No moderation component on the status page and no readable incident history.\n\n**Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API.** A public OpenAPI document, ten detection types in one call, tool-call scanning, a remote MCP server, rotating API keys and OAuth roles suit teams already on Strata Cloud Manager. Access needs Software NGFW credits bought through sales, with no public price, trial or self-serve signup, and payloads flagged malicious are kept for up to 10 years.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Mistral Moderation API\n\n1. Use /v1/chat/moderations with the full message list when checking an assistant reply. The raw endpoint has no context\n2. Read category_scores and set your own threshold per category. The booleans use Mistral's cut-offs\n3. Pin mistral-moderation-2603. The 2411 model was retired on 31 March 2026\n4. Move to a paid workspace or zero retention if the text you screen shouldn't train models\n5. For a Mistral-hosted agent, set the moderation_llm_v2 guardrail with block_on_error true and skip the separate call\n\n### Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API\n\n1. Send `x-pan-token` and an `ai_profile` with `profile_name` or `profile_id` on every scan. Both come from Strata Cloud Manager, and a key works only in its own region\n2. Put earlier turns first in `contents`. Only the last element is scanned, and the rest is context\n3. Read `action` (allow or block) and `category`, then check `timeout` and `error`, because a detector that failed is reported in `errors` with a 200\n4. Keep synchronous requests under 2 MB and asynchronous ones under 5 MB and 25 items, and fetch at most 5 scan or report IDs a call, 10 calls a minute\n5. For MCP, connect to `/mcp` on the regional host with `x-pan-token` and `x-pan-profile` headers, and call `pan_inline_scan` yourself before and after generation\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Mistral Moderation API or Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API?\n\nPrisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API scores 62.8 (B) on agent readiness against Mistral Moderation API's 58.4 (C), and leads in 2 of 7 scored categories. Mistral Moderation API leads on schema \u0026 documentation, agent ergonomics, payments \u0026 pricing and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Mistral Moderation API and Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API need an API key?\n\nMistral Moderation API needs an API key. Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Mistral Moderation API and Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Mistral Moderation API has a hosted endpoint at https://api.mistral.ai/v1/moderations and Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API at https://service.api.aisecurity.paloaltonetworks.com/v1/scan/sync/request.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mistral-moderation-vs-prisma-airs.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mistral-moderation-vs-prisma-airs.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"mistral-moderation\", \"b\": \"prisma-airs\"}`.
