The backend that builds itself,then keeps running.

The autonomous backend platform for teams shipping real products. Describe it once — Backenly builds your backend, runs it in production, and monitors, repairs, and evolves it safely, so you never have to staff backend operations.

How it works

From plain English to a production backend

Describe what your product needs. Backenly plans the schema, applies it as governed changes, and verifies the running backend against live requests. Every step is inspectable and every change is reversible — the same discipline a backend team would give you, without hiring one.

AI workspace to runtime inspector

Plan, build, connect, and publish from one control surface.

01

Plan

The AI turns a natural language product request into an intent graph: entities, relationships, policies, and runtime actions.

02

Apply

Execution contracts turn the plan into governed mutations with validation, dry runs, checkpoints, and rollback paths.

03

Operate

Backenly keeps a trust timeline of fixes, health checks, incidents, migrations, and approvals after the backend exists.

Platform surface

The backend primitives are built in, not bolted on

One product request touches many systems. Backenly ships with all of them already wired together: schema, runtime APIs, auth boundaries, storage, events, and operations.

01 · PostgreSQL

Database

Project-scoped schemas, generated tables, indexes, relations, and safe migrations.

02 · Generated runtime

REST APIs

Production REST endpoints with validation, API key handling, and project-aware routing.

03 · JWT + OAuth

Auth

Project JWT secrets, end-user tables, and isolated auth paths for every workspace.

04 · Local or S3

Storage

Buckets, uploads, signed URLs, metadata, and file APIs inside the same project boundary.

05 · SSE + presence

Realtime

Database changes, presence, broadcast channels, and reconnect behavior for live apps.

06 · Events + functions

Triggers

Event-driven behavior for data changes, schedules, functions, and integrations.

Minutes to a production backend

Describe the product once and get running infrastructure, not boilerplate to finish later.

Safe to let it work

Isolation, approvals, verification, and rollback are enforced by the runtime, not promised by a prompt.

Keeps operating after day one

Creation is the start. Backenly monitors, heals, and documents the backend as it runs.

The agentic backend

Ask for a feature. Get running infrastructure.

Tables, auth, storage, realtime, functions, deploys: every backend surface is created by the AI and runs inside the platform. There is no code to receive, host, or maintain.

01

Runs inside Backenly

Nothing is exported for you to host. The database, APIs, auth, and functions live and run in your workspace.

02

Created by the agent

You describe the feature in plain language. The agent plans it, applies it as a governed change, and verifies the result.

03

Inspectable, never hidden

Every table, user, file, and function the agent creates is visible in the dashboard the moment it exists.

Operational trust

Designed for the diligence questions

Where does the data live? What is the AI allowed to touch? What happens when something goes wrong? Backenly answers these in the runtime, not in the documentation.

Tenant boundaries are first-class

Platform users stay in public Prisma models. App users and generated tables live inside workspace schemas.

Destructive work is gated

Dangerous operations require explicit approval, with intent and impact separated before execution.

Every fix needs a receipt

Autonomy produces a durable trail: what changed, why it changed, how it was verified, and how it rolls back.

Connect any frontend

A real backend contract, not a mock

Backenly is a standard REST API and SDK, so your own codebase — React, Next.js, mobile, anything — connects the way any production backend does. Building with AI? A coding agent uses the MCP server, and an AI frontend builder wires itself with one pairing prompt.

01

Your codebase, standard REST

A documented REST API and typed SDK. No proprietary runtime, no lock-in — the same integration any production backend gives you.

02

Coding agents via MCP

Cursor and Claude Code read your live schema and make governed changes from the editor. Destructive ops stay gated behind dashboard approval.

03

AI builders via pairing prompt

Paste one prompt into Lovable, v0, or Bolt and it wires against your real tables, auth, and storage — not a throwaway mock.

Pairing code

Paste one prompt into your frontend builder. It fetches the live manifest and wires the SDK against real backend resources.

For coding agents

Building in Cursor or Claude Code instead?

Paste one prompt and your coding agent drives tables, auth, storage, and functions directly — through the same governed changes, approvals, and rollback as the dashboard. Destructive operations stay blocked: your agent gets a backend it can’t break.

Who it is for

Built for teams that ship products, not backends

Anyone running a backend that has to stay up in production — with the operational seriousness a company needs, and none of the headcount it usually takes.

Businesses & teams

Run customer-facing products without staffing a backend team. Backenly builds, monitors, and repairs the backend continuously — with approvals, audit trails, and rollback your stakeholders can inspect.

Startups & founders

Go from idea to a production backend without a five-figure engineering bill up front. Ship on real infrastructure, then let it run itself while you find product-market fit.

Developers & agencies

A real REST API, SDK, and MCP server — governed changes, not a throwaway mock. Build in Cursor or Claude Code, or hand clients a backend that operates itself after you deliver it.

Common questions

What teams ask before they trust us with production

Straight answers to what founders, teams, and developers actually ask before running a real backend on Backenly.

The ongoing work a backend hire or agency retainer covers — schema changes, APIs, auth, monitoring, incident fixes, rollbacks — continuously and with a full audit trail. You describe the product; Backenly builds it, runs it in production, and keeps it healthy. Risky changes wait for your approval, every autonomous fix has a receipt, and the Enterprise plan adds custom limits, dedicated isolation, and an SLA. It replaces the operator role, not your product decisions.

Stop operating your backend

Let your team ship the product, not run the backend

Describe the system once. Backenly builds the resources, exposes the APIs, connects your frontend, and keeps the production runtime healthy and accountable — so no one on your team has to.
