# Launch Postgres in Your Browser, Keep It On Neon

**[Neon](https://daily.dev/sources/neontech)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Instagres is a tool that spins up a fully functional Postgres database in your browser or terminal in under a second, no signup required. Built on Cloudflare Workers with React Router v7 and Drizzle ORM, it uses Neon's API for instant database provisioning. Databases are temporary by default (1-hour TTL), but users can transfer them to a free Neon account with one click via OAuth. Bot protection is handled through Cloudflare Turnstile and a built-in rate limiting API. The transfer process uses a Docker-based AWS Lambda function running pg_dump and pg_restore.
