Connect ChatGPT to Your Database — The Secure Way

Give ChatGPT access to your live database data — without exposing credentials, without building a custom API, and without sacrificing security. Conexor bridges the gap using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

How MCP connects ChatGPT to your database

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard adopted by both Anthropic and OpenAI. It defines how AI assistants discover and use external data sources through a standardized interface — no custom API code required.

When you connect your database to Conexor, we generate an MCP server that ChatGPT can connect to directly. ChatGPT discovers the available tools (one per table), understands your schema, and can query your data in real time when your team asks questions.

// The flow

User → "What were last month's sales by region?"

ChatGPT → calls MCP tool: get_orders(group_by: region, period: last_month)

Conexor MCP Server → executes parameterized SQL on your database

ChatGPT → "Here are last month's sales by region: ..."

Security model — how your data stays safe

AES-256 credential encryption

Your database credentials are encrypted in your browser before they ever reach our servers. We store only ciphertext — we cannot decrypt your credentials even if our servers are compromised.

SELECT-only enforcement

By default, Conexor only allows SELECT queries. AI agents can read your data but can never INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, or DROP. This is enforced at the database user level.

Parameterized queries

All SQL is parameterized at the protocol level. SQL injection is structurally impossible — not just caught by a filter, but prevented by the query architecture itself.

Complete audit trail

Every query is logged with timestamp, user identity, AI model, tool name, parameters, row count, and execution time. Exportable for SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance.

On-premise agent option

For data that must stay in your network, install the Conexor agent on your infrastructure. It connects outbound only — no inbound firewall rules needed.

API key scoping

Create scoped API keys with per-datasource access control. Revoke any key instantly. View last-used timestamps.
