A Simple Data Storage API

A lightweight API for hands-off approach
to storing data without managing a backend.

No logins. No accounts. Like LocalStorage but persistent, secure, and works across devices. Perfect for indie devs, static pages, prototypes, hobby apps.

πŸš€ No Logins. No accounts.

No account to create. No sign-ups. Store data securely with on-the-fly generated isolated API keys. Find out more.

🌐 Serverless Database

Support all your front-end's persistence needs without a backend. No databases to create and maintain.

⚑ No Surprise Charges

You get unlimited egress, users, and bandwidth. No surprise fees like compute charges or per-byte data transfer costs.

πŸ”’ Secure

Each project is protected by an isolated API Key, built-in RLS, and full end-to-end encryption.

πŸ’» No vendor lock-in

Your users, your apps - your data. All managed data can be backed up, exported, and imported.

πŸ”₯ Replace localStorage

Data stored with prefs.us is persistent, survives device data wipes, and handles device switching.

No Backend Database.

Create logins, track sign ups, store your user's preferences - all with no databases to manage, no backend to maintain. Sometimes we just need a quick way to persist some data without getting into creating a dedicated data store.

Data storage for static pages

logo
Complete hands-off data persistance for your static pages. Store your users choices, preferences, configuration, or state without a need for a backend.

Better Web Storage API Alternative

LocalStorage or SessionStorage in the Browser:
  1. Does not survive data wipe or device reset
  2. Is not secure: data stored in plain text.
  3. Limited to 5 MB of storage.
  4. No device switching
Prefs.us fixes that. If you rely on local storage to preserve user data - but are concerned about the data wipe, data restoration, or supporting multiple devices then prefs.us may be for you.

”it's like LocalStorage - but better! My static pages now have a database backend!”

-- said no one on Reddit ever
(but it's still true)

β€œPerfect for my side projects. I didn't want to run a database just to store a few settings.”

Mae Dapnaim Bot Developer

β€œI use it for prototypes, demos, and hackathons. Simple API and super reliable.”

Luke Inghud Startup Builder

β€œSetting up a database every time I need some storage is so redundant.”

Store key - value pairs (map model)

  .key("settings").write(theme);
  
  .key("settings").read( (response) => { 
      theme = response.value; 
    });
  
  


Store lists (collection model)

  .list("signups").add(email);
  
  .list("signups").read( (response) => { 
      emails = response.values; 
    });
  
  


setItem , getItem (localStorage model)

  .setItem("user", data);
  
  .getItem("user", (response)=>{ 
      data = response.value; 
    });
  
  


Simple Object Storage

  .bucket("name")
      .key("name")
          .put_object(data);
  
  .bucket("name")
      .key("name")
          .get_object( (response) => {
               obj = response.value;
            });
  


Serialization

  .key("myObj")
    .write(JSON.stringify(obj));
  
  .key("myObj")
    .read( (response) => {
      obj = JSON.parse(response.value);
    });
  

Dashboard

A simple dashboard helps you manage your API keys. You can review stored data, monitor data ingress and egress, and other metrics.
