Chat usage isn't confined to one vendor
Employees move between ChatGPT, Gemini, and internal tools depending on the day, so vendor-specific monitoring alone leaves gaps.
By usage
Employees use whatever chat tool is fastest, and that changes by the day - ChatGPT, Gemini, an internal chatbot. Sensitive data moves through prompts regardless of which one, and vendor-by- vendor monitoring leaves gaps between them.
Why it matters
Employees move between ChatGPT, Gemini, and internal tools depending on the day, so vendor-specific monitoring alone leaves gaps.
A pasted contract, customer record, or credential in a chat box bypasses every DLP control built for documents and email.
Most organizations have more chat-tool usage than approved licenses, discovered only after an incident.
What Lineation does
One policy layer covers chat activity across providers instead of a separate integration per vendor.
Prompts and responses are inspected for PII, secrets, and policy violations as they happen.
Every user and chat tool in use surfaces automatically, including tools nobody explicitly approved.
A queryable record of chat activity is ready for SOC 2, ISO, and internal review.
How it works
Where a provider exposes an admin or audit API, it's connected directly; where it doesn't, gateway-level monitoring fills the gap.
Users and tools appear in the inventory automatically as activity is observed.
Prompts and responses are scanned for PII, secrets, and policy violations.
Redaction and default-deny rules apply consistently regardless of which chat tool is in use.
Violations route to your SIEM/SOAR; a durable record stays queryable for audit.
FAQ
Any provider with an admin or audit API integrates directly; gateway-level monitoring extends coverage to tools without one.
Those pages cover a vendor-specific admin API integration in depth. This page covers the provider-agnostic pattern of governing chat across whichever tools your teams actually use.
Where a compliance or audit key with content access is available, yes; otherwise coverage is limited to activity metadata.
Yes - usage surfaces from gateway traffic and available provider APIs, not from a self-reported tool list.
No. Monitoring runs against APIs and gateway traffic with no added step for the end user.
Audit trails map to SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR, with exportable evidence for review.
