# Guepard

> Guepard (guepard.run) is a DataOps platform that gives every developer, CI pipeline, and AI agent an ephemeral, production-identical database clone in under 6 seconds. Built on GFS — an open-source (MIT) "Git for databases" engine — it brings Git semantics (commit, branch, checkout, rollback, diff) to PostgreSQL and MySQL, with copy-on-write storage, PII masking, and a built-in MCP server for AI agents. Self-hosted or BYOC; data never leaves the customer's VPC.

Key facts: founded 2025, offices in San Francisco and Paris; raised $2.1M. GFS supports PostgreSQL 13–18 and MySQL 8.0–8.1. Clones are copy-on-write (only deltas stored), terabyte-scale databases fork in seconds. Pricing: GFS open source is free forever (MIT); BYOC is licensed per database engine with unlimited clones, seats, and environments; Enterprise adds self-hosting, SSO/SAML, RBAC, audit trails, and custom SLAs. The site is available in English (/) and French (/fr).
