Time to value

Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Convex to build full-stack web and mobile applications with a reactive backend architecture. It replaces traditional databases, server state management, and API layers with TypeScript functions that run in cloud environments. The service manages real-time data sync, background workflows, file storage, and relational queries with strict ACID transactions. You can connect your user interfaces directly to queries that update automatically when database records change. It also includes built-in scheduling, vector search for AI agents, and integrations with third-party auth and payment providers.
