PortEden vs Hathr AI
Hathr AI is a Claude-only environment hosted in AWS GovCloud. PortEden is a universal data firewall — works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, and any MCP-compatible client, while leaving your existing email, calendar, and drive in place.
- You use more than one AI vendor (Claude + ChatGPT + Gemini + Copilot).
- You need controls on your existing tools — Gmail, Outlook, Drive, SharePoint, Jira — not a separate AI workspace.
- You're not deploying exclusively in AWS GovCloud.
- You want users to keep using Claude Desktop / ChatGPT / Gemini directly instead of a portal.
- Your AI strategy is single-vendor Claude and will stay that way.
- You're already standardized on AWS GovCloud and need an environment that runs entirely inside that boundary.
- Your workflow centers on a hosted Claude UI rather than agents acting on your existing data.

How each handles real scenarios
A litigation associate wants Claude to summarize a 40-message Gmail thread without leaking opposing counsel emails
Install PortEden's Gmail connector. Add a per-agent rule that blocks any thread containing senders from external opposing-counsel domains. Claude (Desktop, Web, or via MCP) sees the rest of the inbox unchanged; the blocked thread returns a redaction stub.
The associate would need to copy the relevant messages into Hathr's hosted Claude environment manually. Gmail itself is untouched — Hathr does not proxy live Gmail or Outlook traffic from third-party AI clients.
A SecOps team wants one audit log covering 'every AI call against company data' across Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini
Single proxy across all three vendors writes one JSONL audit stream per agent identity, exportable to S3 or any SIEM. Filters by user, tool, and rule that fired.
Hathr's audit log covers prompts and responses inside the Hathr Claude environment. Activity in ChatGPT or Gemini is out of scope — you'd need a separate solution for non-Claude traffic.
A regulated firm needs AWS GovCloud residency for all AI prompts and responses
PortEden offers US and EU residency but not GovCloud-only deployment today. Self-hosted PortEden on customer GovCloud is on the roadmap; ask sales for current status.
Hathr's GovCloud-native architecture is its strongest differentiator here. If GovCloud residency is non-negotiable and you're Claude-only, Hathr is the better fit today.
