Zen instruments the following AI SDKs to track which models are used and how many tokens are consumed, allowing you to monitor your AI usage and costs:
Aikido is your no nonsense application security platform. One central system that scans your source code & cloud, shows you what vulnerabilities matter, and how to fix them - fast. So you can get back to building.
Zen is a new product by Aikido. Built for developers to level up their security. While Aikido scans, get Zen for always-on protection.
You can use some of Zen’s features without Aikido, of course. Peace of mind is just a few lines of code away.
But you will get the most value by reporting your data to Aikido.
You will need an Aikido account and a token to report events to Aikido. If you don't have an account, you can sign up for free.
Here's how:

By default, Zen will only detect and report attacks to Aikido.
To block requests, set the AIKIDO_BLOCK
environment variable to true
.
See Reporting to Aikido to learn how to send events to Aikido.
Configure Zen using environment variables for authentication, mode settings, debugging, and more.
The following table summarizes the performance of both a typical SQL Query and a typical NoSQL Query with and without the Zen, measured in milliseconds :
Operation | Avg. time w/o Zen | Avg. time w/ Zen | Delta | Delta in % |
---|---|---|---|---|
SQL Query | 1.222 ms | 1.257 ms | +0.035 ms | +3% |
NoSQL Query | 1.090 ms | 1.110 ms | +0.020 ms | +2% |
