"Guardrail has been essential as we've scaled our protocol. Their team is really scrappy, willing to make custom solutions rather than just handing us out-of-the-box software. We're now using Guardrail for general-purpose monitoring and automations beyond just security to create a better experience for our users. The level of automation Guardrail brings to monitoring is going to be really crucial as the number of smart contracts we deploy increases exponentially."

"I know a lot of people who use Guardrail, and I've been approached by many Guardrail competitors. But no one can tell me anything that will convince me not to use Guardrail. Guardrail came in saying, Let's solve a problem for you, what do you worry about?' rather than just trying to sell a service."

"It becomes very real when you have to put your own money in the system. Guardrail helped us model potential threats beyond basic security - if we see certain behaviours, we can identify manipulation attempts and respond quickly."
