Supabase
Open-source Firebase alternative with Postgres, auth, and AI
Expert verdict
Ship
3-0The Panel's Take
Supabase provides a Postgres database, authentication, storage, edge functions, and vector embeddings out of the box. The AI features include pgvector for RAG, AI SQL editor, and auto-generated APIs. Popular with indie hackers and startups.
The reviews
“Auth, database, storage, edge functions, and vector search in one platform. For side projects and MVPs, Supabase eliminates the need for 5 different services.”
“The free tier is one of the most generous in the industry. The AI SQL editor is surprisingly good for non-SQL developers. Only concern: vendor lock-in on their specific Postgres extensions.”
“Supabase proves that open-source alternatives can match and exceed proprietary platforms. They're building Firebase, but better, and you can self-host if you want.”
