Pain narrative

Your prototype is working - now keep it alive.

  • + No cold starts when somebody opens the app again tomorrow.
  • + No compute unit math or metered platform puzzles to decode first.
  • + Standard Postgres tooling, so your prototype can grow up without a rewrite.

Shipping loop

Keep the momentum, keep the stack.

The whole point is to keep your prototype feeling real. You keep a normal Postgres connection string, normal clients, and a database that stays on.

Wake-up tax

none

The database is meant to feel available when you come back to the project.

Billing mental load

flat plans

You pick a tier instead of tracking burst math or opaque platform units.

Tooling

standard Postgres

psql, ORMs, migration tools, and admin clients still work the way you expect.

Next step

ship the app

The database stops being the side quest so you can stay in product mode.

How it works

From zero to first query.

01

Create database

Spin up a database from the dashboard and label it by app or environment so you know exactly what it is for.

Name: app-prod
Tier: choose your plan
Ready to connect in about 15 seconds

02

Copy connection string

Grab the full DATABASE_URL from the dashboard and move it into your app platform secret store.

export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:pass@db.mvp-db.com:5432/app_prod"
Keep it in secrets, not in Git
Reuse the same pattern for dev/staging/prod

03

Run first query

Use standard Postgres tooling right away, whether you prefer a shell, an ORM, or your normal migration flow.

psql "$DATABASE_URL"
npx prisma migrate deploy
await db.execute(sql`select 1`);

Explicit tradeoffs

What this product is, clearly.

These pages are meant to help someone qualify MVP DB quickly, not discover surprises after signup.

Isolation model

Schema-level virtual database on shared infrastructure. Isolation is logical rather than a dedicated box.

Region

eu-central-1 (Frankfurt).

Billing

Secure billing. Yearly plans include a 14-day trial. Cancel anytime, and contact us if you're not satisfied.

Reliability

No formal SLA. Best-effort reliability for teams optimizing for simplicity and price.
