# Introduction to Prisma Next (/docs/next)

Location: Introduction to Prisma Next

Prisma Next is a ground-up rebuild of Prisma ORM, covering the runtime, query APIs, migration flow, and project setup.

> [!NOTE]
> Prisma Next is in Early Access
> 
> Prisma Next is the next major version of Prisma ORM, available now in Early Access. It’s the cutting-edge version of Prisma ORM and will become the future of Prisma, so we’d love for you to try it, explore what’s new, and [share your feedback in Discord](https://pris.ly/discord).
> 
> If you want to stay on the current generally available version of Prisma ORM, you can continue with [Prisma 7](/getting-started).

Use Prisma Next when you want to try the new developer experience before it becomes the default Prisma ORM path.
