About Supabase
We are Supabase, an open source platform that helps developers build backends with PostgreSQL at the core. Our goal is to provide a complete development platform for web, mobile, and AI applications, combining a managed database with the tools teams need to move quickly.
We position ourselves as an open source Firebase alternative built on Postgres, giving developers a familiar relational database foundation instead of a proprietary backend stack. Our platform brings together database services, authentication, instant APIs, edge functions, realtime capabilities, and other integrated features in one system.
We built Supabase for teams that want the speed of a backend-as-a-service without giving up control, portability, or open source tooling. By using enterprise-grade open source components, we let users start fast and scale with a stack that remains transparent and extensible.
Our product is designed to support a wide range of applications, from early-stage prototypes to production systems. Developers can use Supabase to create a backend in minutes, manage data with Postgres, and add features such as authentication and realtime synchronization without assembling separate services.
We are focused on making modern application development simpler while keeping the underlying infrastructure understandable. That means giving developers a dedicated Postgres database and a cohesive set of services that work together out of the box.
Our platform is built for builders who value SQL, open standards, and a developer experience that reduces the operational burden of running backend infrastructure.
