SQLGuard · vs
We do not compete as an AI security platform. We own statement-level authorization before production SQL writes. Wedge: The authorization gateway for AI database actions.
| Them | SQLGuard | Why we win |
|---|---|---|
| Noma / Nightfall / enterprise AI-TRiSM Discover agents, govern MCP allowlists, runtime DLP | Signed PASS for the exact mutating SQL + change-control receipt | They are a security expense. We are a sales unlock for AI products that need customers to connect data. |
| DataMCP / managed Postgres MCP Hosted MCP + table permissions + audit for one DB connection | Portable authorize layer in front of any MCP/SQL write tool | They replace your MCP. We authorize writes wherever the agent already runs. |
| PayAI sql/check · query-safety tips Cheap pass/caution/block on SQL text | Ed25519 Execution Certificate bound to sql_hash + policy + sandbox | Lint is not authorization. Tips do not verify. PASS does. |
| Read-only DB gateways Never allow writes | Controlled writes: ALLOW / DENY / REQUIRE_APPROVAL | Customers eventually need agents to act — we are the unlock. |
