During the first year of Supabase we set ourselves a goal: build a managed service capable of running 1 million databases with performance, stability, and security as our three pillars. After a couple of years we were happy that we’d successfully built out infrastructure and a team capable of achieving that goal. We slowly started to phase out the “beta” messaging and set ourselves a more ambitious goal. We dreamed of building the backend for every application on the web. This required us to expand on the tooling we'd built around Postgres offering into products like Auth, Realtime, Vector and more. The promise of Supabase today is that you can spin up a complete backend in a weekend and scale it up to millions of users, all without leaving the Supabase dashboard. Supabase is, and always will be, free to start and fully open source. We have an extensive collection of client side libraries and SDKs for every developer ecosystem. Regardless of whether you're building for web, mobile, or data science you'll find that Supabase is a quick and painless way to store and access your data. Come and share with us something you’ve built with Supabase!

congratulations on making supabase generally available. scaling from a beta to a platform that supports such high-profile clients is no small feat. with your expanded toolset around postgres, what are some of the most unexpected use cases you've witnessed so far?
