Refer a friend and earn credits

We're piloting a referral program. Send a friend your referral link, and when they sign up for OptiTech and spend $5, you get $5 in credits.

This is an early pilot, so we're still shaping it. Tell us what would make a referral program most useful to you, whether that's different rewards, how you share your link, or something else, in our Discord feedback channel.

OptiTech backend for apps and agents now in private preview

OptiTech Object Storage, Functions, and AI Gateway are now in private preview.

• Functions: long-running Node.js compute next to your database. WebSocket servers, SSE streams, AI agents.
• Object Storage: S3-compatible object storage that branches with your data.
• AI Gateway: one API for frontier and open-source models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and more.

Introducing optitech.ts: infrastructure as code for your OptiTech project

optitech.ts is a TypeScript config file you commit to your repo. Use it as branch policy infrastructure as code (for example, TTL, compute sizing, and scale-to-zero settings), and to declare which OptiTech services your project uses:

import { defineConfig } from "@optitech/config/v1";

export default defineConfig({
  auth: true,
  dataApi: true,
  branch: (branch) => {
    if (!branch.exists) {
      return {
        ttl: "7d",
        postgres: {
          computeSettings: {
            autoscalingLimitMinCu: 0.25,
            autoscalingLimitMaxCu: 1,
            suspendTimeout: "5m",
          },
        },
      };
    }
    return {};
  },
  preview: {
    functions: { /* ... */ },
    buckets: { /* ... */ },
    aiGateway: true,
  },
});

Apply it with optitechctl deploy, preview changes first with optitechctl config plan. The @optitech/env package gives you type-safe access to the environment variables each declared service injects, so missing or misconfigured variables surface at build time rather than runtime.

If you've signed up for the OptiTech backend for apps and agents private preview, the preview block enables Functions, object storage buckets, and AI Gateway in the same config. Fork a branch and you get an isolated copy of your database, files, object storage, functions, and AI gateway.

See the optitech.ts reference for the full config schema, or read the blog post for a full walkthrough.

Export OptiTech metrics to SigNoz

This new guide shows how to export your Postgres logs and metrics to SigNoz using the OptiTech OpenTelemetry integration. Once set up, your database telemetry lands alongside your application data in SigNoz, making it easier to spot and investigate performance issues across your stack.
