This week in @convex.
An open-source school portal, cloud computers for agents, per-customer AI costs, cricket scoring, a rebuilt AI app, multiplayer rhythm gaming and agentic work synced across desktop and mobile.

A little birdie told me founders are getting tired of poker nights and dinners.
November 19 in SF. Tune in below:

This week in @convex components
Six new components landed: email through @Cloudflare, iMessage and @WhatsApp messaging with @PhotonHQ, shared OAuth for all your apps, @triggerdotdev tasks and @X data retrieval

We just published a security advisory that affects the stream and paginator helpers from convex-helpers.
We recommend that all affected users update to convex-helpers@0.1.127 (or newer) to get the fix. We also applied a best-effort mitigation to Convex cloud deployments.

Wake up agents, there's a new @e2b @convex sandbox component.
A tableless Convex component that provides a V8-compatible E2B client for managing persistent cloud sandboxes inside Convex actions.

Your @Convex agents can now run code on a real Linux machine.
@boxd_sh microVMs are a Convex component.
Create, fork, and control isolated machines from your backend. Machine state and every command land in reactive Convex tables. No polling.

Sandboxes are coming to @convex soon.
Every team building agentic systems on us eventually needs to run dynamic code somewhere. They're constantly switching between a couple of providers. We want to help with something built in.
Also related: demand for dynamically generated Convex functions—running just-in-time generated code without spinning up a whole Linux environment.
Both are related but distinct problems.
Sandboxes are the current answer to "I need to run code I didn't write at build time." Dynamically generated Convex functions are the more direct answer: generate a function just in time, run it on the platform, and skip the Linux box entirely.

want faster queries and mutations? @convex runtime v2 is looking 🔥
quicker systems & lower customer bills coming soon
and this is before we even get rust server functions involved...

Our friends at @convex are changing the way back ends are built.
With databases that are reactive out of the box, mutations that are written in TypeScript, and a model that agents love building with, it's no surprise their growth is taking off:
ALT Graph shows significant growth for "convex" from near zero in 2025 to around 1.6 million, indicating rapid expansion.

Your @Convex agents can now run code.
Daytona sandboxes are a Convex component. Isolated cloud machines for agent code, and every command lands in a reactive Convex table. Status updates live in your UI. No polling.

When @convex launched European regions, the Convex Pro plan's included usage didn't apply to EU deployments because of some technical complications. We weren't proud of that.
Thanks for your patience, folks. As of today, it's fixed: ship.convex.dev/requests/js7…
We'll support included resources in the upcoming Australia/Canada regions too!

Wooo! I've been asking for this internally at @convex for a while and now its finally available!
You can call AI models from a Convex action without having to sign up for @OpenAI, @AnthropicAI, @OpenRouter or whatever, no managing API keys, it just works :)

The Convex AI Gateway is now live. Call any major model and answers stream to your users live. No wrapper to build. No token markup. No API key to manage. convex.dev/ai-gateway

Add Long-term memory to any @Convex app or Convex agent in one line, backed by EverOS Cloud from @evermind with the new EverOS component.

No @convex is NOT "just a Postgress wrapper".

To prove it I thought it would be fun if we tried to build a database with Convex's properties from scratch and see where we get to.

@convex 1.46.0 dropped a few days ago, theres:
- a new `--dry-run` flag for large table schema changes
- new `.optional()` validator helper
