Supabase, a prominent player in agentic infrastructure and open-source Postgres development, has recently secured 0 million in funding, spearheaded by GIC, with significant participation from Alphabet’s independent growth fund CapitalG, IronArc, and SquarePeg. This latest investment follows a substantial 0 million Series F round just four months prior, underscoring the rapid acceleration of growth driven by AI coding tools and agents.
In conjunction with this funding announcement, Supabase revealed its acquisition of Turso, a platform designed to facilitate access to large volumes of databases tailored for agentic workloads. This strategic move aims to enhance Supabase’s product development focused on agent-driven databases, while also providing liquidity for employees—an initiative the founders deem essential for fostering an optimal environment for engineers.
Growth and Community Engagement
Supabase is currently experiencing remarkable growth, adding over 1 million users and 4 million databases each month, with a staggering 70% of these new databases being created by agents or AI-driven tools. This surge follows a reported 600% year-over-year increase in databases, highlighting the significant role that agents play in deploying new databases on the platform.
The emergence of AI coding tools such as Claude Code and Codex is broadening the landscape of software development, enabling a wider array of individuals to engage in building applications. Supabase has witnessed successive growth waves as AI app builders democratize software creation, followed by a notable acceleration as coding agents develop increasingly sophisticated applications. The company aspires to be the primary backend support platform for developers and agents alike.
Derek Zanutto, general partner at CapitalG, remarked, “Supabase has established itself as the critical open infrastructure layer powering the AI revolution. We’re proud to back one of the fastest-growing private database companies on the planet as Paul and the team empower millions of developers and agents to build at unprecedented speed.”
Strategic Acquisition of Turso
As the demand for agentic deployments escalates, so does the necessity for a substantial number of databases. The ability for an agent to create a database instantly, without the burden of provisioning dedicated machines for each instance, is becoming increasingly vital. This evolving landscape is precisely why Supabase has acquired Turso, which boasts a successful architecture capable of providing databases at a low cost. Turso’s architecture supports the on-demand provisioning of per-agent databases in both public cloud environments and BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) setups, catering to clients such as Superhuman, Sauna.ai, CTO.new, and Mastra.
Both Supabase and Turso share a commitment to open-source principles, a focus on enhancing developer experience, and a mutual understanding of how infrastructure must evolve to support the future of agentic AI. The Turso platform will continue its operations, seamlessly integrating into the broader Supabase ecosystem.
Glauber Costa, founder of Turso, who will take on the role of Head of Agentic Services at Supabase, expressed his enthusiasm: “From the start of our journey, I’ve had a goal to serve upwards of a billion databases to our customers. Being a part of Supabase, with its gargantuan developer success and ever-growing partner ecosystem, will bring this goal closer.”
Supabase stands at the forefront of agentic infrastructure, with over 13 million developers leveraging its platform to build and scale applications. Established in 2020, Supabase offers a comprehensive backend solution, including a Postgres database, authentication, storage, edge functions, real-time subscriptions, and vector search, complemented by a marketplace of over 100 integrated partner tools.
