AI-first, agent-first DMARC software
DMARC software that does the work
Palisade is the easiest way for IT teams to reach DMARC enforcement, from one domain to thousands. Its AI agent investigates sending sources, configures SPF and DKIM, and moves domains toward p=reject, with DNS integrations that do the setup for you. Traditional DMARC workflows organize reports and leave each change to an operator.
The decision
Which one is right for you?
Pick URIports if…
- You prefer a more traditional URIports workflow with people involved in each enforcement step.
- Your buying criteria center on vendor-specific enterprise requirements.
- Pick URIports if you want web-platform signals (CSP violations, Network Error Logging, certificate expiry, DNS record changes) in the same dashboard as DMARC reports and your team handles all DNS edits itself.
- Pick URIports if you monitor a small set of domains, 30 to 90 days of report history covers your workflow, and a low flat subscription matters more than executed enforcement.
Pick Palisade if…
- You manage anywhere from one domain to thousands.
- You want an AI agent to investigate issues, configure authentication, and move domains toward p=reject.
- Teams already using Claude, OpenAI, or other AI tools can bring the same agent-led operating model to DMARC.

Pricing
URIports pricing explained (and how Palisade compares)
URIports prices five tiers by monthly report volume and domain count, from Sand at a $1.25/mo minimum (10k reports, 3 domains) to Himalaya at $530/mo (10M reports, 400 domains), with a custom enterprise option. Annual billing lowers Pebble through Himalaya, and extra domains come in packs of 10 for $12/mo on Stone and above.

- Report retention is 30 days on Pebble and Stone and 90 days on Mountain and Himalaya; the pricing page does not state a retention period for Sand, and Enterprise offers adjustable retention periods.
- Extra domains cost $12/mo per pack of 10 on Stone and above.

URIports pricing read from their public pricing page on 2026-07-18. Plans and prices may have changed since.
How Palisade prices instead
- Palisade publishes per-domain pricing ($9/domain/mo for domains 2-100, $7 to 1,000, $5 beyond, $2 off per tier on annual billing), so MSP cost tracks client count; URIports gates tiers by monthly report quota and domain caps (3, 5, 25, 100, 400).
- Palisade includes unlimited report retention on every paid plan; URIports retains report data for 30 days on Pebble and Stone and 90 days on Mountain and Himalaya (no retention period is published for Sand).
- Palisade includes API access on every plan, including Free; URIports' API starts at the Stone tier ($33/mo).
- Palisade's agent executes enforcement, configuring SPF and DKIM and tightening policy to p=reject; URIports monitors and alerts while your team makes every DNS and policy change by hand.
| Palisade plan | Published price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 1 NFR domain for your own MSP, capped at 1,000 emails/mo |

Customers
MSPs that made the switch
“We increased our meetings booked by 21% and slept better at night knowing our emails are now secured”
“Palisade allowed our team to deploy DMARC on our domains in minutes instead of hours and making sure our clients are compliant with cutting edge security recommendations from Microsoft.”
Monitoring and alerts vs executed enforcement
URIports collects DMARC aggregate and failure reports, plus SMTP TLS-RPT and browser security reports, and organizes them into a dashboard. Its DMARC page frames the product as decision support: it shows which sending sources are unknown, which fail SPF or DKIM alignment, and how much mail a stricter policy would affect. The user makes the enforcement call and edits DNS themselves; setup starts with manually adding a generated DNS record, then the platform watches and notifies via email, push, webhooks, or Telegram.
Palisade's agent executes the work instead of reporting on it. It identifies legitimate senders, configures SPF and DKIM, and progressively tightens policy to p=reject. For an MSP running dozens of client domains, that difference is operational: with URIports, every quarantine or reject step on every domain is a manual DNS change your team performs; with Palisade, enforcement is the product's job and your team reviews the outcome.
Report quotas and retention caps vs per-domain pricing
URIports meters processed reports per month: 10k on Sand up to 10M on Himalaya, with domain caps at each tier (3, 5, 25, 100, 400) and extra domains in packs of 10 for $12/mo on Stone and above. Retention is 30 days on Pebble and Stone and 90 days on Mountain and Himalaya; the pricing page does not publish a retention period for Sand. API access starts at Stone ($33/mo) and OIDC SSO at Mountain ($133/mo). The pricing page states email volume itself is unlimited.
Palisade meters one thing: domains. Pricing is published at $9/domain/mo for domains 2-100, $7 to 1,000, and $5 beyond, with $2 off every tier on annual billing, plus a Free plan for one NFR domain and a 15-day trial with no card. Email volume and report retention are unlimited on every paid plan, and the API ships on every plan including Free, so you never plan around a quota, a retention window, or a tier upgrade.
Where URIports fits and where MSP scale strains it
URIports serves teams that want DMARC monitoring alongside web-platform signals: CSP violations, Network Error Logging, certificate expiry, and DNS record changes in one place. Its FAQ addresses MSP use directly: group client domains with labels, invite clients as team members scoped to their own domains, and add domains in packs of 10 without changing tiers. That works when clients are few and someone in-house owns the DNS edits each enforcement step requires.
At MSP scale the model strains. Report quotas and domain caps force tier planning as clients are added, 30 or 90 days of retention limits look-back during a slow policy rollout, and every enforcement change across every client domain stays manual. URIports fits a team monitoring a handful of domains that wants web reporting signals in the same dashboard and is comfortable executing DMARC enforcement by hand.
Migration
Switching from URIports takes three steps
Batch-import your domains
Bring your client domains into Palisade in bulk, or let your ConnectWise, HaloPSA, or Autotask integration sync them automatically.
Run both platforms in parallel
DMARC reporting supports multiple recipients, so Palisade and URIports receive the same reports during the overlap window. Nothing breaks while you compare.
Cut DNS over on your schedule
Point records at Palisade's hosted infrastructure (100% DNS uptime guarantee), then retire the old setup when you're satisfied.
