Ship fast. Scale forever.
Supabase gives you the speed you love with the foundation you need. Spin up a backend in minutes. Get Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector search out of the box. Build with AI tools like Cursor or Claude Code that already speak fluent SQL.
Build your project in a weekend. Scale it to millions of users without switching platforms, rewriting queries, or learning the limits of a proprietary database.
Why developers choose Supabase over Convex
Supabase is built on standard Postgres with everything you need out of the box: auth, storage, edge functions, realtime, and vector search—all with zero lock-in. Use any ORM, connect with any tool, and build fast with AI coding assistants like Claude Code or Cursor. Your database, your data, your choice.
It's just Postgres
Familiar SQL, familiar model, proven platform. No proprietary query language. No artificial limits. Just standard SQL that works everywhere. Postgres powers the world's most demanding applications, and you get the same battle-tested database.
Scale to millions
Real Postgres means real scale. Start small and grow to millions of users on the same database. Postgres handles everything from startups to enterprise workloads with proven scalability. Your database grows with you, no migrations needed.
A powerful ecosystem
Connect with pgAdmin, Postico, DBeaver, or your favorite tool. Use any SQL client, ORM, or database tool. Tap into the most popular Postgres extensions, including: PostGIS for geospatial, pgvector for AI, and more. The entire Postgres ecosystem is at your fingertips.
A complete backend in the box
Supabase includes Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector search. Everything is fully integrated and ready to use. Stop stitching together services from different providers. Stop paying for tools that don't talk to each other. One platform, one bill, one dashboard.
Ultra flexible by design
Don't want to use our SDKs? Use any Postgres client. Don't need RLS? Don't use it. Want to use your own auth? Go ahead. Connect to external data sources with Foreign Data Wrappers. Supabase adapts to your workflow, not the other way around.
Ready to move fast with AI
Perfect for teams using Claude Code, Cursor, or other AI tools. Declare your schemas in code and deploy them to your project. Generate types on the fly.
Built-in ETL for analytics
Stream changes from Postgres to BigQuery, Iceberg, or other analytical destinations in real time. No third-party tools needed—just configure a publication and start replicating. Keep your app fast while unlocking powerful analytics.
Fair, predictable pricing
Supabase charges for what you use, not how your data syncs. No surprise bandwidth bills from real-time subscriptions. No per-function-call pricing that explodes with traffic. Postgres connection pooling means efficient resource usage at any scale. Know what you'll pay before you ship.
A complete backend platform with zero lock-in
Standard Postgres plus auth, storage, functions, and real-time. Use what you need, skip what you don't.
Database
