Prisma

Prisma is a TypeScript toolkit made up of an ORM, a managed Postgres database and a hosting service called Prisma Compute. The ORM is free and works with any Postgres client, while the platform parts have paid tiers.

Prisma ORM lets you define your data model in a schema file and generates a type-safe client for queries and migrations. Prisma Postgres provides a managed database, and Prisma Compute hosts Node.js, Bun or Next.js apps in the same project. The platform includes a command line interface and an API that developers and coding agents can drive.

• Type-safe client generated from your schema
• Managed Postgres database
• Hosting for Node.js, Bun and Next.js apps
• Preview databases for feature branches
• Spend limits on paid tiers

TypeScript teams that want the database, ORM and hosting in one place. It also suits developers who only need the ORM for a database they already run.

The ORM is free, and the platform has a free plan that needs no credit card. Paid tiers add more capacity and are billed through the platform, so check the current pricing page before you choose a plan. Your database and app run in a chosen region, so pick one close to your users.
