# AI Agent Import

Akto lets you seamlessly import **AI agents** such as **AWS Bedrock, Azure AI Foundry, Databricks, Google Vertex AI, IBM Watsonx**, or even your **custom agent** into **AI Agent Security**. With just the agent endpoint URL and optional configuration, you can start monitoring and scanning agent activity instantly.
