GGAARD
AI SQL GatewaySelf-hostedValidated SQLAudit metadata

Governed AI Access to Your Data — without giving up control.

GAARD is a self-hosted AI SQL gateway for organizations that want natural-language access to relational data while keeping prompts, SQL generation, validation, execution, connectors, and auditability under governance.

Built for enterprises, healthcare teams, and public-sector organizations that need useful AI access without uncontrolled data exposure.

AI data access is useful. Ungoverned AI data access is risky.

The risk is rarely the question itself. It is the path from prompt to generated query to executed operation.

Uncontrolled SQL generation

AI-generated queries need validation, limits, and reviewable execution paths.

Fragmented data access

Teams need one governed way to ask questions across trusted data sources.

Low auditability

Regulated organizations need visibility into prompts, generated SQL, outputs, and operational metadata.

Sensitive operating environments

Healthcare, enterprise, and public-sector teams cannot treat data access as a black box.

Solution

GAARD puts a governed gateway between people, models, and data.

Instead of connecting every assistant directly to every database, GAARD centralizes natural-language data access behind a controlled SQL gateway. Configure data sources, models, prompts, validation rules, and execution policies in one place.

Governed NL-to-SQL

Natural-language requests move through an approved generation path instead of ad hoc database prompts.

Question -> policy -> SQL

Connector-based access

Approved connectors define which sources can be reached and how access is bounded.

Sources stay explicit

Prompt and policy control

Prompts, model choices, and generation rules live in one managed operating layer.

Policy before response

SQL validation before execution

Generated SQL is inspected before it can touch trusted production data.

Validate then execute

Execution metadata

Requests, queries, outputs, and runtime context remain reviewable after every run.

Trace every run

Self-hosted deployment

Keep the gateway, connectors, and execution surface inside your own environment.

Operate in your stack

How it works

A controlled path from natural language to governed SQL.

GAARD keeps the flow explicit: approved sources, selected models, validated SQL, and reviewable execution metadata.

1

Connect sources

Register relational databases and approved data endpoints.

2

Configure models

Choose which LLM providers and models can be used.

3

Ask questions

Users or systems ask natural-language questions instead of writing SQL manually.

4

Validate and audit

GAARD controls generated SQL, execution, responses, and traceability.

Sectors

Designed for organizations where data access must be controlled.

Enterprises

Give analysts and business teams faster access to trusted operational data while keeping SQL execution, data source access, and model usage governed.

  • Executive reporting
  • Operations analytics
  • Internal data products
  • Controlled AI-assisted analysis

Healthcare

Let authorized teams ask questions over approved datasets while keeping data access paths explicit and reviewable.

  • Operational reporting
  • Capacity and activity analysis
  • Research support datasets
  • Internal decision support

Public sector

Support transparent, controlled access to structured data for agencies and public institutions that require auditability and operational discipline.

  • Administrative reporting
  • Public service analytics
  • Internal knowledge and data access
  • Controlled AI adoption

Governance

Control the path from question to query to answer.

GAARD is built around operational control: source approval, model configuration, SQL validation, execution boundaries, and metadata that can be reviewed.

GAARD is not just a chat box over a database. It is a governed access layer for natural-language data operations.

  • Configure approved data sources
  • Control which LLM providers and models are available
  • Keep SQL generation and execution inside your environment
  • Validate generated queries before execution
  • Preserve request and execution metadata
  • Use self-hosted deployment patterns for stronger operational control

Frequently asked questions

What is GAARD?

GAARD is a self-hosted AI SQL gateway that gives users natural-language access to governed data sources while keeping SQL generation, validation, execution, model usage, and auditability under control.

Is GAARD only for relational databases?

The Community plan focuses on relational data sources. Paid plan capabilities are shown for reference while subscriptions are unavailable; they expand source options, including Excel and API data sources. Enterprise adds extraction from unstructured notes so extracted information can be queried in a SQL-like way.

Does GAARD replace BI tools?

No. GAARD complements dashboards and BI workflows by providing a governed natural-language access layer for data questions, analysis, and controlled SQL execution.

Is GAARD cloud-only?

No. GAARD is designed as a self-hosted gateway, giving organizations more control over deployment, configuration, and data access paths.

Are paid plans available now?

Not yet. Paid plan checkout and subscriptions are temporarily disabled, while the Community plan remains available.

Is GAARD certified for healthcare or public-sector compliance?

Do not claim certification unless your organization has completed the relevant process. GAARD is designed for governed, auditable data-access patterns, but compliance depends on deployment, configuration, policies, and the customer environment.
