The fastest and easiest way to design and deploy APIs.

Give a short description of the API you would like to deploy and you'll get a URL, Docs, and API Key for it in seconds!

Use MCP

Add the MCP server to your IDE or MCP Client of your choice and have APIs built for you automatically as your agents work.

    Cool!

    I wonder if this isn't toooo much magic. How does this scale beyond simple use-cases? I fear one might hit a wall at 80%, where the first part is super easy indeed but not customizable enough to get to 100% of all use-cases.

      Thanks! It's a great point to make. Early on I worked on a "migration" ability for the resources, so that every change you make automatically updates the underlying database. But the longer I worked on that, the more I realized I could create/delete as many APIs as I wanted working out what's necessary. Then scale it up for longevity. And the time it took to create/delete APIs was nearly as fast as some of the build times I've experienced for front-end applications.

      That's ultimately what I think the value is: API development as hyper-iterative as front-end apps.

      I'm still clearly working out how to describe this value. I'm developing more examples to help define what I think the best use-cases are.

    What’s the difference between the pricing sizes (micro, small, etc)?

      Basically those plans represent the size of the clusters that are deployed for your APIs.

      All of them come with a minimum 3 node database layer, and each plan increases the node counts. The medium and large plans also increase the CPU/mem of the database nodes.
