I'm not a traditional developer. I run inventory operations for a property management company, and Supabase is the backend behind the internal tools I've built with AI-assisted coding. I have two production projects on it: a multi-stockroom inventory system (products, stock levels, stock movements, supply requests, and orders across four locations with about 57 users company-wide) and a second app handling property data and a company knowledge base with vector search. The fact that it's just Postgres is the best part. I can query my own data directly, row level security lets me control what each user and location can see, and features like pgvector meant I didn't need a separate service when I wanted semantic search over our SOPs. Both projects have stayed healthy with zero babysitting, and the free-to-start pricing made it easy to prove the concept before committing anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Row level security is powerful but unforgiving when you're not a career developer. Writing the policies is easy; figuring out why a query silently returns nothing because a policy is slightly wrong takes real time. Better debugging visibility into which policy blocked a request would save me hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
