Build backends for AI-built apps

Spala turns product intent into database, auth, REST APIs, backend logic, docs, publishing, and MCP access for coding agents.

Build backends for AI-built apps

Tell Spala what your app needs and get a backend you can inspect, edit, validate, and publish: database, auth, REST APIs, backend logic, docs, and agent access.

Start from the Copilot workspace and inspect the generated project graph.

Three ways to build

AI Copilot
Describe what you want in plain English. The AI builds your tables, flows, and endpoints — ready to use in seconds.
/features/ai-assistant

Lite Mode
Start with a Copilot workspace and project graph, then jump into focused backend tools.
/features/lite-mode

Function Editor
Use Gherkin, Visual, Split, and Code views to inspect and refine API behavior. No boilerplate, no setup.
/flows

Code View
Use Code view for advanced JavaScript while keeping built-in steps connected to visual views.
/flows/code-view

AI Agents & MCP
Connect Codex, Claude, Cursor, or another MCP client to discover Spala, authenticate, select a project, and hand off to the project MCP.
/agents/mcp

Project Agents
Create backend automations that run from chat, webhooks, schedules, database changes, or realtime events.
/features/project-agents

Frontend App
Preview and publish a static app UI next to the generated backend, or let an agent prepare the upload.
/features/frontend-app
