We got tired of rebuilding the same admin panel.
Rebase was born from a simple, recurring frustration: building internal tools and admin panels is a slow, repetitive, and thankless task. We believe developers should be focused on core product innovation, not reinventing the CRUD interface for the hundredth time.
From a Developer's Toolkit to a Global Platform.
Rebase started as an internal tool to launch a back-office in minutes, not weeks. Like many developers, our founders were tired of rebuilding the same admin interfaces for every new project. They wanted to focus on building great products, not spend weeks on CRUD operations, authentication, and form validation.
What began as a side project quickly gained traction in the open-source community. Developers from around the world started using Rebase to build everything from content management systems to complex internal tools for enterprises.
Rebase is the second time we have built this. The first was FireCMS — an open-source CMS for Firebase used in more than 10,000 projects, by teams at companies including Microsoft and IKEA. Rebase applies what those years taught us to a database you own outright: standard Postgres, running wherever you choose to put it.
Our Values
Developer First
Every decision we make starts with one question: "Does this make developers' lives easier?" We prioritize great DX, comprehensive docs, and powerful APIs.
Transparency
We're open-source and proud of it. Our code, our roadmap, and our decision-making are transparent. We believe in building trust through openness.
Community Driven
Our best features come from our community. We listen, we iterate, and we build what developers actually need, not what we think they need.
Rebase by the Numbers
