Xano is a no-code backend-as-a-service platform designed to help users build, manage, and scale backend infrastructure without traditional server-side programming. It provides a visual interface for creating and managing PostgreSQL databases, designing RESTful APIs, and building business logic through a function stack editor. Users can define data models, set up authentication, handle file storage, and create complex workflows using a visual, step-based approach. Xano supports real-time functionality, background tasks, and custom code execution for advanced use cases. The platform is aimed at no-code and low-code builders, product teams, and developers who want to accelerate backend development. It integrates with popular frontend no-code tools such as Bubble, Webflow, FlutterFlow, and Adalo, as well as other third-party services via APIs. Xano handles hosting and infrastructure scaling automatically, removing the need for DevOps management. It is used across a range of applications including SaaS products, marketplaces, mobile apps, and internal tools.
