Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

jsonone is a Backend-as-a-Service platform for teams building production applications, particularly across Africa. Its core offering combines managed MongoDB, JWT-based authentication, multi-tenant workspaces, documented APIs, file and object storage, custom domains, and tenant-specific CORS controls. Teams can use jsonone’s managed database or connect an existing MongoDB database, making it a fit for API-first products that need organization memberships and tenant separation.

The published plans show a paid model starting at 29. Starter includes multi-user memberships, audit logs, a managed database, and documented APIs. Professional lists custom domains, multi-user memberships, audit logs, and priority support. Enterprise includes unlimited workspaces, projects, apps, and members, along with dedicated infrastructure and compliance and scale options. Extensions and infrastructure options are available separately, while no free plan is offered.

jsonone’s ecosystem is centered on APIs and document data. OpenAPI 3.1 specifications support documented API delivery, while integrations include MongoDB, M-Pesa via Daraja, HashiCorp Vault, Oracle Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Amazon Web Services. Signed URLs support file and object storage, and optional modules cover CRM, finance, payroll, banking, and other business needs. Choose jsonone when multi-tenant MongoDB applications, API documentation, and workspace-level controls are priorities. Teams seeking a free entry tier or a broader backend platform beyond its API-focused scope should consider an alternative.
