Secure. Fast. Encrypted Data Tables API.
Irongist is a developer-first backend platform that lets you create secure encrypted database tables in minutes, then interact with them instantly using a powerful API. Perfect for rapid prototyping, MVPs, and multi-project agencies.
How Irongist Works
Three simple steps to a fully encrypted, production-ready API
Create a Table
Use our dashboard to define your database table structure. Name your table and start adding columns.
Define Columns & Types
Choose from text, number, date, timestamp, or email column types. Each type is automatically validated and normalized before encryption.
Get Your API Key
Instantly receive a unique API endpoint and key. Start making insert, select, update, and delete requests immediately.
// Example API request - Insert a record
POST /api/your-key-id/insert
X-API-KEY: your_api_key
{
"name": "Acme Corp",
"email": "contact@acme.com",
"status": "active"
}
Built for developers who move fast
Create databases in your dashboard, define your schema, and instantly use them via API. No infrastructure to manage, no complex configuration.
🔐 Encrypted by default
All stored data is encrypted at rest using strong encryption algorithms. Data is automatically decrypted only when requested via API, ensuring your sensitive information stays protected.
⚡ Instant API access
No setup, no deployment, no waiting. Your API is ready the moment you create your table. Start building your application immediately.
🧠 Powerful query engine
Supports WHERE conditions (eq, neq, gt, lt, like, in, between), ORDER BY (on system fields), pagination (limit/offset), and complex AND/OR nesting.
🧱 Dashboard-driven schema
Create tables and define columns directly from the dashboard. No SQL knowledge required. Just point, click, and configure.
📡 Full CRUD support
Insert, select, update, and delete records using simple HTTP requests. Built-in safety features prevent accidental mass updates or deletions.
🔑 Secure API keys
Each user gets a unique API key to securely access their data. Rotate keys anytime from your dashboard.
