~ fastcrud vs supabase

Supabase is a backend platform. FastCRUD is a data API for the database you can't replace.

Supabase is excellent if you're starting greenfield, want everything (database, auth, storage, edge functions, realtime) in one box, and are happy to run on their hosted PostgreSQL. For a lot of teams, that's the right answer. Use Supabase.

FastCRUD is not trying to be a backend platform. We do one thing: put an audit-ready REST and GraphQL API on top of the database you already have. SQL Server, Oracle, an existing PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB — whatever your ERP, billing, ledger, or EHR is running on. We exist because some databases are not moving, and the team running them still needs a modern API on top.

We're not trying to win on feature count. We're trying to be the right tool when migrating to a new database is off the table.

when supabase is the right answer

#reasons to pick Supabase instead

when we're the right answer

#why customers pick FastCRUD

their database is not moving

ERPs on SQL Server, ledgers on Oracle, EHRs with two decades of conventions baked in. The cost of migrating is higher than any platform's ARR.

they already have auth

Existing IdP (Okta, Entra, Auth0). We authenticate the access key, not the human — your auth system stays in charge.

audit-first deployment

Every call logged from day one. Exportable for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA. The compliance answer is built in, not assembled.

procurement-friendly

Invoice billing, custom MSA, BAA, DPA, and named CSM on Enterprise. The kind of contract a regulated buyer can sign.
