Nhost provides Postgres, GraphQL (Hasura), authentication, storage, and serverless functions. Open-source BaaS with a GraphQL-first approach.
Reviewer scorecard
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“Hasura-powered GraphQL over Postgres with auth and storage. The GraphQL-first approach is powerful for complex data needs.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“If you want GraphQL, Nhost is the best BaaS option. Hasura's automatic GraphQL from Postgres is genuinely useful.”
“Interesting concept but the execution isn't there yet. Give it 6 months.”
“GraphQL adoption has plateaued. tRPC and REST are simpler for most use cases. Nhost's bet on GraphQL is risky.”
