Goodfire launched monitors for Baseten customers that inspect an AI model's internal signals rather than having another model review every step. Small detectors flag activity for closer inspection by a separate AI model. Customers can choose risks to monitor and responses including logging, human review or refusal.

Goodfire's tests on Kimi K3 found that monitoring about 1,500 sessions cost roughly $51, versus $233 for a cheaper model checking every step. The probes caught 94% of malicious hacking sessions and referred 8.7% of harmless sessions for another look. Those results come from the company's tests.
