    TL;DR

    Supabase is a backend-as-a-service platform. It provides the database, user authentication, and file storage that most apps need, ready to plug in. Businesses use it so an app can remember data, sign users in, and store files without building that infrastructure from scratch.

    What Supabase is

    Supabase is a backend platform - the part of an app you don't see but can't do without. It gives you a database to store information, a login system so users can have accounts, and storage for files. Instead of building all of that yourself, you connect Supabase and your app gets a memory and a front door for users.

    Why businesses use it

    • Store and retrieve real data - customers, orders, bookings - in a proper database.
    • Add user accounts and logins without building an auth system by hand.
    • Keep uploaded files and images in one managed place.
    • Give an AI-built app the backend it needs to be more than a static page.

    How it fits with other tools

    Supabase is the data layer that sits behind an app you build with an agent like Claude Code and deploy on Vercel. Agents work well with it because it's a common, well-documented choice. The club teaches how to wire a build to a real database so it can actually run a business process.

    Where the club fits

    The Business Builders Club training shows you how to connect a build to Supabase so your app can store data and sign in users - the difference between a demo and a working tool.
