Manifest is a software and Artificial Intelligence (AI) supply chain transparency platform that manages the complete Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and AI Bill of Materials (AIBOM) lifecycle for enterprises. The platform automates SBOM generation across entire application fleets in formats including Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX), CycloneDX, and Vulnerability Exploitability Exchange (VEX), while analyzing binaries, embedded code, and production deployments beyond traditional repository scanning. Manifest AI Risk extends these capabilities to GenAI models and datasets by enabling continuous monitoring of AI model provenance, enforcing governance policies, and tracking model lineage from development through deployment to address the blind spots organizations face when adopting large language models and AI systems.

The platform provides real-time vulnerability tracking with automated exposure reports that enable security teams to immediately identify blast radius during supply chain incidents like Log4Shell, reducing response time from weeks to minutes. Manifest facilitates vendor compliance by soliciting SBOMs from third-party software providers, validating submitted artifacts, healing format inconsistencies, and generating human-readable risk reports for procurement teams. The platform integrates throughout the software development lifecycle with automated policy enforcement, secure SBOM sharing with customers and regulators, and bi-directional VEX document support that contextualizes whether known vulnerabilities actually impact specific deployments. Organizations use Manifest to transform SBOM compliance from a regulatory burden into actionable security intelligence.
