Bring the product forward.
The difference is how much of the foundation your team needs to create and connect before it can serve the business.
| What the product needs | AI + a self-assembled stackYour team assembles the foundation | AI + Arc FusionYour team builds on existing services |
|---|---|---|
| Identity & permissions | Select identity services, implement product access rules, and connect account context. | Use connected identity, users, and permissions APIs; configure access for your product. |
| Business workflows | Build or integrate APIs for subscriptions, agreements, invoices, and transactions. | Start with the ArcDynamic business API suite and extend your own workflows. |
| Data, files & events | Connect storage, synchronization, event handling, and the records that tie them together. | Use the connected data, sync, files, CDN, and pub/sub service foundation. |
| Enterprise systems | Design integrations, credential handling, data mapping, and operational ownership. | Connect systems through the managed API and data foundation; implement the required mappings and adapters. |
| Deployment & growth | Choose a topology, provision resources, and coordinate upgrades across providers. | Start with an isolated managed deployment and plan capacity or regional changes around your workload. |
| Production responsibility | Assign support, availability targets, recovery, and ongoing platform maintenance. | Agree platform support and applicable SLA terms; keep ownership of your application logic and integration testing. |
| Where your effort goes | Product development plus the foundation work you choose to own. | Product experience, differentiated logic, enterprise connections, and configuration. |
A FOUNDATION WITH A PRODUCTION HISTORY
Give AI a stronger starting point.
Use established service code and a managed operating environment underneath the application your team creates.
The infrastructure is connected.
Compute, database clustering, files, delivery, and messaging are managed as an isolated deployment. Capacity can evolve with your application.
Compare infrastructure optionsAvailability has an owner.
Platform support, availability targets, and any SLA commitments follow your subscription and agreement. Define the production requirements with the team before launch.
Discuss availability & supportKEEP THE TOOLS YOU BUILD WITH
Your builder creates the app.
Arc supplies the service layer.
Connect through supported API integrations. Your chosen tool still determines how the application is built and hosted.
Claude Code & coding agents
Use your agent to write application code against Arc’s documented APIs. Your project supplies the service contracts, access credentials, and product requirements.
Explore the Arc developer guideLovable, Sites & visual builders
Connect Arc to apps created in Lovable, Sites, or another builder through a supported API or server integration. Plan authentication, server-side secret handling, and deployment as part of the integration.
Lovable API integration optionsSupabase & Firebase
Both can support production applications. Arc’s value is the broader connected business API suite and managed deployment. Existing backends can remain part of your architecture, with integrations scoped to your needs.
TypeScript & browser-local state
Keep the frontend and language you prefer. Use browser storage for local interface state, and server-side APIs for shared business records, cross-device workflows, and permission checks.

Engineering budget difference
Foundation work only. Your application’s custom features, testing, migration, and third-party connector development still need a budget. Hours are engineering effort, not elapsed delivery time; the result uses only the estimates you enter.
