Connect, compare, and find your use case
Connect PgBeam to LangChain, Claude Code, Cursor, Prisma, and more. See how PgBeam compares to RDS Proxy, PgBouncer, Supavisor, and Neon, and find the use case that matches your agent.
Integrations
Give a specific tool or agent safe Postgres access.
PgBeam + LangChain
Point LangChain's SQLDatabase or any Postgres tool at a scoped PgBeam connection string. Your agent reads real data; reads, writes, allowlists, and budgets are enforced in the wire protocol.
PgBeam + Claude Code
Paste a hosted MCP URL into Claude Code and your agent gets policy-enforced query, list_tables, describe_table, and explain tools over your own Postgres. No server to run, no real credentials handed out.
PgBeam + Cursor
Give Cursor a scoped connection string or a hosted MCP URL instead of your production credentials. PgBeam enforces what the agent can do in the Postgres wire protocol, with a full audit trail.
PgBeam + Prisma
Set Prisma's datasource URL to a scoped PgBeam credential. Your application keeps its own connection; the agent gets a guarded one with read-only enforcement, allowlists, and masking applied in the wire protocol.
Comparisons
How PgBeam compares to poolers and database platforms.
PgBeam vs AWS RDS Proxy
RDS Proxy pools connections to RDS and Aurora inside your VPC. PgBeam adds wire-level policy, PII masking, and a full audit trail for agent access, and works with any Postgres host, not just RDS.
PgBeam vs PgBouncer
PgBouncer is the de facto Postgres connection pooler: small, fast, self-hosted. PgBeam is a managed gateway that pools and adds agent policy, PII masking, caching, and a full audit trail.
PgBeam vs Supavisor
Supavisor is Supabase's cloud-native pooler, built to handle huge connection counts. PgBeam pools too, and adds agent policy, PII masking, caching, and an audit trail, over any Postgres host.
PgBeam vs Neon
Neon is serverless Postgres with branching and a low-latency driver. PgBeam is not a database: it is a policy and audit gateway that secures agent access to any Postgres, including a Neon database.
PgBeam vs a read-only Postgres role
A read-only role blocks writes and nothing else. PgBeam enforces read-only per credential at the wire and adds allowlists, PII masking, query budgets, a kill-switch, and a per-statement audit trail, without touching your database roles.
PgBeam vs a DIY Postgres MCP server
The reference Postgres MCP server runs on whatever your connection string grants, usually full privileges, and the guardrails are whatever you code and maintain. PgBeam is a hosted, policy-enforced MCP endpoint with read-only, masking, budgets, and audit built in.
Use cases
Safe Postgres for a specific agent, scenario, or team.
A hosted MCP server for Postgres
Paste one URL into Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client. Your agent gets policy-enforced query, list_tables, describe_table, and explain tools over your own Postgres. No server to run, no code changes.
Give Claude and Cursor safe database access
Let your coding agent read real data without handing it your production credentials. PgBeam issues a scoped connection string or a hosted MCP URL and enforces what the agent can do, in the Postgres wire protocol.
Read-only Postgres for AI agents
Block every INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and DDL per credential. Reads pass, writes are rejected in the wire protocol before they ever reach your database. No database role juggling.
PII masking for LLM database access
Redact, null, or hash sensitive columns before results leave the wire. The LLM gets masked data it can still join and group on; your application reads the real values. Nothing sensitive ever reaches the model.
Safe Postgres for AI analytics agents
Let a natural-language-to-SQL agent query your reporting database without the risk of a write or a leak. Read-only enforcement, PII masking, row caps, and caching keep the agent fast and contained.
Safe Postgres for customer-support copilots
Give a support copilot scoped, tenant-isolated, read access to live order and ticket data, with PII masked and every proposed write held for human approval. Enforced in the wire protocol, audited end to end.
Safe Postgres for autonomous workflows
Provision per-tenant scoped credentials in code, cap each agent with query budgets and a kill-switch, and wire anomaly and budget-exhausted webhooks into your incident pipeline. Containment is automatic, not a 3am dashboard refresh.
