Jetstack
Platform

Everything your apps would otherwise need a backend team for.

One platform. One API. One operations model. A secure backend 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
The platform underneath

Capability map.

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

#runtime

Runtime & infrastructure

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

Data & API

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

Async, events & scheduling

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

Files & content

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

Observability & governance

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

AI & automations

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.
