HTTPS on the first deploy
Just tick Web Publishing at deploy and the API gets a free squareweb.app subdomain with a TLS certificate. Swap in your own domain whenever you want.
API and backend hosting that's always on
Ship REST, GraphQL, webhooks and workers in always-on containers with no cold starts. HTTPS on the first deploy, your own domain, a database in the same datacenter and logs for every request.

What's included
Everything a production API needs
From the first deploy to production traffic, with no add-ons and no per-request billing.
Your own domain and load balancing
Point your brand's domain and serve the same endpoint from several applications with automatic failover.
Database in the same datacenter
MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL and Redis hosted right next to your API, with a direct connection and 1 ms average latency.
Environment variables
Secrets and settings integrated with the application: injected at runtime, editable from the dashboard and through the API too.
Request logs and performance
Status code, cache, method, route and user agent for every request. On Pro and Enterprise, edge and origin latency by percentile (p50, p95, p99) and the slowest routes.
Error monitoring
4xx and 5xx error rates over time, the routes that fail most, a breakdown by HTTP method and email alerts about the application's status.
Write in the runtime you already use
Eleven production runtimes with up-to-date versions. Pick yours and deploy from GitHub, the CLI or an upload.
From the first route to production in three steps
No Dockerfile, no pipeline to maintain and no server to configure.
1
Push the code
Connect the GitHub repository, use the CLI or upload a .zip. The runtime is detected and the API is up in seconds.
2
Connect the data
Provision a database in the same workspace, copy the connection string and store it in the API's environment variables.
3
Point the domain and operate
Set up your own domain, follow logs, latency and errors, and restore a snapshot if you ever need to.
Combine with other services
Everything in the same dashboard, on the same infrastructure and the same invoice.
A plan for every stage of your project
Start small and scale when you need to, with no loyalty contracts.
