For enterprise AI and RAG pipelines
Gate your AI's access to knowledge
with permission-aware retrieval
Your AI agents bypass every access control you built
You invested in SSO, IAM, ACLs, and RBAC for every system in your organization. Then you deployed RAG, and created a new access surface that bypasses all of it. Vector databases retrieve by semantic similarity, not authorization. When your AI copilot is asked about compensation data, it returns the most relevant chunks, not the most appropriately authorized ones. This is the RAG authorization gap.
Security that works with your stack
Gateco sits between your AI agents and vector databases, enforcing policies at retrieval time without changing your existing architecture.
Deny-by-Default Retrieval
Your AI agents can only access data they're explicitly authorized for. No policy match, no data, eliminating the #1 cause of RAG data leakage.
12 Vector DB Connectors
Plug into your existing vector infrastructure in minutes. No migration, no vendor lock-in. Security layers on top of databases you already use.
Semantic Readiness (L0-L4)
See exactly where each connector stands on the path to full policy enforcement. A clear, actionable roadmap instead of vague security posture scores.
Classification Suggestions
Stop manually labeling thousands of resources. Gateco scans and suggests classifications; you review and approve, turning weeks of work into minutes.
Full Audit Trail
Answer "who accessed what through AI, and when?" instantly. Every retrieval decision recorded with the exact policy logic, audit-ready from day one.
SDK + CLI
Add permission-aware retrieval in 5 lines of code. Python and TypeScript SDKs, CLI for operations, Access Simulator to dry-run policies before they go live.
Multi-Mode Search
Four retrieval modes: semantic similarity, keyword relevance, hybrid fusion, and deterministic grep. Every query finds the right lens.
Identity Provider Sync
Connect Okta, Azure Entra ID, AWS IAM, or GCP Cloud Identity. Principals, groups, and departments sync automatically, so policies reference real identities, not static lists.
Policy Templates
Seven ready-made templates for common patterns: group RBAC, department access, classification ceilings, deny-sensitive. Pick a template, fill in your values, deploy a draft in seconds.
Grounded Answers
Ask a natural language question and get an answer synthesized only from policy-allowed chunks, with citations. Denied content never reaches the LLM context.
Access Simulator
Dry-run policy evaluation or run a live preview against real data. See exactly what each principal would be allowed or denied before activating policies in production.
SCIM Provisioning
Enterprise inbound SCIM v2 for real-time user and group provisioning. Your IDP pushes changes to Gateco as they happen, with no sync delay and no stale principals.
MCP Server
Give AI coding assistants like Claude and Cursor permission-aware retrieval via the Model Context Protocol. Six tools, markdown output, zero denied-content leakage.
Five questions buyers ask
What about latency?
<25ms p95 policy-layer overhead. Per-connector benchmarks are public.
See the SLO →What about pgvector RLS?
Works until you need an audit trail, IDP sync, or a second vector DB.
Read the comparison →What about Cerbos?
Cerbos is engine-shaped. Gateco is RAG-specific and ships with 12 connectors.
Read the comparison →Won't Microsoft bundle this?
Purview secures M365 Copilot. Gateco secures the AI you ship in your own product.
See the difference →What if you're unavailable?
Fail-closed by default. Every error-time denial is logged. No ambiguous access.

Three steps to secure retrieval
No infrastructure changes required. Connect, configure, and enforce, and your AI agents keep working, now with permission boundaries.
Secure Retrieval
Every query is permission-checked
Step 3
Demo track
Connect and make your first policy-filtered retrieval call in minutes.
Point Gateco at a vector DB, define one policy, and retrieve. No IDP sync required.
Production track
Full governance deployment: connector, search config, resource registration, IDP sync, policy authoring, and Access Simulator validation.
Median time to L3 readiness: ~2 weeks. Full deployment guide →
Integrate in minutes
Python and TypeScript SDKs make permission-aware retrieval a one-liner. The CLI handles everything else.
from gateco_sdk import GatecoClient
client = GatecoClient(api_key="gck_...")
# Deny-by-default retrieval
result = client.retrievals.execute(
query="quarterly revenue forecast",
principal_id="user-uuid",
search_mode="hybrid",
)
# Returns only what this principal is authorized to seeTrusted by engineering teams shipping AI in regulated industries
What practitioners say about building with Gateco.
Senior ML Engineer
Financial Services
We needed ABAC on our RAG pipeline before shipping to customers. Gateco got us there in a day, not a quarter.
VP of Engineering
Healthcare Tech
The audit trail alone justified the cost. Every retrieval decision is logged with the exact policy reason, and compliance teams love it.
AI Platform Lead
Enterprise SaaS
Deny-by-default was the feature that sold us. Our previous setup was allow-unless-explicitly-denied. That's backward for sensitive data.
Staff Software Engineer
Legal Tech
Connecting to our existing pgvector setup took 15 minutes. Policy configuration took another hour. We were in production the same day.
Head of Data & AI
InsurTech
The Access Simulator let us test policies before enforcing them. No other tool we evaluated had this. It removed all the deployment risk.
