Jetstack
Platform

Everything an app needs a backend team for.

One platform, one API, one operations model. The secure backend runs underneath — you build the product on top.

How it fits together

Your app sits on top. Everything else is the platform.

You design the model and the workflows. Jetstack runs them — with hosting, queues, files, AI, and audit-grade observability already wired in.

The product

Modules in practice.

The building blocks teams use day-to-day to ship business apps fast and keep them predictable.

Data model

Define object prototypes and properties with explicit data types and constraints. The core handles many lower-level invariants implicitly so your team focuses on model quality, not boilerplate.

  • Object types and properties with constraints
  • Conditional display, calculations, masked fields
  • Reusable structures and references
No ceiling

When configuration isn't enough, write code.

Most apps never need this. When yours does, you don't migrate off the platform — you go deeper into it. Host your own frontend and custom backend logic right here, with direct access to the same internal APIs the platform runs on.

Bring your own frontend

Host a React or Vite app on the platform. It inherits identity, authentication, and data access — so the UI stays focused on the experience.

A backend shaped to the frontend

A purpose-built backend-for-frontend layer. Sandboxed server code with a stable internal interface to platform data and services.

Direct access to internal APIs

Your code talks to the same internal APIs the platform runs on — records, files, search, permissions, queues — without round-trips through a public gateway.

Edit in place

A built-in code editor. No separate toolchain to wire up — change code where it runs.

Optimized, self-contained builds

Code is compiled and packaged into an optimized production build. No build servers for you to maintain.

Versioned and reversible

Every code deploy is tracked and can be stepped back if a release misbehaves — all inside a controlled boundary that preserves the platform's security guarantees.

AI & automation

AI that does the work, not just chat.

AI runs through the platform, not bolted on the side — from an in-app assistant to autonomous agents that act through the same governed tools and permissions as everyone else.

AI sidecar

An in-app assistant that understands your data model and helps people navigate, build, and configure — without leaving the app.

MCP, both directions

Expose your data to Claude, Cursor, or any agent through a built-in MCP server — and reach outward to external MCP servers your workflows can call.

AI agents

Autonomous agents that work a task across multiple steps, using the platform's own capabilities as their action surface — governed by the same permissions.

Automation builder

A visual builder for workflows: branch on data, drop in JavaScript, call AI, and iterate over large streams — or stay single-step simple.

Custom connectors

Connect to external data and apps with custom connectors — bring third-party services into your model and your automations.

AI in the data model

Let AI accelerate the slowest part of implementation — shaping the model and drafting automations.

The platform underneath

Capability map.

The infrastructure layer most teams build, run, and pay for separately — already inside Jetstack.

Runtime & infrastructure

Production-grade hosting, scaling, and delivery — managed.

  • AWS-backed hosting

    Workloads run on AWS. Inherits AWS-grade reliability and certifications.

  • Simple scaling

    Defined tiers per app. Match cost to actual needs and switch on demand.

  • Zero-config deploy

    Ship app changes through the platform — no build pipelines to maintain.

  • Global delivery & TLS

    Edge delivery, automatic certificates, secure-by-default endpoints.

Data & API

A stable, predictable API surface that reflects your model.

  • Stable REST API

    Reflects model changes on the fly. Predictable filtering and pagination.

  • Full-text search

    Fast, indexed search across object data and properties.

  • Rate limiting

    Per-key, per-route limits. Transparent quotas and headers.

  • Webhooks

    Outbound events with signing, retries, and delivery logs.

Async, events & scheduling

Run work later. Tell devices when it happens.

  • Job queues

    Durable queues for retryable async work with backoff and dead-letter visibility.

  • Event scheduling

    Schedule actions for an exact time. One-shot or recurring.

  • SSE for terminals

    Subscribe terminal devices to a server-sent event stream out of the box.

  • Mobile & web push

    Built-in push channel — including notifications to mobile devices.

Files & content

A real file repository with secure delivery, not just blob storage.

  • File repository

    First-class files attached to objects with metadata, versions, and auth.

  • Signed file URLs

    Time-bounded, tamper-proof links for controlled access to private files.

  • Transform & stream

    Resize, convert, sign, and stream files without external services.

  • Public pages

    Publish read-only views or content on shareable URLs.

Observability & governance

See what happened. Prove who did it.

  • Activity log

    Configurable audit log built for compliance and transparency obligations.

  • Monitoring

    Health, throughput, and error visibility per app.

  • Live logs

    Stream platform and app logs without leaving the console.

  • Roles & permissions

    Implicit-deny model, field- and record-level scoping.

AI & automations

Talk to your data via MCP from the environment you already use, plus a code-or-tools automation builder and AI agents.

  • MCP server

    Talk to your data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP environment — read, query, and trigger actions through the tools you already use.

  • Automations builder

    Compose workflows from a rich tool library — or drop into code.

  • AI agents

    Build and run agents with platform tools as their action surface.

  • Triggers & workflows

    Object events, schedules, webhooks, manual actions — with branching and retries.

Operational channels

In-app, email, and push notifications. Custom SMTP relay supported.

Widgets & plug-ins

Drop widgets onto dashboards and modules. Custom programming where you need it.

Transparent pricing

Flat entry, then a usage-based curve tied to data — no surprise dimensions.

Framework-first

The core is generic and fits broad system types — including large, complex apps.
