About PaperDB

We're building the backend layer modern frontend teams actually want to use.

PaperDB is a frontend-first Backend-as-a-Service — the document-database answer to Supabase and Firebase, with a single TypeScript SDK.

Our thesis

Developers shouldn't rebuild auth, storage, webhooks, and realtime for every new SaaS. PaperDB gives you a production API and dashboard so you can focus on product UI.

Open source at the core

The API, SDK, workers, and self-host stack are open source. Our cloud offering is for teams who want a managed control plane and operations handled for them.

Built for TypeScript teams

Schema-guided collections, full type inference in the SDK, and a dashboard that mirrors what the API already does — no ORM acrobatics required.
