Why Xano

Modernize without disruption by turning legacy systems into secure, easy-to-integrate services, so your teams can move faster without the risk or cost of a full rebuild.

API-first integration

Wrap legacy systems in secure, well-documented APIs so new apps can move fast without risky, direct DB access.

Consistent endpoints even when backends differ

Auto-generated docs for internal and partner teams

Pagination, filtering, and sorting patterns standardized

Backwards-compatible changes with versioning

Extensible logic and integrations

Extend legacy systems instead of ripping them out. Xano connects to your existing data and services while letting you layer on new capabilities.

Connect to any database or third-party API

Reuse existing business rules without rewriting

Compose new services from old and modern systems together

Standardize how data flows across your stack

Automated workflows

Replace cron jobs and manual steps with reliable orchestration. Visual builders, schedules, idempotency, and centralized logs make operations predictable and recoverable.

Visual builders for branching and retries

Schedules, webhooks, and event buses as triggers

Human-in-the-loop approvals and overrides when needed

Central logs for troubleshooting and audits

Enterprise-grade security and compliance

Meet internal and external requirements without building security from scratch. With Xano, you get authentication, access control, and audit-ready logging to enforce consistent policies.

Role-based access for least-privilege users and tokens

Token and secret management with env vars and secure storage

Logs available for monitoring and export to support auditing and compliance workflows

Regional deployments (cloud or on-prem) for data residency

Enterprise-grade security and compliance

Scalable cloud or on-prem deployment

Run where your constraints demand—managed cloud for speed or private/on-prem for control. Keep the same tooling and APIs across environments so workflows stay portable.
