Story

Announced at Build 2026, Rayfin is an SDK and CLI that defines data models, business logic, auth, and access policies entirely in code, then deploys to Microsoft Fabric (The New Stack). The pitch is backends that are agent-authorable end to end. It pushes Microsoft's agent tooling past the IDE into deployable infrastructure, and it's the kind of code-defined surface that pairs naturally with the coding-agent harnesses everyone's hardening this week.
