convex ergonomics
cli or dashboard — build your schema by clicking through forms or by deploying schema.ts. typescript end-to-end, aha moment in under 60 seconds.

the postgres backend
you actually own.
reactive queries, typed schema, one-command deploys — on vanilla postgres. worldwide multi-region hosting. self-hostable. export your whole project with one command, any day.
terminalzsh
# scaffold a new project npx briven init # deploy to briven.tech npx briven deploy
postgres underneath
every table is a real table. every query is real sql. pg_dump is your escape hatch.
worldwide, owned, portable
multi-region from day one. agpl-licensed core. export everything, any time.
boring reliability
daily backups, point-in-time recovery, monthly restore drills — from day one.
two paths to the same Postgres schema
cli + git
for engineers who want their schema in version control. write briven/schema.ts, briven deploy, the cli diffs against the live schema and applies the migration transactionally. functions live in briven/functions/ as plain TypeScript files.
dashboard / studio
for prototyping, one-off changes, and anyone who'd rather click than write TypeScript. studio gives you the full DDL surface (create / rename / drop table, column, index, FK), an inline SQL editor scoped to your schema, and a data browser with edit-in-place. copy as schema.ts graduates a click-built database back to git.
open the dashboard →both write to the same Postgres schema. mix freely.
pricing
every tier includes a monthly bucket of invocations, storage, bandwidth, and realtime connections. go past the bucket and the meter runs — no surprise-upgrade walls. cancel any time. pg_dump is always your escape hatch.
