In plain words
Powabase is a backend-as-a-service platform for building AI applications that combines Postgres, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agents, memory, workflows, and automation tools. It targets agencies and IT teams looking to develop new AI apps or integrate AI automation into existing products without managing multiple separate systems. The platform integrates with coding agents and emphasizes token efficiency and faster development cycles.

Powabase is a backend-as-a-service for AI-native applications, combining Postgres, RAG, agents, memory, workflows, and automation primitives in one platform. It helps agencies and in-house IT teams build new AI apps or add AI automation to existing products without stitching together fragmented infrastructure. Designed to work seamlessly with modern coding agents, Powabase helps teams ship faster while building more robust, token-efficient systems.
Every project gets its own Postgres, storage, auth, realtime, and an agent runtime. Documents extract, embed, and index on upload. Agents call tools over HTTP or MCP. Self-host it or use ours.
Powabase is the all-in-one development platform for AI apps. Comes with RAG, agents, drag & drop workflows. Fine-tuned for AI coding agents. Whatever you build with, Powabase is the backend behind it. Connect through the agent skill, the REST API, or the auth guide, then build on real Postgres, storage, auth, and agents. Anthropic's agentic coding tool for the terminal, IDE, and CI. Open-source terminal agent that runs on 75+ model providers. Install the Powabase skill once and your coding agent speaks the platform natively. Describe what you want — it wires up retrieval, agents, and workflows behind a single REST API. One REST API instead of a vector database, an agent framework, and the…from powabase.ai

SimplAI2025 · simplai.ai · ▲589Hey HN, I've been building SimplAI for the past several months — it's a platform for building, testing, and deploying LLM-powered agents and multi-step workflows. The problem I kept running into: spinning up an AI agent pipeline means stitching together prompt management, tool calling, memory, evals, and deployment — often from scratch every time. SimplAI tries to be the layer that handles all of that so you can focus on what your agent actually does. What it does: - Visual + code-first workflow builder for chaining LLM calls, tools, and APIs - Built-in prompt versioning and A/B testing…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
