PocketBase
The Firebase and Supabase alternative
PocketBase packs a whole backend into one binary: an embedded SQLite database with a REST-ish API, built-in user authentication (email/password and OAuth2), realtime subscriptions over SSE, file storage, and a polished admin dashboard to manage it all. Build a web or mobile app against it with the official JavaScript and Dart SDKs, and never stand up Firebase or Supabase again. Your instance comes with the admin account already created — sign in and start defining collections.

Frequently asked
- How much does it cost to host PocketBase?
- Hosting PocketBase on Zenith is $5 / month, billed monthly until you cancel.
- How long does PocketBase take to deploy?
- Most apps are live on your own subdomain in about two minutes after you deploy.
- Do I need to manage a server to run PocketBase?
- No. Zenith runs PocketBase for you, with no servers to provision or maintain.
- Can I use my own domain with PocketBase?
- Yes. Each deployment gets a Zenith subdomain, and you can map your own custom domain to it afterwards.
- Can I deploy PocketBase with Claude or another AI agent?
- Yes. Zenith has a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at https://zenith.hosting/mcp, so you can deploy and manage PocketBase straight from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Add the endpoint, approve the one-click connection, and ask your agent to deploy. Setup is at https://zenith.hosting/connect.
