Why STING - What Makes Us Different
Why STING Is Different
In a crowded AI market, STING stands out. Here’s why forward-thinking organizations choose STING over alternatives.
The Growing Market for Secure AI
You Shouldn’t Have to Choose
Most organizations face an impossible decision when it comes to AI:
Risk Exposure
Sending sensitive data to the cloud
Million Dollar Build
Building your own AI infrastructure
Fall Behind
While others race ahead with AI
Compliance Nightmares
Meeting regulatory requirements manually
The Numbers That Matter
Exclusive Technologies You Can’t Get Anywhere Else
The Problem: Traditional knowledge bases expose raw data. Your sensitive files sit in searchable databases where anyone with access can see everything.
The STING Solution: Honey Jars encrypt your knowledge end-to-end. Bee AI can search and answer questions without anyone seeing the raw files. Your knowledge is accessible, but your data stays protected.
Unique Advantage: This is the ONLY platform that lets you package expertise into secure, sellable containers. Turn your institutional knowledge into revenue-generating assets.
- Create unlimited knowledge bases (Pro+)
- AES-256 end-to-end encryption
- Fine-grained access control
- Marketplace monetization (Enterprise)
- 85% revenue share - highest in the industry
The Problem: Other platforms either scramble your data permanently (making reports useless) or don't scramble it at all (creating security risks).
The STING Solution: Our proprietary technology scrambles PII during AI processing, then automatically reconstructs reports with original data. Your outputs look exactly like they shouldβminus the privacy risks.
How It Works:
- Sensitive data detected and scrambled before AI sees it
- AI processes scrambled data and generates report
- Original data automatically restored in final report
- AI agent reviews report for leaks (Enterprise)
- Passkey required to access final report
This gives you the best of both worlds: complete security during processing, and readable reports at the end.
The Problem: Enterprise AI deployments are isolated silos. Each department builds their own solution. Knowledge doesn't cross-pollinate. Redundant work everywhere.
The STING Solution: Revolutionary team collaboration through AI-coordinated "swarms." Multiple AI agents work together across departments, sharing knowledge while maintaining security boundaries.
Unique Capabilities:
- Multi-site deployment across global offices
- Department-level isolation with controlled sharing
- Tasks intelligently distributed across teams
- Knowledge automatically cross-pollinates
- Central management with distributed execution
- Global search across all knowledge bases (with permissions)
*Available in Enterprise Swarm edition only. Expected Q4 2025.
The Problem: Integrating AI with enterprise systems is painful. Custom code for every database. Authentication nightmares. Security holes everywhere.
The STING Solution: Pre-built, security-hardened connectors for 15+ enterprise systems. Row-level security built in. Connection pooling with automatic failover.
Supported Systems:
- Databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB
- Authentication: Active Directory, Okta, Azure AD, LDAP
- File Storage: SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, Box
- CRM: Salesforce, HubSpot, Dynamics 365
- Collaboration: Jira, Confluence, Notion, Slack
- Custom: REST APIs, GraphQL, Webhooks
Security Built-In:
- OAuth 2.0 / SAML authentication
- Row-level security enforcement
- Encrypted credential storage
- Audit logging for all access
- Connection pooling and rate limiting
The Problem: Most AI chatbots forget everything when you close the tab. Enterprise AI needs memory that persists, learns, and shares appropriately.
The STING Solution: Sophisticated 4-tier memory system that gets smarter over time:
Memory Tiers:
- Working Memory:
- Current conversation context
- Active task state
- Immediate references
- Cleared when task completes
- Short-Term Memory:
- Session history
- Recent interactions
- User preferences
- Cleared after session ends
- Long-Term Memory: Pro+
- Learned patterns and insights
- Historical context
- User-specific knowledge
- Persists across sessions
- Shared Knowledge: Enterprise
- Organization-wide learnings
- Department best practices
- Cross-team insights
- Permission-based access
Why This Matters: Your AI gets smarter with every interaction. Insights from one department benefit the whole organization. No more starting from scratch every time.
*CE includes working and short-term memory. Long-term and shared memory in Pro/Enterprise.
The Problem: One-size-fits-all interfaces don't work for enterprises. Different roles need different tools. Context switching kills productivity.
