About
InstantDB is a real-time database solution for frontend developers that bundles auth, permissions, storage, presence, and streaming into a single backend service. It is designed to work seamlessly with AI coding agents via a CLI-first workflow, with a minimal API surface that LLMs can easily understand and generate code for. Apps built on Instant get instant updates, offline support, multiplayer sync, and relational queries out of the box.
Problem
Building a full-featured backend with real-time sync, auth, permissions, and storage typically requires integrating multiple separate services that are difficult for AI agents to operate.
For
Frontend developers and AI coding agents building real-time web apps
How it works
InstantDB provides a client-side real-time database with built-in auth, permissions, storage, presence, and streams, all manageable from the CLI so developers and AI agents can spin up and operate the full backend without touching a dashboard.
