Detect in the stream.Not after the bill.
Abstract shapes, enriches and runs detections on security data while it moves. Threats surface before storage, and only the data worth keeping ever reaches your SIEM.

01The problem
Your SIEM was built as one block. You pay for every byte that touches it.
- Detection waits for data to be indexed first
- Upgrade one part, re-platform everything
- One vendor's roadmap sets your security roadmap
- Rules written years ago still decide what you see
- Priced by volume, not by value
- Compliance logs billed at hot-storage rates
- Security data grows 25–30% a year, and so does the bill
- Routing to a second tool means paying to ingest twice
02Price my data
Shape the data before it hits the meter.
Drag to your daily volume, then scroll. Abstract filters, reduces and tiers data in the stream, so your SIEM licence only pays for signal.
Illustrative estimate. Assumes $1,800 per GB/day per year list ingest pricing and the 70% volume reduction from Abstract's published law-firm case study. Excludes Abstract licence.

03The platform
Deconstruct the monolith. Compose your advantage.
Four layers you can adopt one at a time, swap, or scale on their own. Start where your stack hurts most.
-
LAYER 01Collection
The control point before the meter.
Collect from cloud, SaaS, identity, endpoint and network. Normalize to OCSF, ECS or CIM, enrich with asset, identity and threat context, then shape, filter and route by intent.
- 100+ integrations
- OCSF · ECS · CIM
- Route by intent
-
LAYER 02Detection
Rules that run on data in motion.
Streaming detections fire before data lands in storage. Correlate across sources, manage rules as code, and pull in intel from the Abstract Intelligence Gallery.
- In-stream
- Detection as code
- Threat intel built in
-
LAYER 03Retention
Hot when it matters. Cold when it doesn't.
Tier data by value instead of paying hot-storage prices for compliance logs. Keep cold data searchable for audits and investigations.
- Tiered storage
- Searchable cold
- Your cloud

LAYER 04Astro AI
An engineer woven into every layer.
Astro AI triages, investigates and helps author detections, working on clean, enriched data instead of summarizing noise.
- Triage
- Investigation
- Rule authoring
04How it works
One log line. Four stops. Caught before storage.
- 01Raw
- 02Normalize

01 · RAW
An admin policy gets attached to a service account.
A single CloudTrail event, one of millions. In a monolith it waits to be indexed before anything can look at it.
02 · NORMALIZE
Mapped to OCSF in the stream.
Vendor fields become a common schema, so one rule works across AWS, Azure, Okta and the rest.
03 · ENRICH
Context arrives before the question does.
Identity, asset owner and threat intel are attached in flight. The source IP is a known Tor exit node.
04 · DETECT
Alert fires. Nothing has been stored yet.
The rule runs on data in motion. The alert goes to the SOC, the event goes to your SIEM in its schema, the raw copy goes to cold storage.
