Case Study: Emergent Labs scales vibe-coding app development with MongoDB Atlas

Emergent Labs powers 50,000+ app deployments in four months with MongoDB Atlas

Emergent Labs, a company providing an AI-powered "vibe-coding" platform, needed a highly flexible and scalable database to support its AI agents in building and iterating on applications without the bottlenecks caused by rigid schema migrations. After initial challenges with PostgreSQL, they turned to MongoDB and its product MongoDB Atlas for a solution that could handle dynamic, agent-driven development.

By implementing MongoDB Atlas, Emergent Labs provided its AI agents with a document-based database that allows for dynamic schema changes without migrations, enabling faster iteration and fewer errors. The results were significant: in just four months, nearly 2 million applications were built on their platform, with over 50,000 successfully deployed across 180 countries, all reliably scaled and managed by MongoDB.
