Make the switch to
ephemeral databases.

Build AI-ready
infra.

Every engineer, every PR, every agent gets their own production-identical environment that spins up in seconds and disappears when it's done. Agents and humans ship faster, together.

Ephemeral databases and sandboxes for every agent, PR, and experiment. Spin up in seconds. Tear down when done. Ship what wins.

How teams ship with production-identical databases

Join teams who snapshot once, branch hundreds of isolated clones in seconds, and tear down when done — built for humans, agents, and CI alike.

Spin up your first ephemeral database in minutes

Whether you're starting fresh or wrapping a 10TB production cluster, connect read-only, snapshot once, and branch isolated clones with a minimal CLI — no migration windows, no ops tickets.

# Connect read-only — data stays in your VPC
guepard connect \
  --engine postgres \
  --host prod-db.internal \
  --database app \
  --read-only

guepard snapshot create prod-primary \
  --incremental \
  --encrypt

guepard branch create staging/pr-142 \
  --from prod-primary \
  --mask pii-rules.yaml

Simple to start. Intuitive to scale.

How it works

Git semantics. Database speed.

Persistent → Ephemeral

Speed is the standard.

Compute is ephemeral. Containers are ephemeral. Preview URLs are ephemeral. Meanwhile your team — humans and agents alike — is still fighting over one persistent staging DB. Guepard retires it.

We speak your language.

Ship faster, org-wide.
The pain you know
01Teams blocked waiting on shared environments
02Release cycles stretching longer each quarter
03Data leaving the network to third-party tools
"We stopped shipping in trains. Every team ships when they're ready. That was a trillion-dollar bug fix."
