Adaptive.ai is an AI builder platform focused on empowering non-technical users. It enables anyone – regardless of technical skill, to build fully functional applications. Just three weeks after launching, Adaptive had already acquired paying users in over 50 countries.

For a platform built with non-technical users in mind, requiring customers to set up external service accounts is a non-starter. To let users build complete applications seamlessly, Adaptive needed to handle the database layer internally.

To solve this, Adaptive partnered with Turso to deliver seamless database integration to its rapidly growing user base. Thanks to Turso’s cost structure, built to support unlimited databases – Adaptive has been able to scale confidently, already surpassing more than 2 million databases created, without compromising on margins.

#The Challenge: Database Versioning for AI-Powered Applications

Adaptive's platform allows non-technical users to build AI applications without coding knowledge. A key differentiator is their approach to application versioning - every prompt, every iteration, and every version of an application has its own dedicated database.

"Most platforms think about databases at the user or application level," explains Dennis Xu, Founder and CEO at Adaptive. "We take it further - each version of an application gets its own database instance. When users experiment with a new prompt or feature, we create a new database as a copy of the previous one, letting it evolve independently while preserving the original state."

#The Solution: Turso's SQLite Foundation

Turso Database provides the ideal infrastructure for Adaptive's versioning approach. Built on SQLite, where each database is simply a file, Turso enables:

  1. Effortless Branching: Creating a new version is as simple as copying a file
  2. Zero Idle Cost: Databases incur no charges when not actively in use
  3. Massive Scalability: Supporting millions of databases without prohibitive overhead

#Results: Unprecedented Database Density

The partnership has achieved remarkable scale: Adaptive has now crossed the 2 million database mark. This level of database density would be economically unfeasible with traditional database providers, where each instance carries significant overhead costs.

We believe Turso Cloud is the only platform in the market capable of achieving this level of database density affordability. While many know us for “per-user databases”, Adaptive demonstrates our ability to scale far beyond that, allowing for innovative architectures where one can have per-session, per-prompt, or per-version databases.

#Looking Forward

As Adaptive expands globally, Turso’s unique architecture ensures it can scale sustainably. The platform's ability to maintain millions of independent database instances while keeping costs manageable enables Adaptive to offer their non-technical users the sophisticated versioning capabilities previously available only to development teams with extensive database expertise.
