Speedrunning our AI startup with EdgeDB

Credal.ai, founded by Jack, leverages EdgeDB to enhance productivity and security in using AI for organizations, including unicorn startups and publicly traded companies, by efficiently handling data integration and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) while safeguarding sensitive information. The company prioritizes developer productivity and error reduction by utilizing EdgeDB's full stack type safety, which ensures consistent type enforcement across all application layers and allows for seamless updates following schema changes. EdgeDB's access policies further streamline operations by minimizing the focus on authorization tasks, centralizing logic for role-based access control (RBAC), and safeguarding against data leaks, even if queries are poorly written. This approach enhances both productivity and security, as it allows developers to focus on innovation without compromising data integrity, while EdgeDB's tooling eliminates the typical trade-off between productivity and safety, offering a cohesive, efficient development experience.
