Simplified data access management
We founded VeilStream to help organizations extract more value from their data without compromising safety. Complexity leads to inefficiencies, delays, and oversights. Our mission is to make it as easy as possible to manage safe and efficient access to data. We're starting with PostgreSQL because a very large portion of the world's valuable data is stored in PostgreSQL databases and it is increasingly the database of choice for software engineers that are building new products.

Frequently Asked Questions
VeilStream is a lightweight proxy server that acts as a filter in between the database and your users or applications. Each user account exists in the database but VeilStream ensures that no unauthorized data is accessed by the user. VeilStream can control access on a column or row basis with intelligent rules and can also obfuscate a variety of data types to anonymize data.
Our solution consists of two components; a lightweight proxy server and an administration interface. Our suggested deployment model is for you to install the proxy server on your server and to use our SaaS deployment of the administration interface. A Docker container is available to facilitate the installation of the proxy server. This hybrid deployment is the default model offered in our pricing plans. Please contact us if you would like us to host both software components or if you would like to host them both on your own servers.
At least one person in your organization will need to know how to use PostgreSQL to initially set up VeilStream and to create new user accounts. From that point forward, anyone in your organization can quickly learn how to use the GUI to set up advanced access controls. This is one of the primary benefits of using VeilStream.
Yes, one of the advantages of using VeilStream is that you can use our API to dynamically create and remove filters for AI agents that are accessing your database depending on the scope of the work they are performing.
