What is Stigg?
Stigg adds credit reservation and settlement for AI operations days after its agent SDK.
Stigg can now reserve credits before an AI operation starts and settle the actual cost when it finishes. It follows the beta Agent Governance SDK, an open-source library built on Stigg's entitlements engine. Earlier October releases added an Airwallex billing backend, credit usage grouped by feature and a Stripe Projects listing.
What is Zluri?
Zluri is turning SaaS management into identity governance, and Segregation of Duties is the pivot.
Zluri now covers discovery, access requests, access reviews and Segregation of Duties enforcement in one product. September releases spread SoD conflict signals into both access requests and certifications, and they gave approvers more control over who decides. The latest release closes a data-trust gap: JDBC, on-prem AD, CSV and SDK sources now show when they last refreshed.
Stigg vs Zluri: editorial side-by-side
Stigg
6.3FINANCE
Stigg adds credit reservation and settlement for AI operations days after its agent SDK.
◆ Current state
Stigg can now reserve credits before an AI operation starts and settle the actual cost when it finishes. It follows the beta Agent Governance SDK, an open-source library built on Stigg's entitlements engine. Earlier October releases added an Airwallex billing backend, credit usage grouped by feature and a Stripe Projects listing.
◆ Where it's heading
Credits have become Stigg's main pricing unit, and the product is adapting them to AI workloads whose cost isn't known up front. Reserve and settle, together with the governance SDK, turns the entitlements engine into a spending control for agents.
◆ Prediction
Expect the governance SDK to use reservations directly for agent limits, and more reporting on reserved versus settled usage.
Zluri
7.5FINANCE
Zluri is turning SaaS management into identity governance, and Segregation of Duties is the pivot.
◆ Current state
Zluri now covers discovery, access requests, access reviews and Segregation of Duties enforcement in one product. September releases spread SoD conflict signals into both access requests and certifications, and they gave approvers more control over who decides. The latest release closes a data-trust gap: JDBC, on-prem AD, CSV and SDK sources now show when they last refreshed.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from SaaS discovery and spend toward the IGA territory of policy, certification, and remediation. Each release either adds a governance control or makes the underlying identity data more trustworthy. The Workflows v2 canvas, SoD detection and source prioritization all support automated, auditable access decisions.
◆ Prediction
SoD and Workflows v2 are likely to move from early access and beta to general availability. Expect deeper links between them, such as SoD violations triggering canvas playbooks directly.
