Neon

Neon provides branchable serverless Postgres and backend services for applications and coding agents.

Neon

Neon provides managed Postgres with separated compute and storage, autoscaling, scale-to-zero, instant provisioning, and database branching. Its backend services also include Object Storage, Functions, Managed Better Auth, and an AI Gateway.

Developers use Neon for application databases, preview environments, testing, agent-built applications, file storage, authentication, and model calls. Neon does not host frontends or static sites, and AI Gateway model usage and other services may incur usage charges.

Features

  • Provision serverless Postgres databases with autoscaling and scale-to-zero
  • Create isolated database branches for previews, tests, and agent sessions
  • Query databases through a PostgREST-compatible HTTP interface
  • Store files in S3-compatible Object Storage that branches with database data
  • Deploy long-running Node.js Functions beside Postgres
  • Use Managed Better Auth with branchable users, sessions, and organizations
  • Call models from multiple providers through the AI Gateway
  • Manage projects and database resources through an API and CLI

Use cases

  • Create isolated databases for pull-request preview environments
  • Run integration tests against disposable Postgres branches
  • Build applications with database, storage, functions, and authentication
  • Deploy agent-built backends with branchable infrastructure
  • Store uploads alongside the database while keeping branches isolated
  • Call AI models without managing separate provider credentials
