Our Partnership with Supabase

We're thrilled to announce our continued partnership with Supabase, the developer-first open-source platform that's seeking to redefine backend development. We’ve been honored to work with Supabase’s founders Paul Copplestone and Ant Wilson since we led their seed and Series A rounds. Today, as Supabase announces its $200M Series D, we celebrate this significant milestone and our ongoing collaboration.

Supabase has rapidly become an essential tool for over 1.8 million developers worldwide, managing more than 3.5 million databases. Originally seen as the open-source alternative to Firebase, it has grown into a comprehensive backend platform offering authentication, file storage, edge functions, real-time updates, and scalable Postgres, built with speed and developer control in mind.

Supabase’s growth underscores its pivotal role in the developer ecosystem, especially for AI-native startups and enterprises. Fast-moving companies like Cursor, Bolt, Lovable, and Vercel’s v0, as well as now >50% of YCombinator batch startups rely on Supabase for agile and reliable infrastructure. Established organizations such as PwC, McDonald's, 1Password, and more leverage its flexibility and compliance-friendly architecture for critical workloads.

In the text-to-build world, Supabase is a crucial one-stop backend for building an AI app. Front end interfaces constantly evolve, and Supabase’s backend foundation is designed to support all of them.

Now, the same backend a builder experiments on can now be scaled at incredible speeds. Supabase’s integrated Postgres database, authentication, and instant APIs ensure functionality and scalability for developers.

At Coatue, we believe that Supabase is helping to drive the ecosystem of AI and developer innovation forward. We congratulate the Supabase team on this milestone and look forward to supporting their next chapter of growth and innovation.
