Introducing Backify: AI-built apps, business-ready software.

AI coding agents have changed how fast software gets written. A developer, or a technical operations person working with Claude Code, can describe an internal tool in the morning and have a working version by the afternoon: a form, a few tables, some server logic, maybe a model call that classifies incoming requests.

Then the work stops. The app needs sign-in. It needs a database that isn't a file on someone's laptop. Secrets have to stay out of the browser. It needs somewhere to run, a preview the business owner can try, and a way to publish that IT is comfortable with. In most companies, that is where AI-built apps stall. Not because the code is wrong, but because there is no safe, repeatable path from a repository to production.

Today we're launching Backify to be that path.

The bottleneck moved

Writing code is no longer the slowest part of shipping an internal app. Assembling everything around it is. For each new app, someone sets up identity, data, file storage, CI, preview and production environments, monitoring and access control. An agent can write the infrastructure code too, but then every app gets slightly different infrastructure, its own credentials and its own security review. IT teams are right to be cautious about that.

We think the answer is a shared platform the agent builds on, with the controls an organization needs already in place.

How Backify works

1. Create an app in the Backify portal and choose where it runs.
2. Connect the Backify GitHub App and a repository.
3. Copy the app's setup prompt into your coding agent: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot or another. The agent reads agent.backify.dev, runs backify init, installs @backifydev/sdk and saves project instructions in the repository.
4. The agent builds the app with SDK capabilities and pushes to GitHub.

The SDK is how your app says what it needs: auth for sign-in, db for PostgreSQL, storage for files, defineFunction for server functions, jobs and jobs.schedule for background work, plus events, http.fetch, ai, secrets, config, audit and logs. The code expresses intent, not provider APIs. Builders develop and test locally with @backifydev/sdk/local.

When you push, Backify analyzes the code, records a versioned capability manifest, plans the infrastructure, provisions only what is missing, binds the runtime, then builds, deploys and verifies. You get a preview environment to review. Publishing to production is a separate, authorized step, with the revision recorded and a rollback available.

Applications never hold cloud-management credentials. Your code, and the agent that writes it, never receives the identity that deploys it.

Your cloud or ours

Most teams start on Backify Cloud. It is the only hosting option on Starter and Team, and there is nothing to set up.

On Business, apps can run in your own Azure subscription instead. Backify deploys Container Apps, Container Registry, Storage, Key Vault and PostgreSQL into a resource group you designate, and you pay Microsoft directly. Preview and production run as separate Container Apps. Three identities stay separate: the Backify deployment principal, used only by the deployment worker; a GitHub CI principal that pushes images through repository- and branch-specific federation; and the application's own runtime identity.

One thing to be clear about: hosting in your Azure does not put all of Backify in your tenant. Our control plane, which handles authorization, policy, approvals, audit and deployment orchestration, stays with Backify. It is hosted in Azure North Europe. The processing schedule will be confirmed in the DPA. Review those data flows separately from your application's.

Governance that scales down as well as up

Backify organizes everything as Organization → Workspace → Application → Environment. You assign Developer, Publisher, Approver, Viewer or Auditor roles at the scope where they're needed, and they apply to that resource and what sits below it. Joining an organization doesn't grant access to its apps. An owning team records who is accountable for an app; it doesn't replace permissions.

Membership, team, access, ownership and role changes, connection sharing and deployments generate audit events. Business adds release approvals, region policies, one year of audit history with export, and full data-compliance findings with reviews and evidence.

Platform controls don't secure your business logic. Your app still has to enforce authorization in server code and scope data to the right user or organization, and someone should review what the agent wrote. Backify makes that review part of the release, not an afterthought.

What it costs

Prices are before tax, in EUR or USD with the same numbers.

• Starter: 19/month for one builder and one Backify-hosted app, with hard usage caps. A 30-day money-back guarantee covers your first Starter purchase.
• Team: 39 per builder/month, three hosted apps included, more at 9 per app/month.
• Business: 11,880/year with ten builders and 25 apps, hosted by Backify or in your own Azure.
• Enterprise: from about 30,000/year, with multiple Azure tenants and subscriptions, custom audit retention and a contractual SLA.

Viewers, approvers, auditors and your apps' end users are free on every plan. There is no free plan or free trial. See pricing for usage allowances, or compare Backify with building it yourself on Azure using your own assumptions.

What isn't there yet

We're early, and we'd rather you hear the gaps from us.

• No certifications yet. We don't have a SOC 2 report or an ISO 27001 certificate, and no independent penetration test has been completed. We have a readiness plan: inventory, risk assessment, access reviews, incident handling, supplier reviews and a tested restore, then an independent pentest, an external readiness assessment and a scoped audit. We haven't committed to dates.
• No published SLA. There is no public uptime SLA or support response time. Enterprise SLAs are agreed per contract.
• Draft legal terms. Our terms, DPA and provider register are pre-release drafts, version 2026-10-28, pending legal approval.
• Azure only for your own cloud. Customer hosting supports Azure today.
• A control-plane dependency. Your code lives in your GitHub and the SDK expresses intent rather than provider APIs, but deployment and governance depend on Backify's control plane. We plan for offboarding up front; it is still work.
• No public customers yet. We're working with early design partners and will share results when they are ready to be shared.

When Backify isn't the right choice

If you mainly ship a Next.js frontend and want the best edge delivery, Vercel or Netlify will serve you well. If a non-developer wants the fastest prompt-to-prototype, Lovable, Bolt or Replit are hard to beat. If your platform team already runs a mature paved road on Azure, you may not need us. Backify is for apps that have to reach production with IT in control, built by any coding agent, with the code in your GitHub.

Try it

Pick one workflow your team has been waiting on. Create the app, paste the setup prompt into your coding agent and review the preview it deploys. Read getting started or the documentation first if you prefer.
