9 seconds.One agent action.
Production data gone.
Founder Jer Crane reported that a coding agent deleted the production database and volume-level backups in one action.
Independent backup for an agent-powered world
It only
takes one.
A month of work can disappear in one mistaken action.
We’re building an independent way back, outside the permissions granted to your agents. Know what happened. Choose what comes back.

Publicly reported incidents
This has already happened.
Good intentions. Real consequences.
Reporting context: Railway and Replit reported restoring the affected data. Permanent data loss is not established for OpenClaw. Nine seconds is the PocketOS founder’s reported timing. These are independent reports, not Airgap customers or evidence that Airgap would have prevented the incidents.

Keep a separate copy.
The recovery approach keeps a copy outside the permissions you have already granted to your agents.

The intended recovery experience requires a successful saved copy. Coverage and attribution depend on the source.

Doesn't Google Workspace already protect my data?
Yes. Google provides native recovery capabilities for Drive and Gmail, with defined conditions and time limits. An independent backup is a separate question: what copy remains available, who can delete it and how will you restore the work you need? Google's recovery documentation
Link to this answerCan an agent delete a backup as well as working data?
It can if the effective permissions it holds allow both operations. The relevant distinction is authority: keeping a copy in another folder does not by itself prove that the agent cannot reach or remove it.
Link to this answerCan I choose individual items to restore?
The intended recovery experience lets you choose supported saved items and versions instead of assuming everything must be rolled back together. Check the integration’s supported objects, destinations and limitations.
Link to this answerWhen is my data actually backed up?
After the relevant data has been captured successfully. Payment and account connection are setup milestones, not proof of a completed backup. Check the captured scope, completion result and freshness; a partial capture needs attention to the missing items.
