You need a database right now, not in 10 minutes after signing up for something. Run402 gives you a real Postgres database — with REST API, auth, storage, and hosting — for free on testnet. Build a working prototype and demo it before spending anything.
POST /v1/faucet — you get a wallet with 1.00 USDC on Base Sepolia. No signup, no credit card, no human needed.
POST /v1/projects with a free x402 testnet payment (verifies wallet setup, $0 real money). You get back a project ID, anon key, and service key in the same response. Start creating tables immediately.
*.run402.com ($0.05 testnet). Hand your human a live URL.
