Own it, don’t rent it
Most SaaS runs on a backend you rent and can’t leave. jerrycan builds you a real backend that’s yours — run it anywhere, scale it yourself, never get stuck.
renting it
Locked in someone else's box
Your app lives on their platform, on their pricing. When they change the rules — or the bill — you're stuck.
owning it
Your code. Run it anywhere.
The backend is yours — code and data. Take it to any host, scale it on your terms, and never get stuck again.
Questions
Do I really own the backend?
Yes. The code and the data are yours — your IP. Run it anywhere, take it with you, never get locked in.
Do I need to know how to build a backend?
No. Your AI builds it for you — you just review and ship.
What do I actually get?
The real backend behind your SaaS: it stores your users and data, handles logins, goes live on the internet — and it’s yours to keep.
Will it scale when my SaaS grows?
Yes — it’s a real, fast backend, so it grows from your first user to millions, on your terms.
Is it free and open source?
Yes.
