AI agents are only as useful as the data they can reach, and only as safe as the controls around it. Today our portfolio company CData Software launched Connect AI Gateway, a single control point between AI and the systems that run the business. Built on CData's library of schema-aware connectors, it grounds agents in company context, governs every request down to the record, and routes each one to the most efficient model. The results speak for themselves: in CData Labs research, prompts run through CData's connectors returned correct results 98.5% of the time, compared with 65–75% for competing MCP approaches. Congratulations to Amit Sharma, Raviv Levi and the entire CData team.

A year ago, the question was how to connect AI to your systems. Now agents are working inside them, and the questions have changed: Is the answer right? Whose permissions applied? What did each request cost? CData Connect AI Gateway, launching today, answers all of them from one
