- Monospace is a governed API layer that connects to existing databases, REST APIs, and SaaS systems and exposes them through a REST API, generated TypeScript SDK, MCP server, and Studio UI without copying or migrating the data.
More detail
- One central permissions model controls read and write access down to collection, row, and field level for apps, people, and AI agents, with every action written to an audit log.
- Best for
- Enterprises with many data sources and mixed builders (business users, developers, AI agents) that need central, field-level governance and audit trails over live data.
More detail
- Teams exposing existing or legacy databases to agents and internal tools without an ETL or migration project.
- Pricing
- Monospace is sold as a software license/subscription

- Main limitation
- Buyers who need warehouse-style analytics on copied data or scheduled-pipeline integration (iPaaS); the vendor positions Monospace as neither.
More detail
- Teams expecting to trial custom roles, custom policies, and service accounts on the free Starter license, since those governance features are paid-tier.

About
- Monospace is a governed API layer that connects to existing databases, REST APIs, and SaaS systems and exposes them through a REST API, generated TypeScript SDK, MCP server, and Studio UI without copying or migrating the data.
- One central permissions model controls read and write access down to collection, row, and field level for apps, people, and AI agents, with every action written to an audit log.
What it helps with
- Builders wait on data owners for access while the organization tries to retain control.
- Copying data into warehouses or integration pipelines duplicates data and creates lock-in.
- AI agents and apps need one consistent permissions model, per-caller identity, and audit trails across systems.
- Legacy databases need modern APIs and SDKs without a rewrite, cutover, or migration project.
Capabilities
A practical view of what is available and where limitations apply.
| Offering | Available | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Live querying of sources in place | Yes | Connects databases, REST APIs, and SaaS systems; introspects schema and reads/writes live sources with no migration or duplication, per the official homepage. |
| Native database connectors | Yes | Official docs list PostgreSQL 14–18, MySQL 8.4+, MariaDB 10.7+, SQL Server 2017+, plus managed Supabase, Neon, and Amazon RDS. |

| Cross-source relations at query time | Yes | Official docs state relations are resolved across databases at query time. |
| Central permissions down to row and field | Limited | Official homepage claims collection, row, and field-level enforcement, but an independent audit reported custom policies and custom roles are hard-limited to 0 on the free Starter license. |
| Per-caller identities and service accounts | Limited | Official homepage describes dedicated identities per app, tool, and agent; the independent audit reported service accounts are 0 on the free tier and part of the paid Business plan. |
| Audit log | Yes | Official homepage states every agent action lands in the same audit log as everything else. |
| MCP server for AI agents | Yes | Official docs describe a per-workspace MCP endpoint at /api/{workspace}/mcp with API-key auth and an Agent Skills package. |
| Generated TypeScript SDK and REST API | Yes | Official docs list REST API, generated typed TypeScript SDK, MCP server, and Studio UI as interfaces off one data model. |
