“Integrating Neon was a no-brainer. It gives every Databutton app a production-grade Postgres database in seconds, with zero overhead. Our AI agent can now create, manage, and debug the entire stack, not just code” (Martin Skow Røed, CTO and co-founder of Databutton)
Databutton is a vibe coding platform that helps anyone create and deploy full-stack web applications with zero code. At its heart is the Databutton AI Agent, an intelligent assistant that writes React frontends, FastAPI backends, tests your code, debugs errors, and manages secrets all guided by your prompts.
Postgres and Auth Built Right Into Every Databutton App
Databutton just made their Agent a whole lot more powerful. As of today, every new app created on the platform ships with a fully integrated Postgres database and built-in user authentication, with no configuration or external services required.
This launch (powered by Neon) eliminates one of the biggest sources of friction for Databutton users. Previously, setting up data persistence and authentication meant wiring up third-party tools like Supabase. That added complexity, extra configuration steps, and a significant number of support tickets, creating overhead for the Databutton team and a frustrating experience for users.
Now, that complexity is gone. Instead, every new Databutton app includes:
- Out-of-the-box data persistence: A native Postgres database is provisioned instantly with each new app, no setup required – your data is stored and ready to use from the start.
- User authentication: Built-in login, signup, and user management flows are now part of every app. There’s no need to wire up external auth services or handle tokens manually.
- Database management handled by AI: The Databutton AI Agent can now take care of schema design, data model migrations, and even fix common issues, giving non-technical builders a faster path to working apps with less troubleshooting.
This change doesn’t just simplify setup, it makes the agent much more capable – and Databutton users are already putting it to work. Some recent examples built with the new native stack include:
- A customer feedback dashboard that aggregates reviews across platforms
- A real-time sentiment monitor for social media, complete with alerts
- An inventory management system that tracks stock levels and auto-generates purchase orders

Behind the Scenes: Infra for Agents, Powered by Neon
While Databutton users won’t see it (and that’s the magic), the infrastructure behind this launch is powered by Neon.
Neon is serverless Postgres that provisions in seconds, scales automatically, and is managed entirely through API. It’s purpose-built for platforms like Databutton, where every user or app needs its own isolated database but without the high cost or operational burden that typically comes with managing fleet-scale infrastructure in the cloud.
Every time someone creates a new Databutton app, Neon silently spins up a dedicated Postgres project behind the scenes, complete with its own storage, compute, and connection strings. The setup is fully automated and invisible to the user, but the infrastructure is real, production-grade, and ready from the first query.
Postgres databases that spin up in a second, and scale to zero
Neon separates storage and compute, which means databases can be provisioned in under a second, suspended automatically when idle, and resumed in milliseconds. For Databutton, this enables a one-database-per-app model without incurring the typical overhead of managing thousands of long-lived instances.
Most platforms can’t afford to give every user a dedicated cloud instance. With Neon, that’s not only possible but highly efficient. Apps that sit idle don’t burn compute, and active apps scale on demand. It’s a perfect match for agent-native workflows, where infrastructure needs to appear instantly, do its job, and get out of the way.
Infrastructure that the agent can control
But what also makes this launch so powerful isn’t just that every app has Postgres – it’s that Databutton’s AI agent can now control it directly. Thanks to Neon’s developer-first API and 100% Postgres compatibility, the agent can:
- Create and evolve schemas as your app changes
- Run data migrations automatically
- Fix database-related issues in context, without human help
- Handle everything from first query to final deployment
Built for agent platforms at scale
The Neon API also gives Databutton full control over provisioning, usage, and cost management.
- Databases are isolated by default (one Neon project per app)
- Quotas can be defined per project for storage, compute, and write limits
- Inactive databases are automatically suspended to save on cost
- Usage can be tracked in real time, feeding internal dashboards or usage-based billing
- If a user wants to take their data with them, Databutton can transfer ownership of the Neon project in one API call
This is what lets Databutton ship serious infrastructure without hiring a DevOps team. It’s also why agent platforms keep choosing Neon as their backend engine.
