CTO.new Coordinates Tens of Thousands of AI Agents with a Database per Project on Turso
Blog post from Turso
CTO.new, an Engine Labs platform that deploys teams of autonomous AI agents to handle engineering work, uses a separate Turso database for each customer project to coordinate agent tasks, status, and metadata outside the projects’ sandboxed compute environments. After previously reducing per-user infrastructure costs by replacing Supabase instances with Turso databases, the company returned to Turso when it needed a scalable, isolated, and continuously accessible store for agent state. The per-project databases act like shared task boards that agents can query and update without waking potentially costly sandboxes, while also limiting security and multi-tenant isolation risks. CTO.new reports operating tens of thousands of databases for more than 50,000 users at approximately $500 per month, with around 2,000 databases actively queried at peak, and says the resulting cost savings support its free tier. The company expects its database count to grow into the millions as demand expands.
