Modelence is a Y Combinator-backed cloud platform that runs your backend, databases, and scheduled jobs on AWS, with agents handling deployment and operations. You declare your app in one config file or connect a coding agent like Claude, Cursor, or Codex, and Modelence provisions resources, monitors them, and recovers from failures. Its App Builder also turns prompts into full-stack TypeScript apps. It suits founders and small teams moving prototypes into production.

• Persistent backend hosting: Run always-on processes, background workers, and scheduled jobs. Modelence builds, deploys, and restarts them, and it notices when a job stops running.
• Managed databases: When your app declares MongoDB, PostgreSQL, or Redis, Modelence provisions it and wires in the connection URL. Backups, failover, and connection handling are included.
• Production autopilot: Crashed processes restart, traffic moves to healthy instances, and capacity grows under load. You get a report afterward instead of a 3 a.m. page.
• Root-cause tracing: Memory leaks and slow queries are traced back to the line of code where they start, so you can fix the cause instead of the symptom.
• Declarative configuration and safe deploys: A single modelence.config.json declares your app, databases, and encrypted env vars. Each deploy is checked first, and a broken build never replaces the running version.
• Built-in authentication: Email/password, OAuth, and social sign-in, plus sessions, role-based access control, email verification, password reset, and an admin dashboard. User data stays in your own database.
• Coding agent integration: Connect Claude, Cursor, or Codex with a setup prompt so your agent can deploy and operate the app for you.
• AI app builder: Describe an app in plain English to get a full-stack TypeScript, React, and MongoDB app with auth, database, and monitoring. You can export it to GitHub or host it anywhere.

• Free tier to start: You can deploy hobby projects and prototypes at no cost, and the App Builder works on every plan, including Free.
• Backend-ready hosting: Persistent processes, workers, cron jobs, and multiple databases fill the gap that frontend-first platforms leave.
• Less ops work: Monitoring, alerts, backups, failover, and automatic recovery are part of the platform, so small teams don't need a dedicated DevOps person.
• No vendor lock-in: Modelence uses standard AWS primitives and an open-source framework, so you can export your code or recreate the setup in your own AWS account.
• Global region options: Apps run on AWS in 17 regions, with data encrypted at rest and in transit and stored in the region you pick.
• Support for growing teams: Founder testimonials on the site praise fast, personal help from the support team, and higher plans add a dedicated Slack channel and quarterly architecture reviews.

• Free instance sleeps when idle: The Free plan gives you one instance on shared resources in a single region, and it sleeps when idle. Always-on production apps need a paid plan starting at $20/month.
• vCPU limits by plan: Starter tops out at 4 vCPU, Pro at 16, and Scale at 64 across all your apps. Growing workloads force plan upgrades, while some usage-only platforms have no fixed tiers.
• Opinionated app builder stack: Generated apps use TypeScript, React, and MongoDB on the Modelence framework. Teams that want Python, other frontend frameworks, or a different primary database will have less flexibility.
• AWS-only managed hosting: Hosting runs on AWS, with no option for other clouds. Organizations standardized on GCP or Azure would need to run a separate stack.

• Moving a prototype to production: You built an MVP in Lovable or Replit and now need real hosting. Export the code, deploy it on Modelence, and get managed databases, monitoring, and backups without rebuilding your infrastructure.
• Outgrowing frontend-focused hosting: Your app needs background workers, scheduled jobs, or an extra Redis cache that Vercel or Supabase edge functions don't handle well. Declare them in one config file and Modelence provisions and runs them.
• Solo founders building a SaaS: You're building alone with Claude or Cursor and don't want to manage servers. Connect your coding agent so it can deploy, while autopilot handles crashes and scaling.
• Creating internal tools from a prompt: Describe an admin dashboard, approval workflow, or CRM in plain English. App Builder generates a full-stack app with login, roles, and a database that's ready for your team.
• Building AI-powered applications: Build tools like document summarizers, support agents, or chatbot builders that need persistent backends and databases, and run them with production monitoring from day one.
• Preparing applications for business customers: Selling to larger companies? Encrypted data, regional storage, automated backups, and Enterprise SOC 2 and SSO help you answer security questionnaires.
