Piezas is a backend you don't build. You describe the app you want, an AI assistant builds it on Piezas, and you publish it to the web — the data, logins, scheduling, notifications, and hosting are already running. No servers, and no code you write by hand. Here's the whole journey — about five…
Your deployed app's secrets and config live in its hosted environment, encrypted at rest. You can set the environment variables via both the Terminal (CLI) as well as Piezas dashboard. To set it via the Piezas Dashboard: Step 1: Go to Apps on the left nav bar Click on the top right corner App…
An Admin invites from the console under Team: Invite as Admin — full access to the whole organization. Invite as Developer — pick the apps they should have access to (or "all current apps"). They'll be able to work inside just those. "All current apps" is a snapshot — it grants the apps that exist…
piezas init / deploy says my session expired. Run npx piezas login again. "You don't have access to this app." You're a Developer without a grant to that app. Ask an Admin to grant you access — once they do, npx piezas deploy and the console will find it. "Only an admin can create an app." Creating…
From inside a project scaffolded by piezas init: npx piezas deploy It packages your build, ships it to the Piezas app host, and prints a live URL (https://<your-app>.apps.piezas.ai). Deploys are blue/green — the new version only takes traffic once it's answering, so a broken build never takes your…
An API key or a device session authenticates the CLI. login sets up a session so init and deploy work without pasting a key each time. npx piezas login # prints a short code, opens app.piezas.ai/device to approve it npx piezas whoami # shows the signed-in tenant and email (exits 1 if logged out)…

The Notification service sends transactional email and SMS — receipts, password resets, booking confirmations — via templates or raw content, and tracks delivery. await piezas.notifications.send({ to: 'customer@example.com', template: 'booking_confirmed', // or raw subject/body data: { name: 'Ada',…
Most of the time you won't touch API keys directly — npx piezas init and your AI assistant handle them for you. You only need this if you're connecting another tool to your app by hand. What it is: an API key is a password-like credential that lets an app talk to Piezas. Each key is tied to a…
npx piezas doctor # human-readable report npx piezas doctor --json # machine-readable, for CI npx piezas doctor --strict # exit non-zero on warnings too doctor compares your project against the live platform contract and flags anything stale or off-spec. Run it before every deploy, and after any…
What you'll have at the end: a contact database with a sales pipeline and follow-up tasks, live on the web at your own link. You won't write any code — an AI assistant interviews you, writes a spec, designs it, and builds it on Piezas. Step 1 — Get a Piezas account Go to app.piezas.ai and sign up.…
Piezas.ai is a set of building blocks (APIs) that your AI coding agents can assemble together to create the backend for production-grade software. We have a team of senior engineers behind these building blocks, architecting, developing, reviewing, auditing, and testing these blocks one by one. To…
