InsForge April 2026 Update Cover

April was our first full month at YC, and we shipped 2x faster. We shipped updates to email, alerting, auth, database backup, migrations, storage, and developer tooling. Here are the updates from the past month.

Custom SMTP

You can now send transactional email from your own domain with Custom SMTP. Plug in any SMTP provider (Resend, Postmark, SendGrid, AWS SES, etc.) and edit your auth email templates directly from the dashboard.

Backend Alert Notifications

Backend alerts now notify you when your project is down or misbehaving, so you can fix issues before users notice. Get real-time visibility into your project health from the dashboard.

Auth Integrations

You can now use your existing identity provider with InsForge. Clerk, Auth0, WorkOS, Kinde, and Stytch are all supported, and InsForge accepts their JWTs natively for Row-Level Security. See the Clerk integration guide to get started.

Database Backup and Restore

Backup & Restore was our #1 requested feature. You can now create manual backups and keep them forever, or rely on automatic daily backups on a 7-day rolling window. If your agent drops a table at 2am, you can put it back at 2:01am.

Database Migrations

Database Migrations let you create a migration file, apply it to your database, and track every schema change in your codebase. Successful migrations show up under Database Studio, and the new insforge db migrations CLI commands plus InsForge Skills mean your coding agent can manage schema changes from the terminal.

S3 Compatible Storage Gateway

InsForge Storage now exposes an S3 compatible API. Any tool in the S3 ecosystem (aws-cli, Boto3, Rclone, Cyberduck) works directly with InsForge buckets.

InsForge Diagnose CLI

The new Diagnose CLI lets your agent ask things like "why is my project down?" or "why is this query slow?" and get back actual telemetry. We've been using it to debug customer projects.

Supabase to InsForge Skills

More developers have been asking us how to move off Supabase, so we built a set of skills that walk your agent through the migration. If you're considering the move and want a hand, reach out.
