Supabase development.
Ship your MVP faster.
Supabase gives you a production-ready Postgres database, auth, file storage, and real-time subscriptions out of the box. We use it for MVPs and SaaS products where you need a solid backend fast, without spending the first month standing up infrastructure.
Supabase for products that need a real backend, built fast
Supabase isn't Firebase with a SQL veneer, it's a proper Postgres backend with auth, storage, and real-time subscriptions. We use it where it genuinely accelerates the timeline.
SaaS MVPs
Full-featured MVPs with auth, database, file storage, and APIs, ready in weeks rather than months. Supabase eliminates the infrastructure setup that usually consumes the first sprint.
Real-Time Applications
Live dashboards, collaborative tools, and notification-driven apps. Supabase's real-time subscriptions broadcast database changes to connected clients instantly, no polling.
AI + Vector Search
Supabase's pgvector extension makes it a capable vector database. We build RAG pipelines and semantic search directly on Supabase, one less infrastructure component for smaller teams.
Mobile App Backends
Flutter and React Native apps backed by Supabase, auth, data, storage, and real-time in one service. We pair Supabase with mobile frontends for fast, maintainable full-stack products.
A real Postgres backend without the infrastructure setup
Supabase is not Firebase. It's Postgres, with everything you need to run a production backend wrapped around it. That distinction matters for long-term maintainability.
It's actually Postgres
Not a proprietary data store, real PostgreSQL. That means full SQL, complex joins, transactions, RLS policies, pg extensions, and the ability to migrate off Supabase to a self-hosted Postgres instance if you ever need to.
Row Level Security is powerful
Supabase's RLS policies enforce data access rules at the database level, users only see their own data, even through the auto-generated APIs. For multi-tenant applications, this is a significant security advantage.
Auth that covers the hard cases
Email/password, magic links, OAuth (Google, GitHub, etc.), SAML, MFA, Supabase Auth handles the cases that usually take two weeks to implement correctly. JWTs, session management, and refresh tokens are all handled.
Edge Functions for custom logic
When the auto-generated API isn't enough, Supabase Edge Functions let you write custom server-side logic in TypeScript, co-located with your data and auth, no separate backend needed.
What we pair with Supabase
Supabase as the backend core. Here's what we build around it for a complete product.

Supabase accelerates the early stage. It's not the right call for every project at every scale.
Supabase makes sense when
- You're building an MVP and speed to market is the priority
- Your data is genuinely relational and fits standard Postgres patterns
- You want real-time subscriptions and auth without building them yourself
Consider a custom backend when
- Your business logic doesn't fit the auto-generated API model
- You have strict compliance requirements Supabase's hosting can't meet
- You're already operating at a scale where a custom architecture pays off
Built by AI-native engineers, so your Supabase backend is ready for agents and LLM features
We design the API surface, auth, and event model so language-model features and AI agents can consume your Supabase backend safely later, rather than bolting them on after. It is how our own products, Tully AI and Mebag, were built.
Typed schemas, scoped tokens, and predictable errors so an AI agent can call your Supabase API without surprises.
Retrieval endpoints and event streams that feed a vector store without a nightly export job.
A managed Supabase layer in front of OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini with rate limits, caching, and fallbacks.

Common questions about Supabase development
Straight answers on stack fit, working in your codebase, cost, and how we start.
Supabase vs a custom backend, which should I choose?
Supabase for MVPs, early-stage SaaS products, and projects where speed to market is the priority. A custom backend when you have complex business logic that doesn't fit the Supabase model, strict compliance requirements, or are already operating at real scale. We'll give you an honest answer based on your specific situation.
Supabase vs Firebase, what's the difference?
Supabase uses PostgreSQL, a proper relational database with full SQL support. Firebase uses Firestore, a NoSQL document store. For most business applications with relational data (which is most of them), Supabase is the better long-term choice. Firebase is faster to get started but harder to query and migrate from.
Can you migrate an existing app to Supabase?
From another Postgres database, yes, data migration is straightforward. From Firebase or other non-SQL stores, it requires a data model redesign and ETL process. We assess the complexity before committing to a timeline.
What happens when we outgrow Supabase?
Since it's real Postgres, migrating to a self-hosted or managed Postgres instance is straightforward. We design Supabase projects with this in mind, keeping business logic in Edge Functions or a separate backend layer rather than locked into Supabase-specific patterns.
Hire Supabase Developers
Need Supabase engineers embedded in your team rather than a full project handoff? Our Supabase Developers join your existing workflow (your tools, your stand-ups, your roadmap) while we handle employment, payroll, and HR. Add one developer or a full team, scale up before a release and back down after, and keep everything they build.
