# Neon Postgres

> Neon is a complete set of cloud backend primitives built around Lakebase Postgres, for developers, startups, and agent platforms, from Databricks. Services include Lakebase Postgres, Managed Better Auth, Data API, Functions, Object Storage, and AI Gateway. Lakebase Postgres on Neon includes autoscaling, instant restore, and scale-to-zero, and works with any language, framework, or ORM that supports Postgres.

Neon docs are available as markdown. Append `.md` to any doc URL or set `Accept: text/markdown`. This is the primary index. Sections with many pages show key pages and link to full sub-indexes.
