Standard Postgres

Works with existing Postgres data models and
*any* managed Postgres host.

docker

Stateless self-host

Simple to deploy as a stateless service on Render,
Fly, AWS, GCP, etc.

Annotate your data model​

Choose which parts of your existing Postgres data model to expose:

ALTER TABLE items ENABLE ELECTRIFICATION;
ALTER TABLE items
  ENABLE ELECTRIFICATION;

Drop-on our sync layer​

Run a horizontally scalable Elixir service to handle active-active replication:

docker run -it -p 443 electric start
docker run -it -p 443 \
  electric start

Voila! Magic live data​

Using our Prisma-inspired client library and component framework hooks:

const { results } = useLiveQuery(db.projects.liveMany())
const { results } = useLiveQuery(
  db.projects.liveMany()
)

No API needed​

Just instant reactivity, realtime collaboration and resilient offline support.

Become a design partner

We're looking for design partners to work with us to build local-first applications on the next generation of the ElectricSQL platform.

You must have a Postgres-backed system and a business need to build instantly responsive, realtime multi-user, offline-capable apps or interfaces on top of it. You must also be willing to engage in the process and provide design feedback.

We'll invest development time, prioritise our roadmap to meet your requirements and work with you to help craft an optimal local-first experience for your users.
