Turso

Turso is an edge database platform built on libSQL, a fork of SQLite, offering both an embedded in-process database engine and a managed cloud service (Turso Cloud) for deploying millions of SQLite databases at the edge. Developers can programmatically manage databases, groups, organizations, and authentication tokens via the Turso Platform API, and execute SQL queries directly over HTTP using the libSQL HTTP API. Turso targets multi-tenant SaaS, AI agent architectures, and edge/serverless workloads where per-user or per-agent database isolation is required. The platform provides official SDKs for TypeScript, Go, Python, and mobile (iOS/Android), a CLI tool, and an MCP server integration for AI assistant access.

Turso publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Auth API, Locations API, Organizations API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Database, Edge Computing, SQLite, Developer Tools, and Multi-tenant.

The Turso catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Turso’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, pricing, CLI, code examples, and 15 more developer resources.
