Quickstart
Create a project, copy the connection string, and ship without learning a custom platform first.
1. Choose an organization
Sign in, then select or create a Clerk organization from the dashboard header. CapyDB resolves the active organization from that Clerk context.
2. Create a project
Open the Projects view, create a project, and choose the target cluster and plan. The control plane will enqueue a provision job and attach the project to the active organization.
3. Connect
When the project reaches ready state, copy either the direct URL or the pooled URL from the connection details and drop it into your environment variables.
psql "$DATABASE_URL"4. Iterate without panic
- Create disposable preview databases for test and review flows
- Create backups before risky changes and restore from recorded backup keys
- Import an existing database from a source URL when moving from another host
- Rotate project credentials without rebuilding the project
Documentation
CapyDB gives you standard PostgreSQL with direct and pooled connections, disposable previews, backups, restores, imports, and organization-scoped API keys. No proprietary SDK required.
Connections
CapyDB speaks normal Postgres. One direct URL, one pooled URL, both usable from standard clients and frameworks.
