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.
side by side
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
when we're the right answer
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.
Tell us the database, the compliance bar, and the timeline. If Supabase is the right answer for you, we'll say so. If not, you'll know in twenty minutes.
