Platform: Developers

Built to be verified.

Your workflow, intact: CLI, tests, branches, and your agents—with what runs underneath specified in enough detail to check.

A toolchain you’ll recognize.

Everything a serious backend expects, on a platform your whole team can see into:

Run and debug from the CLI

Run and debug from the CLI

Function-by-function execution, workflow tests across objects, unit tests within them.

Ephemeral environments

Ephemeral environments

Unlimited sandboxes per workspace, and disposable tenants for parallel work: spin one up per change, run the tests against it, promote it, or throw it away.

Write logic your way

Write logic your way

Three views of one artifact: the visual canvas, the function stack, and XanoScript code. Edit any view—in the product or your IDE—and the others stay in sync. Build visually, in code, or through your agent.

Build the whole app in TypeScript

Build the whole app in TypeScript

One XanoTS command scaffolds a typed backend, the frontend framework you pick, and the hosting behind both. Infrastructure and logic are declared together, and compile to the same artifact everything else on the platform produces.

Bring your own runtime

Bring your own runtime

Run any workload as a Docker microservice alongside your governed logic, with business rules and observability wrapped around it.

APIs, documented automatically

APIs, documented automatically

Every endpoint ships with autogenerated OpenAPI docs, so what's documented matches what runs.

Version everything

Version everything

Branching and merging, draft changes with revertible history, and a full change record for every object.

Your editor, your repo

Your editor, your repo

One-way Git sync commits every change to your GitHub or GitLab repo—a standing backup and an audit trail.

From your IDE, start to shipped:

$claude mcp add xano -- npx -y @xano/developer-mcp  # your agent, loaded with Xano docs and live validation
$xano workspace pull -d ./my-app  # your backend, on disk, as files
> "Add a signup endpoint that emails a welcome message"  # the agent writes it
$xano sandbox push -d ./my-app --review  # push to your sandbox, open the review diff
$xano workflow_test run_all  # run the suites against the sandbox
$xano workspace push -d ./my-app  # promote: preview, confirm, live

When something breaks,
you see where.
Immediately.

Stack traces that point to the failing stack, not a log dump. Step-through of functions with production data. Request history across every endpoint. An audit trail for every change, human or agent.

Stack traces pointing to the failing function

Nothing ships that you
didn't approve.

The release flow is the same everywhere: sandbox → immutable artifact → review → promote. The exact artifact your team inspected is what runs in production. Tenants give each client, region, or cohort its own database, URL, and lifecycle.

Sandbox, review, and promote release flow

Your cloud or ours. Any region. In a click.

Regional deployment in a click, across cloud hosts and hosting configurations. The common enterprise journey: start in your cloud, and hand over operations when we've earned it.

Standard substrate, no surprises: Xano runs on technology your platform team already operates—Kubernetes, Postgres, Redis.

Xano operates it end to end.

Deploys into your AWS, Azure, or GCP—your jurisdiction, your keys.

Including on-prem, for the environments that require it.

Understanding doesn't stop at your application.

Autopilot brings the same principle (see it, trust it, prove it) to the infrastructure your software runs on: continuous right-sizing of every pod, node, and autoscaler, applied in place.

Security, built into the platform.

Stateless handling of personally identifiable information. Workload isolation. A request-history off-switch. No training on customer data.
