Product Updates - Volume 22
Convex is hiring!
Our platform has grown a ton and we want to make sure that our team scales appropriately. We have a lot planned for the next year, so if you want to be a part of a truly dedicated team, check out our values here and apply here.
Platform APIs now available
We had a lot of teams, especially those working on AI app builders, ask for direct access to the provisioning APIs. We just launched the Platform APIs for you to provision, manage, and push code to deployments. This is compatible for developers that want to manage their own team, as well as applications that will manage deployments for other teams by requesting credentials through OAuth.
WorkOS AuthKit support
Convex is now compatible with WorkOS AuthKit as an auth provider in addition to the existing offerings of Convex Auth, Clerk, etc. The kind folks at WorkOS even developed template repositories (Vite, NextJS) for you to get started.
Read the docs to setup WorkOS AuthKit
AI Agents Docs
Ian released the Agents component recently, which provides you core building blocks to construct AI Agents in your Convex apps. We just put out some docs on how to get started with the component, which you can check out below.

Index backfill progress & revamped UI
The Convex dashboard’s Index UI got a glow up - including a progress bar indicating the status of backfills for new indexes. This will probably be relevant to you if you have a lot of data.
p.s. We’re shipping asynchronous backfills soon so you can continue to push code and develop while your indexes are backfilling.
