Product
PostgreSQL as a project on your account
Zinprex is a Database-as-a-Service for PostgreSQL. You do not install a cluster. You create a project on a solo or agency account and receive a database you can connect to.
What you create
A project
Named resource owned by the account. The dashboard action is the same idea as “create database”: the provisioned Postgres database is attached to the project, not to a user row.
A PostgreSQL database
One physical database and login role per project on a shared cluster. Cheaper than a dedicated instance, stricter than schema-per-tenant. Dedicated instances are not a v1 SKU.
Connection strings
Ready databases expose host, port, database name, user, password, TLS flag, and a connection string. Rotate credentials from the dashboard when a secret leaks. Rotation is generated server-side.
Fetch the same payload programmatically with databases:connect. Metadata-only keys cannot see the password. See Connect and the public API.
API access
API keys are account-scoped. They authenticate https://api.zinprex.com/v1. They cannot call management routes or set a credit balance.
Authorization: Bearer zx_live_<public_id>_<secret>
Developer workflow
- Sign up on the app. A solo account is created with you as owner.
- Create the included project, or spend credits for another one.
- Point your ORM or psql at the connection string.
- Optionally issue a key for scripts that should not hold the database password.
Scalability, honestly
v1 is a shared RDS PostgreSQL cluster with one database per project. It is built for indie developers, small teams, and agencies — not multi-region HA. If that becomes a product, it will be described as a separate path, not implied here.
Security
Implemented
Isolated databases, hashed API keys, encrypted stored database passwords, parameterized data API, separate customer and management identities, account/project status as the access gate.
Not claimed
No published SOC 2 report, no uptime number, no PITR UI, no customer-facing connection pooling product. Read security docs.
Who it is for
Solo developers
One included project. Credits if you need another database.
Small agencies
Convert once. Create projects at the agency catalog rate. Members come after conversion.
Not v1
Enterprise procurement, multi-region failover, and dedicated instances.
