Supabase Raises $500M Series F at $10.5B as Vibe Coding Drives a Database Explosion

Open-source backend platform Supabase raised a $500 million Series F at a $10.5 billion valuation led by GIC, doubling its value in eight months. The growth is being driven by AI coding tools -- databases deployed are up 600% year-over-year, with Claude Code now its single largest source of new instances and AI agents spinning up the majority of them.

Supabase is the purest infrastructure proxy for the vibe-coding thesis: when agents write the app, something has to host the backend, and 600% growth with Claude Code as the top referrer is that demand made visible. This is the picks-and-shovels trade for AI-generated software, and it's compounding faster than the apps themselves. The risk is concentration -- if a few coding agents drive most signups, their roadmap changes are your revenue risk. But owning the default backend of the agent era is exactly where I'd want to be.

Supabase closed a $500 million Series F at a $10.5 billion valuation on June 4, led by GIC with participation from Accel, Y Combinator, Craft, Felicis, Peak XV and Coatue. Stripe increased its investment and Salesforce Ventures joined as a new backer. The round doubles the six-year-old company's valuation in just eight months.

The driver is unmistakably AI. Supabase says databases deployed on its platform are up 600% year-over-year, that Claude Code is now its single largest source of new instances, and that AI agents are spinning up the majority of new databases. The company now counts nearly 10 million developers, roughly double its base eight months ago -- a direct read on how much real backend infrastructure the vibe-coding boom is generating.

“The round doubles the six-year-old company's valuation in just eight months.”

Alongside the raise, Supabase launched Multigres, a horizontally sharded, multi-region scaling layer in preview meant to take Postgres deployments to hyperscaler-grade workloads. The pitch is that as AI-written apps proliferate, the companies providing their backends inherit durable, compounding demand.
