# Pontil

> Tools-as-a-Service. Pontil makes SaaS products accessible to AI agents by generating tools from existing APIs, maintaining them automatically, and running them through a managed runtime at the authenticated user's permission level.

Pontil operates in the tools layer of the agent stack — between the model that reasons and the product that gets acted on. We are not a foundation model provider, an agent framework, or a traditional integration platform. Our customers are established B2B SaaS companies with multiple products, actively building AI agents, blocked on accessing their own platforms through their existing APIs.
