InsForge is the backend built for agentic development. We offer everything AI agents need to build fullstack apps that scale. Our open source backend (~2K stars on GitHub) provides databases, auth, storage, model gateway and edge functions accessible through a semantic layer that agents can understand, reason about, and operate end to end. Say the word, and you can deploy to InsForge Cloud or your own domain.
This is the 2nd launch from InsForge. View more

Launched this week
InsForge is the backend built for agentic development. We offer everything AI agents need to build fullstack apps that scale. Our open source backend (2.3K stars on GitHub) provides databases, auth, storage, model gateway and edge functions accessible through a semantic layer that agents can understand, reason about, and operate end to end. Say the word, and you can deploy to InsForge Cloud or your own domain.
Launch Team / Built With
@hanghuang @tonychang430 Really interesting launch.
Reading through the architecture and the way InsForge exposes backend primitives through a semantic layer for agents, something stood out.
It seems to behave less like a traditional backend-as-a-service (like Supabase or Firebase) and more like infrastructure designed for agents to operate application backends directly.
Especially when agents can provision databases, deploy functions and manage resources without the human developer operating the stack.
Curious how the team thinks about this internally.
Is InsForge evolving primarily as a backend platform for developers using agents, or closer to infrastructure where agents themselves become the primary operators of the backend?
@hanghuang @tonychang430 @cauan_martins Spot on. You hit the nail on the head regarding our internal philosophy. We see InsForge as the "OS for Agents"—where the agent is the primary operator, not just a tool. We're building for a future where agents handle the infrastructure so humans can stay focused on the intent.

@curiouskitty I think is how we expose the backend as structured data type for agents to self-introspect and use. And with this capability, agents can use the InsForge platform like human developers. Reasoning and fetching information (when needed), so their performance will be much higher!
As for struggles, I think definitely context, that's why we build this semantic layer.
Raycast
Thrilled to back @hanghuang and the InsForge team on their Product Hunt launch.
InsForge is an AI‑native backend built for agents.
This isn't “AI bolted on,” this is starting with agent experience, and building on that foundation.
The unlock is a semantic layer that agents can actually read and act on.
Agents introspect policies and provision resources, so you can ship full‑stack apps end‑to‑end.
This adds up to:
Faster setup with npx. One install. Go build.
Agents working inside your IDEs (Cursor, Claude, etc.). No new UI to learn.
Benchmarked performance demonstrates higher accuracy, greater token efficiency, and lower latency.
If you’re exploring agentic development—or migrating off legacy backends—InsForge is the platform that gives your agents the infra they need to tackle the heavy lifting.

@insforge @chrismessina thanks Chris for hunting us 🙏

@hanghuang @insforge @chrismessina Thanks for hunting InsForge 🫡
@hanghuang @insforge @chrismessina Honored to have you hunting us, Chris! Thanks for capturing the essence of InsForge so perfectly.
Pieces for Developers
So I've had the chance of trying out the remote MCP server from Minns Foods with Claude Code and also with Codex. The capability of just being able to very quickly build applications and also deploy them with a full-fledged database authentication is just wonderful. The developer experience is great, like a one-shot prompt; you can get your full stack up and ready. I feel that, when comparing it with being able to do more complex tasks as compared to the developer experience that you get with Supabase, I certainly feel that I've had much more success in being able to do things faster. The overall performance also feels a lot more snappier.
I'm glad that we have this capability with a really robust MCP server that has all of the built-in capabilities to automatically fetch stocks and then also just one-click deploy the app on ourselves. It has been pretty fun to work with.
InsForge
@shivaylamba thank you so much! And I think InsForge is not just good for 1-shot prototyping, but also continues building!
@shivaylamba Thanks for the detailed feedback, Shivay! Really glad you felt that 'snappier' performance—optimizing the dev-to-deploy loop was a huge priority for us.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m @hanghuang, co-founder of InsForge.
Before starting InsForge, I was a Product Manager at Amazon and have always enjoyed building products and launching side projects to test new ideas.
InsForge is the backend built for agentic development — giving agents everything they need to ship fullstack apps, fast.
Most backend platforms are designed for human developers. But InsForge starts with agent experience.
Our platform (2.1K+ stars on GitHub) exposes backend primitives like databases, auth, storage, and functions through a semantic layer that agents understand, can reason about, and operate end to end:
With InsForge, your agent can:
Set up everything needed to ship fullstack apps
Launch and deploy your applications on a hosted or custom URL
Build applications that are secure and scale
Building on InsForge is faster and more reliable — up to 14% more accurate, 1.4x faster, and 2.4x more token efficient than SupaBase — as demonstrated in our MCPMark v2 benchmark.

We’re excited to share this with the Product Hunt community and can't wait to see what you build. Thanks for checking us out, and huge thanks to our hunter @chrismessina for hunting us🙏

@hanghuang @insforge @chrismessina Been running into exactly this with multi-instance setups. Agents don't really "get" the backend, they just guess at API shapes and hope for the best. How do your edge functions handle concurrency when multiple agents hit the same resources?
InsForge
@insforge @chrismessina @alan_silverstreams we use the best service Deno! It is auto scaling capability and deployed on edge, so performance is shockingly good!
@insforge @chrismessina @hanghuang Oh nice, Deno's edge runtime is solid for that. Curious how it handles state between requests though, like if two agents hit the same function and need to coordinate. Is that all stateless or do you have some persistence layer?
@hanghuang @insforge @chrismessina Congrats on this, guys! For teams already deep in Supabase — existing tables, RLS policies, edge functions — is InsForge only a replacement or can it layer on top?
@hanghuang Congrats on the launch! Quick question: how does InsForge handle data isolation?
Vozo AI — Video localization
Congrats on the launch! Would love to know how this integrates with tools like Cursor or Claude Code in real workflows
InsForge
@josie_oy Thanks! Great question. We built InsForge so tools like Cursor or Claude Code can actually operate the backend directly. The agent can understand the system through MCP and do things like create databases, set up auth, or deploy functions!
InsForge
@josie_oy please reach out if you need anything from InsForge team!
InsForge
@josie_oy We have InsForge MCP and Skills to help you connect smoothly. It works out of box for any agents!

As someone who mostly dabbles in front-end and rarely backend, I'm always afraid I'll set up something wrong that causes a recursive loop and spikes my cloud or database cost somewhere. Are there ways that InsForge can also help with ensuring the code is cost-optimized as well?
InsForge
@lienchueh We provided best practices and log retrieval for agents!
@lienchueh I feel you. InsForge simplifies the backend heavy lifting so you won't have to worry about those hidden recursive traps. It's built to keep things safe and cost-efficient by default!
