Butterbase
Butterbase is an AI-native, open-source backend-as-a-service providing Postgres, auth, storage, functions, and an MCP server.
Butterbase provides a full backend stack for building AI-driven applications. The platform includes a Postgres-backed data plane with row-level security, serverless functions, an LLM gateway, file storage, and real-time subscriptions. It features a built-in Model Context Protocol server, allowing AI agents to interact directly with the backend using tools instead of glue code. It includes pre-built templates for complex applications like CRMs and support agents. Developers can deploy locally using Docker or via the managed platform for multi-region orchestration.
