Turso provides a SQLite-based database architecture designed for applications that need many small, isolated databases rather than one shared store. Developers can create a separate database for each user, AI agent, or tenant, supporting privacy, data boundaries, and scalable software design. Built on SQLite and its open-source libSQL community, Turso offers a lightweight engine that runs locally and can scale to cloud infrastructure.

Turso Cloud is the managed service, with database provisioning, replication, observability, bring-your-own-cloud deployment, and per-database encryption. Embedded replication keeps a database synchronized between a device and the cloud, enabling local-first and offline-capable applications. The platform also supports customer-held encryption keys and data residency controls, and lists SOC 2 Type II alongside GDPR- and HIPAA-ready capabilities.

Turso provides SQLite-compatible tools and SDKs for TypeScript, Python, Rust, and Go. Its products serve use cases including AI agents, multi-tenant platforms, and user-built applications. Developers can start with the open-source offering or Turso Cloud’s free tier, which includes 100 databases, 500 million row reads, and 10 million row writes per month.
