Hey Product Hunt 👋

I'm Adarsh, cofounder of Backenly with @lakshmi_sunil

AI coding agents can now build an application in an afternoon. But once that application goes live, the backend still works the old way: it waits for a person to notice what broke.

APIs break. Schemas drift. Permissions leak. Migrations go wrong. Patches pile up. Eventually, someone has to stop building and start debugging the backend.

We started Backenly around one question:

If software is increasingly built by AI agents, why should the backend still depend on humans to keep it alive?

So we built an autonomous backend platform for AI coding agents.

Through MCP, agents can create and work with:

Postgres databases with row-level security
Authentication
Storage
Realtime
Functions

But the part we care about most begins after deployment.

Every minute, Backenly checks the running backend, works out what has gone wrong, fixes what it can verify and roll back, and confirms the fix worked. Anything it can't fix safely waits for your approval.

And we didn't want "autonomous" to mean endlessly applying patches.

If Backenly keeps finding problems in the same part of a table, or changes to it keep locking a table serving live traffic, that table might be doing two jobs.

Instead of adding another patch, Backenly can rehearse splitting it on a copy and show you the proposed change. Once you approve, it moves the data while your app keeps working.

That's the idea we're most excited about: a backend that repairs itself and changes shape as your application grows.

Of course, giving software this much autonomy creates a different problem: trust.

Every change Backenly makes autonomously must be reversible, verified after execution, and recorded in one history so you can see what changed and why.

Destructive changes, like dropping a table, always wait for your approval. Your coding agent cannot approve them on your behalf.

Getting started with Backenly

Start free at backenly.com and connect Claude Code, Cursor or Codex in one command: backenly.com/docs/connect

🎁 Launch offer: Use code PRODUCTHUNT50 for 50% off monthly Pro for three months.

We're still early, and that's exactly why we wanted to launch here.

I'd especially love feedback from people building with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other coding agents:

What would you trust an autonomous backend to change completely on its own, and what should always require your approval?

Lakshmi and I will be here all day answering questions. Really excited to hear what you think! 🚀
