Everyone builds on the same live data
Connect any source and start building immediately with zero backend setup. Monospace layers auth, permissions, validation, filtering, and MCP over the systems you already run.
Build faster, scale smarter
Skip the backend
Get an instant API over data you already have and ship faster.
More people can build
Business teams work against real enterprise data in Studio or through their preferred AI tooling.
Control access
Granular access control through row-level and field-level controls for every user, application or agent.
Anyone can build on Monospace
Developers
Build against a typed client generated from your schema. Coding agents get the same API context using official Agent Skills.
Business Teams
Browse and edit live records in Studio, with a built-in AI assistant to help, or connect your own agent and describe what you need.
How it works
1
Connect existing data or start fresh.
Connect one or many data sources, or start with a new database and build the model in Monospace as you go.
2
Define what each user can reach.
Set fine-grained permission rules for each user, including agents.
3
Connect an agent and describe what you need.
One API key, an official Skill, and an MCP server. Apps, agents, and people build on the same live, typed interface.
4
Ship an app under its own identity.
Give any tool you ship its own service account, scoped exactly to what the running application needs, not tied to user rights.
Common scenarios

02
A Next.js frontend over a legacy MySQL database nobody wants to touch.
03
A customer portal built without standing up another backend service.
04
A mobile app that has to write back to the system of record.
