Perforce launches Agentic Gateway to govern AI agents and cut token costs

Perforce Software Inc. today expanded its Perforce Intelligence lineup with an agentic gateway for managing artificial intelligence agents, an autonomous testing platform driven by natural language and a unified compliance tool that turns written security policies into continuous enforcement.

The DevOps company is pitching the releases at enterprises and regulated industries trying to move AI from experiments into production without losing control of cost, governance and quality. Perforce frames the problem as a control and trust gap that widens as AI agents touch more of how software gets built and shipped.

At the center is Perforce Agentic Gateway, an orchestration layer that sits in front of the Model Context Protocol, the standard for connecting AI agents to tools and data. The gateway gives organizations a single install and guided setup to access Perforce’s MCP portfolio across code, intellectual property, data, infrastructure and testing. It can also govern third-party MCPs and the company said it reduces token consumption, a recurring cost as agent usage scales. The gateway is available now through GitHub.
