Secure access to databases
for developers and AI agents.
Reach databases, APIs, and internal services by name. No open ports, no public endpoints, nothing to discover. End-to-end encrypted.
$ curl -fsSL https://privateconnect.co/install.sh | bashEvery open port is now a target for autonomous agents scanning at scale. Private Connect makes your services unreachable until you say otherwise.
Quick Start
One command on each side. Use names instead of IPs.
How it works
┌─────────────────┐ ┌───────┐ ┌─────────────────┐ │ Your Server │────────▶│ Hub │◀────────│ Your Laptop │ │ │ └───────┘ │ │ │ connect :5432 │ │ connect prod-db │ └─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
Access by name
connect prod-db instead of remembering IPs or ports
Stable ports
Same service always gets the same local port across restarts
Encrypted
End-to-end encrypted tunnels with audit logging
Works everywhere
On top of Tailscale, VPN, or plain internet. Works regardless of where services run
Team sharing
Share your environment with a code, teammates get the same services, same ports
No port forwarding
No firewall rules, no changing localhost to 0.0.0.0
Connects to different tools
Databases, AI tools, Webhooks, CI/CD, infrastructure. If it runs on a port or sends a callback, Private Connect can reach it. No plugins, no vendor lock-in.

Open source, transparent, and built for teams who need secure access without the VPN headache.
"Private Connect has been a lifesaver while traveling. I can securely access my local database without VPNs or opening my network, just run the agent and it feels like localhost. Setup is simple, the CLI is clean, and it’s been consistently reliable."
"Wow, this is insane. I think Private Connect has the potential to completely revolutionize testing deployments and environment operations."
