Long-running, serverless Node.js HTTP functions deployed onto your Neon branch, with DATABASE_URL injected automatically and compute that runs next to your data. Use when a user wants to host an API, an AI agent with long streaming responses, a WebSocket or server-sent-events (SSE) server, a webhook handler, a Discord bot, or any request/response workload that risks timing out on short, lambda-style serverless functions — and wants it to branch with their database. Triggers include "serverless function", "deploy an API", "long-running function", "streaming agent", "SSE server", "WebSocket server", "webhook handler", "run code next to my database", "function that won't time out", "Neon Functions", and "Neon Compute".

Guides and best practices for working with Neon Serverless Postgres. Covers getting started, local development with Neon, choosing a connection method, Neon features, authentication (@neondatabase/auth), PostgREST-style data API (@neondatabase/neon-js), Neon CLI, and Neon's Platform API/SDKs. Use for any Neon-related questions.

S3-compatible object storage that branches with your Neon project, so files and the database stay in sync across every branch. Use when a user wants object storage, a bucket, blob/file storage, or somewhere to put uploads, images, documents, avatars, or user-generated files for their app or agent — especially when they already use (or are setting up) Neon Postgres and don't want to add a separate storage provider like AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, or Supabase Storage. Triggers include "object storage", "bucket", "blob storage", "file storage", "store uploads/images/files", "S3-compatible storage", "presigned URL", "where do I put files", "Neon Object Storage", "Neon Storage", and "storage that branches with my database".

Overview of the Neon platform for apps and agents, spanning Postgres, Auth, Data API, and the new services: Object Storage, Compute Functions, and AI Gateway. Use whenever "Neon" is mentioned for an overview of how to work with Neon and how to get started. Otherwise, the individual capabilities are the triggers: "object storage" or "S3-compatible storage", "serverless functions", "background jobs", or "run code near my database", "AI gateway", "LLM proxy", "model routing", or "call an LLM" → AI Gateway; "database", "Postgres", or "authentication" → Postgres and Auth.
