pgEdge

pgEdge Starfleet is a managed enterprise Postgres platform for AI applications with built-in MCP and RAG.

pgEdge Starfleet provides a managed Postgres platform with built-in Model Context Protocol and retrieval-augmented generation servers. Developers can provision databases, connect agentic tools like Claude Code and Cursor, and add hybrid search using pgvector. The platform supports copy-on-write database branching for testing, staging, and GitHub workflows on standard Postgres storage. It runs in the pgEdge cloud, customer cloud accounts, or self-hosted on-premises environments. Teams use it to build AI applications from prototype to production without assembling a separate data stack.
