Backenly is an autonomous backend platform for agentic coding, designed to manage database schemas, API wiring, access policies, monitoring, and recovery without human intervention. It enables coding agents to define and verify backend resources through an MCP server, ensuring continuous management of drift and other operational issues.

Features

01Autonomous Backend Management: An LLM planner derives entities and actions from natural language, with a closed-loop autonomy system that monitors and repairs running backends.
02Comprehensive Backend Services: Provides PostgreSQL databases, Auth & User management, Storage buckets, Realtime capabilities, and Serverless Functions.
03Governed and Reversible Changes: Every mutation flows through a single governed kernel, with dry-run, audit, and rollback capabilities to ensure safe and verifiable changes.
04Agent-Driven Development: Designed to be driven by coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor) over an MCP server, advertising 20 specialized tools.
