Neon

Serverless Postgres management powered by conversational AI agents

Neon brings branching, autoscaling, and scale-to-zero to Postgres. Your Tars AI agent creates projects, spins up database branches, manages compute endpoints, and controls permissions, giving developers and ops teams a chat-first interface to their entire database infrastructure.

Database operations through natural language

Your AI agent manages Neon projects, branches, databases, roles, and compute endpoints, turning complex Postgres administration into simple conversational commands.

Use Cases

Database workflows, reimagined through chat

See how development teams, platform engineers, and DevOps leads use AI agents to manage serverless Postgres infrastructure through natural conversations.

Instant Preview Environments for Every Pull Request

A developer opens a PR and needs a database for preview testing. They ask the agent to branch the production database. Your AI Agent creates a Neon branch with a dedicated compute endpoint and returns the connection URI, all in under 30 seconds. The developer plugs it into their preview deployment. When the PR merges, they ask the agent to delete the branch.

Self-Service Database Access for New Team Members

A new engineer starts and needs database access. Instead of filing a ticket, they message the chatbot. Your AI Agent verifies their email, adds project permissions in Neon, creates a role on the relevant branch, and provides the connection details. The engineer is productive on day one instead of waiting for admin provisioning.

Cost Monitoring and Compute Right-Sizing

Your engineering manager asks how much each project is costing. Your AI Agent pulls Neon consumption data across all projects, identifies branches with oversized compute that could scale down, and suggests autoscaling configurations to reduce spend. The manager gets actionable optimization recommendations through a five-minute conversation.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the AI agent create full database branches with data copies?

Yes. Neon's branching creates an instant copy-on-write clone of your database, including all data and schema. The agent triggers this through the Create Branch endpoint. The branch is ready in seconds, regardless of database size, because Neon uses a shared storage architecture.

Does the agent have access to the actual data inside my databases?

No. The Tars integration uses Neon's management API, which handles infrastructure operations like creating branches, managing endpoints, and controlling permissions. It does not execute SQL queries or access the data stored in your Postgres databases.

How does autoscaling work when the agent configures compute endpoints?

The agent sets minimum and maximum compute unit limits when creating or updating endpoints. Neon automatically scales CPU and RAM between those bounds based on workload demand. When traffic drops, the endpoint can scale to zero, and you only pay for active compute time.

Can the agent manage multiple Neon projects and organizations?

Yes. The API key determines which organization the agent operates under. Within that scope, the agent can manage all projects, branches, databases, roles, and endpoints. For multi-org setups, you can configure separate Neon connections in Tars.

What permissions does the Neon API key need?

A standard Neon API key provides full management access to your account. For restricted access, you can create project-scoped API keys through the organization settings. The agent operates within whatever permissions your API key grants.

Can the agent restore a database branch to a previous state?

Yes. Neon supports point-in-time restore through the Restore Branch endpoint. The agent can trigger a restore to any point in your branch's history, which is useful for recovering from migrations gone wrong or accidental data changes.

How is this different from using the Neon console or CLI?

The console requires navigation and the CLI requires terminal access and command knowledge. With Tars, any team member can perform database operations through natural language. It is especially valuable for non-DBA developers who need to manage their own branches and environments.

Does the integration support Neon's JWKS authentication features?

Yes. The agent can add JWKS configurations to project endpoints, specifying the provider name, JWKS URL, JWT audience, and role mappings. This enables integration with authentication providers like Clerk, Auth0, and Stytch directly through conversation.
