Backend as a service
Backend as a service. With the admin panel your team actually uses.
A database, a REST API, auth and storage — plus an advanced admin panel and back-office tools on top. Build it from blocks or let AI build it, then edit everything visually. For every business, and every developer.
The stack
Four layers. Zero servers.
Each layer is built on the one below and kept in step automatically — change a model and its API, admin screens and dashboards change with it.
Layer 1 · Database
Models, done properly.
Describe what you keep track of and MINT creates a real database collection for it — text, numbers, dates, options, images, files, colours, passwords and more.
Relations
Link models to each other; linked records open from anywhere.
Formulas
Fields that calculate themselves and stay up to date.
Validation
Required fields, allowed values, defaults — enforced on every write.
Private records
Records only their owner, or the people they share with, can open.
Edit it visually
Your database, as easy as a spreadsheet.
Every model gets a table and a form the moment it exists. Edit records, change many at once, bring a spreadsheet in — with validation on every change and an undo for every mistake.
Layer 2 · API & auth
An API you never had to write.
Turn on the public API for a model and pick what it allows — list, read, create, update, delete. Paging, sorting, filters and search are built in; customers sign in with a drop-in widget and only ever see their own records.

Back-office tools for every business.
The internal tools every business ends up needing — built once, done properly, and shaped around your models.
Dashboards
Numbers, charts and recent lists from any model.
Roles & access
Standard permissions, per-project access, invitations.
Your own sidebar
Sections, icons, and who sees each page.
Notifications
When records come in from your site or app.
Media library
Images, videos and files, per project or shared.
Activity
Everything that changed in the project, by whom.
Build it your way
Blocks or AI. Same backend.
Path A
Build with blocks
Click it together with the visual builders — every step previewed, drafted, then published.
Path B
Let AI build it
Describe it to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. It plans with you, then builds with the same checks.
A shop backend: products with categories, orders with line items, and a total that adds itself up.
Built 4 models
Product → Category
Order → Customer
Line item → Order, Product
total = Σ line items
Versus building it yourself
Months of plumbing, already done.
Everything on this list is something a team usually builds before the product can start. On MINT, it’s there on day one.
Your backend is waiting. So is your back office.
Join the waitlist and we’ll open a workspace for your team — set up for what you want to build.
