Pylar serves as a secure intermediary layer for data access, allowing AI agents to interact safely with structured information while preventing direct database connections. To start, users connect various data sources, which may include platforms like BigQuery, Snowflake, PostgreSQL, as well as business applications such as HubSpot or Google Sheets, to Pylar. Following this, governed SQL views can be generated using the intuitive SQL IDE provided by Pylar; these views specify the precise tables, columns, and rows that agents may access. Additionally, Pylar enables the creation of “MCP tools,” which can be developed through natural-language prompts or manual setups, converting SQL queries into standardized, secure operations. After the development and thorough testing of these tools, they can be published, allowing agents to retrieve data via a unified MCP endpoint that integrates seamlessly with various agent-building platforms, including custom AI assistants and no-code automation solutions like Zapier, n8n, and LangGraph, as well as development environments like VS Code. This streamlined access not only enhances security but also optimizes the efficiency of data interactions for AI agents across diverse applications.
