Sound familiar?

Every week we talk to business owners who had no idea this was happening β€” until it was too late.

πŸ‘οΈ

Your employees are pasting client proposals into ChatGPT. You have no idea.

It happens every day. No malice β€” just convenience. But that data now lives on someone else's servers.

πŸ”Ž

You have 14 AI tools connected to your company β€” you approved 3 of them

The other 11 were installed by employees who thought they were being helpful. Each one is a door you didn't open.

πŸ“‹

A big client asks: 'How do you protect our data?' You freeze.

That question is coming. Companies that can answer it win deals. Companies that can't, lose them.

πŸ”‘

Your intern connected an AI tool that owns everything you paste into it

Many AI tools claim broad IP rights over input. You may have already handed over confidential client work.

πŸšͺ

Someone quit last month. Their AI tool access was never revoked.

They can still access the AI apps they connected β€” including everything those apps can see in your Google Workspace.

πŸ›‘οΈ

31 Google Drive files with client financials are set to 'anyone with the link'

You set those permissions months ago and forgot. A risk scan finds them in 60 seconds.

What Snyk can't tell you

Snyk finds CVEs in your packages. It won't tell you your team is pasting client contracts into ChatGPT. It won't detect the MCP server your intern spun up last Tuesday with full file system access. Different threat. Different tool. Most companies need both.

❌What Traditional Tools Miss

β€’MCP (Model Context Protocol) server vulnerabilities
β€’Agent framework API key exposures
β€’Prompt injection attack vectors
β€’Shadow AI tool integrations
β€’AI service network telemetry leaks
β€’Autonomous agent privilege escalation

βœ…What ThornGrade Finds

β€’All traditional vulnerabilities (same as Snyk)
β€’Plus AI-specific risks no other tool detects
β€’Real-time CVE data via OSV.dev (same database as GitHub)
β€’AI framework security analysis
β€’Behavioral risk assessment (not just code patterns)
β€’Certification badges for client trust

πŸš€ The Bottom Line

Use both. Keep your existing Snyk/GitHub scanning for dependency management. Add ThornGrade for AI-specific security that protects you from the risks your current tools can't see.

The Questions You're Actually Asking

We hear these every week from SMB owners. Here's the honest answer.

β€œCan someone steal my client data through our AI tools?”

Yes β€” and it's more common than you think. AI tools with Google Workspace permissions can read your emails, files, and contacts. ThornGrade maps every integration and shows you exactly what each tool can see.

β€œAre my employees being safe with AI access?”

Probably not intentionally unsafe β€” but uninformed. Most employees don't realize ChatGPT stores their conversations or that some AI tools claim ownership of what you paste in. ThornGrade shows you who's using what.

β€œCan I prove to my clients their information is secure?”

Yes. Your ThornGrade report is shareable proof β€” a monthly scan with a real score. "We got a 91/100 in our last assessment" is a much better answer than "we take security seriously."

β€œDo I need to be technical to use this?”

Not at all. ThornGrade is built for business owners, not IT departments. If you can fill out a form, you can complete the assessment. No software to install. No engineer required.

Here's what the first 3 months look like

This is the story we hear from customers over and over.

Month 1

"Oh sh*t, I had no idea."

Free scan. Score: 52/100. You discover: 14 AI tools connected to your Google Workspace you never approved. 3 employees regularly sharing client files with ChatGPT. 31 Drive files set to "anyone with the link." No AI usage policy. You buy ThornGrade Pro ($199 launch price) for the full fix-it report. You spend a week cleaning up. Score jumps to 78.

Month 2

"Wait, it happened AGAIN?"

ThornGrade Team ($149/mo) re-scans automatically. A new hire connected 2 AI tools on their first day. Someone shared a new client deck publicly. Score dropped from 78 to 71. You get an email: "2 new issues. Score: 71 (↓7)." You fix it in 10 minutes.

Month 3+

"I can prove we're safe."

Your biggest client asks: "How do you protect our data?" You send them your ThornGrade report. Monthly scan. 89/100. "We monitor our AI security continuously." That answer β€” backed by a real score β€” wins deals. $149/mo is not what you're paying for a scan. It's what you pay for ongoing proof that your company is safe.
