Nudge Security
A security tool for the problem every IT team has but few can actually see: employees signing up for random SaaS tools and AI apps with their work email, one login at a time, until nobody knows what your company's data is actually connected to.

Description
Every company has 'shadow IT' — the SaaS tools and AI apps employees sign up for on their own, outside any approval process — but almost none can actually list what those tools are or what access they've been granted. Nudge Security's job is to make that invisible sprawl visible: it discovers every SaaS and AI application connected to your organization, not just the ones IT officially rolled out.
Nudge Security is a cloud-native SaaS security platform that integrates with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Okta, Salesforce, Snowflake, and Zoom (plus a browser extension) to surface shadow SaaS and AI usage, score OAuth grant risk, monitor third-party and supply-chain exposure, and enforce identity governance (SSO, MFA, access controls) across discovered accounts. It ships enterprise features like SSO, role-based access, and a public API at no extra cost, includes a database of 200,000+ SaaS vendor security profiles, and can automate remediation playbooks ('nudges') rather than just producing a report. It offers a 2-week free trial with no credit card, with enterprise pricing available on request; it holds a 4.7/5 on Gartner and 5/5 on G2, and one case study (KarmaCheck) reports 150% ROI recovery within six months.
💬 Our review
The short version: if your security or IT team genuinely doesn't know how many SaaS and AI tools employees have connected to company accounts, Nudge Security's discovery-first approach answers a question most teams can't currently answer at all — and the 2-week free trial makes it low-friction to find out how bad your shadow IT actually is.
Against broader SaaS management platforms (like Torii or Zylo, which focus more on spend and license optimization) or pure CASB tools, Nudge Security's edge is treating AI tool sprawl as a first-class problem alongside classic shadow IT, and pairing discovery with automated remediation nudges rather than leaving you with a static inventory to act on manually. The reviews (4.7 Gartner, 5.0 G2) are strong, though as with most enterprise security tools, real pricing only shows up after a sales conversation, which makes it hard to compare cost upfront against competitors. It's overkill for a five-person startup with no compliance requirements, but for any organization past ~50 employees worried about OAuth grants to random AI tools, it fills a real blind spot.
