Supabase raises $500M at $10.5B valuation
Supabase, the open-source Postgres development platform, announced a $500 million Series F funding round that values the company at $10.5 billion. The round was led by GIC and includes participation from existing investors, making it one of the largest funding deals in the developer tools space this year. The funding will accelerate Supabase's mission to become the leading platform for building agentic applications and AI-assisted development. The company has seen explosive growth driven by 'vibe coding' - the movement where developers and non-technical users turn AI-generated code into working applications. With this investment, Supabase aims to expand its infrastructure globally and enhance its agentic development capabilities, positioning itself as the go-to platform for developers building the next generation of AI-powered applications.
