Everything you need for your backend
All the tools you need to build production-ready applications, managed for you so you can focus on your product.
Database
Every project is a full Postgres database with row level security, realtime subscriptions, and vector support.
Authentication
Add user sign ups and logins with email, social providers, magic links, or phone auth.
Storage
Store, organize, transform and serve large files. Any media, including videos and images.
Edge Functions
Write custom code without deploying or scaling servers. Run globally at the edge for ultra-low latency.
Developer experience that just works
Get started with just a few lines of code. Our client libraries handle the complexity.
import { createClient } from '@backendkit/js'
// Initialize the client
const backendkit = createClient(
process.env.BACKENDKIT_URL,
process.env.BACKENDKIT_ANON_KEY
)
// Query your database
const { data, error } = await backendkit
.from('users')
.select('*')
.eq('status', 'active')
.order('created_at', { ascending: false })
// Subscribe to realtime changes
backendkit
.channel('users')
.on('postgres_changes', { event: 'INSERT', schema: 'public' }, (payload) => {
console.log('New user:', payload.new)
})
.subscribe()Why developers love BackendKit
