Kinvey

Kinvey (pronounced Kin-vey, like convey) is the first Backend as a Service that makes it ridiculously easy for developers to setup and operate a cloud backend for their mobile, tablet and web apps.

Our service lets app developers spend 100% of their time on their mobile application. They don’t have to worry about connecting to various cloud services, setting up servers for their backend, or maintaining and scaling them.

With Kinvey, developers just model their cloud backend needs and we auto-generate all the APIs they would need to access their data from any mobile, web or computing platform. Developers then grab their APIs, and connect to them directly or through native iOS, Android, JavaScript, etc., libraries that we provide.

We call it Backend as a Service.

Kinvey was founded in 2010 and is based in Cambridge, MA
