Spala is our answer to that gap. It gives AI-built apps an inspectable backend contract: database, auth, REST APIs, backend logic, docs, publishing, frontend handoff, and MCP access for coding agents. The current goal is not to replace every backend platform. Spala is strongest when a founder, agency, or product team already has an app idea, AI-built frontend, or prototype and needs a backend they can inspect, test, publish, and give to the next developer or agent. We would especially value feedback on the first 10 minutes: project creation, Copilot workflow, API testing, frontend handoff, and MCP connection.",
