What customers say
“Instant lets us move fast without cutting corners. The schema and permissions are a joy to work with, recovery features have saved us a couple of times, and real-time sync eliminates a ton of boilerplate. The best part? Every time we demo our WhatsApp integration and every action instantly shows up on the web dashboard, clients are in awe. And it took zero effort on our part to achieve that magic.”
“Before Instant every feature we shipped came with a handoff: a frontend engineer communicated with a backend engineer. Today, everyone is a full-stack engineer. The very first piece of frontend already comes with persistence.”
“When I was choosing a backend for HeroUI, I was looking for speed: I wanted creating objects, modifying them, just about every detail, to feel fast. With Instant not only did we get optimistic updates, but we got real-time updates, and collisions. Just about all the problems we were worried about came solved. At that point I do not want to use any database other than Instant.”
