Amplication is the enterprise-grade platform for building and managing standardized backends at scale. We transform how organizations approach software development through:

Launch production-ready backends in minutes, not months Support for any tech stack, programming language, or existing backend. Enforce security policies across all resources

Technology Agnostic By Design

Whether you're working with Java, Python, Go, .NET, Node.js, or any other programming language, Amplication adapts to your technology choices. Our platform's flexible architecture lets you:

Generate code in your preferred programming language through customizable blueprints and plugins Integrate with existing codebases and legacy systems while maintaining standardization

The Complete Development Lifecycle

Amplication enables a familiar Day Zero / Day One / Day Two approach to building and managing backend services — a methodology widely adopted by platform engineering and DevOps teams for establishing, implementing, and maintaining software at scale.

Define and govern the foundational elements of your software architecture through blueprints, templates, and catalog properties before writing code. Transform resource development from months to minutes by generating production-ready backends with standardized foundations and AI-assisted development. Proactively manage many resources with precision through comprehensive visibility, dependency mapping, and automated updates across your entire software ecosystem.

Built for Enterprise Scale

Generate resources pre-configured for AWS, Azure, or GCP with built-in cloud best practices using plugins. Extend through a variety of available public plugins and integrate with existing git providers. Support for both opinionated and technology-agnostic code generation engines to match your standards. Enhance productivity with Jovu AI copilot for code generation and optimization.
