SafeGrd

Key facts: SafeGrd launched on Product Hunt on November 2, 2026. It backs up Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, SQLite, files and mail: each backup is encrypted on your host and written to S3-compatible storage under Object Lock in compliance mode, so nothing can delete it before the lock ends, including SafeGrd itself or an agent holding your admin keys. On a schedule, a Fire Drill restores the newest backup, counts every table and row against what was backed up, and signs the result. Agents connect over MCP with a token that can check status, take a backup and run a restore test, but can never delete a backup, shorten retention or change where backups go.

Plans: Free: $0, for as long as you want, with a weekly Fire Drill. Paid plans from $15 a month, with unlimited databases, surfaces and team members; Growth is $49 a month with a 14-day free trial and no card.

Best for: Teams that let AI agents near production databases. Who should skip it: anyone whose database already has tested, locked backups.

Pros

• Backups are locked with S3 Object Lock, so nothing can delete them early, not even an agent with admin keys
• Free $0 plan for as long as you want, with a weekly restore test
• Every scheduled restore is verified table by table and row by row, then signed
• Agents get an MCP token that can back up but never delete

Watch out for

• Support comes with a paid plan, not the free one
• Paid plans differ mainly in how often restores are tested, so check the cadence you need
• A new product, so long-term reliability is still being proven

Best for

Teams that let AI agents near production databases. Who should skip it: anyone whose database already has tested, locked backups, or a team that needs support on a free plan.
