Core Features

We Provide Many Features You Can Use

Everything a backend needs on day one: APIs for your databases, your own TypeScript where it matters, and the security, speed and teamwork around them.

Instant

Auto Generated APIs for 8 Database Types

Connect a database and every table gets secure REST APIs: CRUD, queries, counts, distinct values, streams, deep populate and master save. No code to write.

TypeScript

Custom APIs

Write a TypeScript function, save it, and the API is live.

Live

WebSockets

Push live updates to web and mobile apps, only to the sockets that match.

Instant APIs

Your database, as an API, in seconds

Connect a database and every table answers at a URL you can guess, with filters, sorting, paging, field selection, deep populate and streams. Call it from any language: it is plain REST.

API Maker + AI

How API Maker + AI changes the whole development process

An AI assistant writes code in seconds. On a traditional backend, all of that code is still yours to review, secure, test and scale. On API Maker, the assistant writes only the business logic, and the framework generates, checks and runs everything around it.

You
AI assistant
API Maker

Connect the data
Point API Maker at your database: about 30 APIs for every table, on 8 database types, with TypeScript interfaces of your schemas.
Done by:API Maker
Describe the product
You decide what the product must do. Your AI assistant writes only the business logic: custom APIs, hooks and schedulers in TypeScript, in your own editor.
Done by:YouAI assistant
Checked by the framework
Every call passes the groups of its user, writes through the schema APIs are validated, and your hook code is read for data leaks.
Done by:API Maker
Tested
Test cases with mocks run on API Maker. Your assistant starts them with npm run test and reads the coverage.
Done by:AI assistantAPI Maker
Live, and ready to scale
Save and the API is live. A Git pull deploys it, and more servers with the same .env carry more traffic.
Done by:API Maker

Scalability from the framework

Part of how API Maker runs, not something each project builds again.

cpuCount starts a worker process per core, AUTO sizes it to the server
More servers with the same .env: any of them answers any request
One Redis cache for every server, reset by the writes
Schedulers run once across all the servers
Your code in sandboxes with time and memory limits

See the deployment architectures

Security enforced by the framework

The same rules for every API, whoever wrote the code: you, your team or your AI assistant.

A token is required by default, and groups decide down to the field
Writes through the schema APIs are converted and validated
Your code runs in its own containers, apart from API Maker
Your code and settings are read for data leaks, and the fixes are prepared

See the APIs Security Report

Three ways to build

How API Maker ImprovesYour Backend Development Process

The same project built three ways: by hand, with an AI assistant, and with an AI assistant on API Maker.

Building the backendTraditional BackendWritten and run by handTraditional Backend + AIWritten faster, still yours to review and runBest of bothTraditional Backend + AI + API MakerAI writes the business logic, the framework does the rest

CRUD APIs

Traditional BackendCRUD and paging APIs written by hand for almost every table

+ AIAn assistant writes them in minutes, and each one is still code to review, test and maintain

+ AI + API Maker

Generated for every table the moment the database is connected: no endpoint code to maintain

TimeEffortHow

Web and mobile

Traditional BackendSeparate endpoints for the web app and the mobile app

+ AIQuick to add, so a new endpoint appears for every screen and the code base keeps growing

+ AI + API Maker

One API: each caller picks its filters, fields, sort, related rows and format

TimeHow

Joins

Traditional BackendJoins and saves across tables and databases written by hand

+ AIGenerated queries that still need checking for correct results and speed

+ AI + API Maker

Find and join, deep populate and master save across 8 database types

TimeEffortHow

Schema changes

Traditional BackendEvery schema change means refactoring, retesting and new bugs

+ AIThe refactoring is faster, the retesting and the review are not

+ AI + API Maker

Generated APIs work on the table as it is, the schema is detected from it

TimeEffortHow

AI writes code faster. API Maker leaves far less code to write, and enforces security and scale from the framework itself.

Saves: TimeMoneyEffort · Use it and find more

Security from the framework

API security, enforced by the framework itself

A data leak is rarely a broken database or network. It is one missing check in one API. API Maker does not wait for an audit: the framework validates the code that you and your AI assistant write, prepares a report of where data could leak, and prepares the actions that fix it.

Validates your code
Groups, API users, auth providers, settings and the code of every pre-hook, parsed as TypeScript. Nothing runs, and nothing changes until you choose.
Prepares the report
A score out of 100 and a grade from A to F. A leak of rows comes with the request that proves it.
Prepares the actions
A row scoping pre-hook, a column in the token, revoked grants, blocked inline SQL: many findings are fixed in one click, and you see the code first.
Keeps watching
While your local client is connected, changes are scanned on their own and the report is committed to Git, where your AI assistant reads it.
