Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Built-in Auth

Email/password, OAuth, API keys — per project. Centralized SSO via Logto out of the box.

File Storage

Upload, serve, and manage files per project. Local or S3-compatible. No configuration required.

Realtime Events

Server-sent events for live data. Subscribe to collection changes and sync across clients instantly.
