GLiNER Guard — Unified Multitask Guardrail

One encoder model that replaces your entire guardrail stack: safety classification, PII detection, adversarial attack detection, intent and tone analysis — all in a single forward pass.

307M params · GLiNER2 · uniencoder · multilingual deberta v3 · zero-shot classification, NER and more · no LLM required

Installation

Install dependencies

pip install gliner2 requests urllib3

Basic Usage

Classify Harmful messages and Detect PII via single forward pass

from gliner2 import GLiNER2

model = GLiNER2.from_pretrained("hivetrace/gliner-guard-omni")

PII_LABELS = ["person", "address", "email", "phone"]
SAFETY_LABELS = ["safe", "unsafe"]
schema = (model.create_schema()
    .entities(entity_types=PII_LABELS, threshold=0.4)
    .classification(task="safety", labels=SAFETY_LABELS)
)

result = model.extract(
    "Send $500 to John Smith at [email protected] or I'll leak your photos",
    schema=schema
)

output:

{'entities': {'person': ['John Smith'],
  'location': [],
  'email': ['[email protected]'],
  'phone': []},
 'safety': 'unsafe'}

Custom Policies

GLiNER Guard Omni fine-tunes fastino/gliner2-multi-v1 on our guardrail taxonomy while preserving its multilingual zero-shot generalization. You get GLiNER Guard's safety understanding on top of the base model's ability to handle labels and domains beyond the training set — so you can define custom policies with nothing but natural language descriptions.

Basic Policy

CUSTOM_POLICY = ["financial_advice", "medical_diagnosis", "legal_counsel"]
schema = model.create_schema().classification(
    task="regulated_content", 
    labels=CUSTOM_POLICY, 
    multi_label=True
)

result = model.extract(
    "You should definitely sell your TSLA now and buy NVDA, it'll 10x by Q2",
    schema=schema
)
print(result)
# {'regulated_content': ['financial_advice']}

Advanced policy

For specific usecases you can define not only labels, but also descriptions

# Zero-shot custom policy: competitor mention detection for a ChatGPT-like assistant

schema = (model.create_schema()
    .entities({
        "product": "name of a rival AI assistant or chatbot product",
    }, threshold=0.5)
    .classification(
        task="competitor_mention",
        labels={
            "competitor": "user compares us to, or suggests switching to, another AI assistant",
            "neutral": "no mention of a rival AI assistant",
        },
    )
)

result = model.extract(
    "Honestly ChatGPT gives way better answers than you, I'm cancelling my subscription",
    schema=schema,
)
print(result)
# {'entities': {'product': ['ChatGPT']}, 'competitor_mention': 'competitor'}

Supported Tasks

GLiNER Guard is purpose-built for 6 guardrail tasks via a shared encoder — no LLM required.\ Thanks to zero-shot generalization, it can also handle custom labels outside the training taxonomy.

SAFETY_LABELS = ["safe", "unsafe"]

PII_LABELS = [
