A Backend for Internal Tools — Instant API Over Your Data

Internal tools usually need the same thing: a database, an API over it, and access control — fast. Kolaybase turns a PostgreSQL schema into a secured REST API instantly, so you can focus on the tool's UI instead of plumbing.

Instant CRUD API

Define tables and get filtered, paginated endpoints immediately — perfect for admin panels and dashboards.

Role-based access

Use PostgreSQL roles and row-level security to give teams the right level of access to internal data.

Real SQL for reporting

Run ad-hoc queries, views, and aggregates directly in PostgreSQL for the metrics your team needs.

Self-host for compliance

Keep internal data on your own infrastructure with a Docker Compose deployment.

Query data for an admin dashboard

const { data } = await kb
  .from("signups")
  .select("plan, count:id.count()")
  .gte("created_at", "2026-01-01")
  .group("plan");
