and the growing numbers of new ones each and every day, blocking has proven to be a failed strategy.  It is near impossible to have a complete, up to date catalogue of which LLMs to block.

Portal26’s  Real-time GenAI tool discovery capabilities  is designed specifically to find all LLMs, even if not catalogued, to minimize the real risks unsanctioned use brings to the organization as well as discover areas of opportunity. 

Portal26's platform enables real-time policy enforcement through instant intervention and education. When employees attempt to access prohibited AI tools or systems, the platform automatically displays popup notifications to inform them of policy violations. Beyond simple blocking, we support organizations in fostering responsible AI use through educational prompts and guidance. Our platform helps you move from mere restriction to active enablement, ensuring employees understand not just what they can't do, but how they can use AI tools effectively and safely.
