The open context engine for AI agents
Wren Engine is the open foundation behind Wren AI: a semantic, governed, agent-ready context layer for business data.

Why Wren Engine
AI agents can already call tools, browse docs, and write code. What they still struggle with is business context.
Enterprise data is not just rows in a warehouse. It is definitions, metrics, relationships, permissions, lineage, and intent. An agent that can connect to PostgreSQL or Snowflake still does not know what "net revenue", "active customer", or "pipeline coverage" actually mean in your company.
This is not just our thesis. In Your Data Agents Need Context, a16z argues that data agents break down when they only have connectivity and SQL generation, but lack business definitions, source-of-truth context, and the operational knowledge that explains how a company actually runs.
