Nhost
A fully managed backend platform with Postgres, GraphQL, Auth, Storage, and serverless
Nhost is a managed backend platform that combines a Postgres database, GraphQL API, authentication, storage, serverless functions, container hosting, and an AI toolkit in one service, reducing the need to assemble and operate infrastructure separately. It runs on AWS with regions across continents and a global CDN.
Core capabilities include a Postgres database with root access, extensions, automated backups, and point-in-time recovery; a Hasura GraphQL API with realtime subscriptions and role-based authorization; authentication with OAuth, WebAuthn, email/password, magic link, and 2FA; storage with a CDN and image transformation; JavaScript/TypeScript serverless functions; Nhost Run for deploying your own containers; and an AI toolkit with pgvector, auto-embeddings, and assistants. Development and operations are supported through a CLI for local work, Git-based deployments with CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code via Nhost Config, observability with logs and Managed Grafana, and a dashboard.
Nhost is aimed at developers and engineering teams building applications of varying scale. Plans are organized per organization across a free Starter tier, Pro, Team, and Enterprise editions, with usage-based charges for database storage, egress, function execution, and compute resources.
