Getting Started

Deploy your first AI agent detection trap in under 5 minutes.

Overview

LobsterHoney is an AI agent detection and intelligence platform. It works by deploying intelligent honeypot traps across your infrastructure that are invisible to humans but irresistible to AI agents. When an agent interacts with a trap, LobsterHoney captures detailed intelligence including the agent's behavior patterns, system prompts, and operator identity.

Step 5: View Detections

Return to the dashboard to see your test hit. The scoring engine will classify it based on observed signals. Real AI agent hits will score much higher, as the scoring engine looks for behaviors like:
