The challenge

Northwind Labs builds a fintech dashboard for finance teams. Every new feature meant another week of setup: tables, endpoints, permissions, and the types to hold them together.

Why Tessera

The team moved its schema into Tessera and let it generate the database, the API, and the clients. Row-level rules replaced a hand-written permissions layer, and preview branches made every backend change reviewable.

Results

Backend setup dropped from three weeks to two days. About 6,000 lines of glue code were deleted, and the team now ships features three times faster.
