Willow AI Governance Control Plane vs. CData Connect AI

The AI Basecamp for the enterprise. Willow is the Agentic Access Platform for the enterprise, the AI Basecamp where every AI agent checks in before it touches a single system. Most companies are stitching together a gateway, a shadow AI scanner, a DLP bolt-on, and a manual approval process. Seven tools pretending to be one. Willow is the platform. One control plane for every AI agent, tool, MCP, skill, and plugin in the enterprise, covering identity, runtime guardrails, shadow AI detection, and audit, from the same place.

CData Connect AI is the AI gateway that makes AI more accurate, for less. Built on CData's enterprise MCP platform, it gives every agent, copilot, and model one governed path to hundreds of enterprise systems, including Salesforce, NetSuite, SAP, ServiceNow, Workday, Snowflake, and Databricks, over live data instead of stale copies. Unlike gateways that only proxy traffic to model providers, Connect AI starts at the source connection.
