With this integration, OpenAI plans to introduce native automated security testing into the development lifecycle of AI agents.

According to Srinivas Narayanan, Promptfoo’s engineering expertise will help organizations deploy secure and reliable AI applications at enterprise scale.

Technology used by Fortune 500 companies

Promptfoo’s platform is already trusted by more than 25% of Fortune 500 companies.

The team led by Ian Webster and Michael D’Angelo has developed a suite of tools that includes:

  • an open-source CLI interface
  • libraries for LLM evaluation and security testing
  • red-teaming tools for AI applications

Security becomes a core requirement for enterprise AI

As companies deploy AI agents in real operational workflows, evaluation, security and compliance are becoming critical requirements.

The integration of Promptfoo into the OpenAI Frontier platform will enable organizations to:

  • test AI systems before deployment
  • identify risks early in the development process
  • maintain documentation for audit and compliance

OpenAI and Promptfoo also confirmed that they will continue developing the open-source project, while expanding enterprise capabilities within the Frontier platform.
