Powabase Operational

Powabase provides every project with its own Postgres database, authentication, storage, realtime services, and AI capabilities. Developers can upload documents to build knowledge bases, configure retrieval-augmented generation applications, create agents that call tools, and orchestrate workflows visually or through APIs. The platform supports managed cloud hosting and also offers a complete Apache-2.0-licensed open-source stack for self-hosting.

AI application developers

Build Q&A, knowledge base, or automation applications with Postgres, document retrieval, and agent capabilities, then connect them to a frontend through APIs.

AI coding tool users

Use Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Replit, Lovable, or other supported tools to have coding agents generate Powabase backend integrations.

Small development teams

Use managed projects to quickly build product prototypes or production applications with authentication, file storage, realtime data, and AI features.

Enterprise and platform teams

Deploy in Powabase Cloud, a private cloud, a VPC, or an on-premises environment, and run applications with requirements for regional data residency, SSO, audit logs, and SLAs.

Database and backend services

Every project provides isolated Postgres, pgvector, authentication, file storage, and realtime subscriptions, accessible through REST, PostgREST, or direct database connections.

Document retrieval and knowledge bases

Upload PDFs, Word documents, images, spreadsheets, or URLs. The platform handles extraction, chunking, embedding, and indexing, then retrieves content through vector, BM25, or hybrid search.

Agents and tool calling

Configure agents that can use databases, web search, custom HTTP interfaces, or MCP servers, while preserving multi-turn state through sessions and streaming results as they are generated.

Multi-agent orchestration

Combine agents with different responsibilities behind a single orchestration entry point, allowing applications to assign tasks to specialized agents.

Visual workflows

Drag and connect triggers, conditions, agents, HTTP calls, code, and other modules to build multi-step flows and deploy them as HTTP endpoints.

API and coding agent integration

Get the project URL and API key from the Connect dialog in Studio, then provide them to coding agents to generate integration code for authentication, data, files, and AI features.

Self-hosted deployment

Run the complete single-project open-source stack with one docker compose up command, or deploy it to a Kubernetes cluster using the official Helm chart.

AI capabilities built into the backend

RAG, agents, multi-agent orchestration, and workflows share a platform with the database, authentication, storage, and realtime services, reducing the need to stitch together multiple services.

Complete stack isolated by project

Each project has its own Postgres, Realtime, Storage, API gateway, and AI services. The platform clearly states that projects do not share state.

Designed for coding agents

The platform provides Skills, APIs, and authentication guides and follows common backend API conventions, enabling coding agents to generate integration code from project connection details.

Open source and self-hostable

The complete stack is released under the Apache-2.0 license and can run on your own infrastructure without a control plane or account. You can choose either managed cloud hosting or self-hosting.
