Supabase runs $0 to $599/mo across 4 plans, with usage billed on top. Free is $0, Pro starts at $25/mo, Team starts at $599/mo, and Enterprise is custom. The "from" prices matter because usage overages stack on the base: egress runs $0.09/GB past the included amount and extra monthly active users cost $0.00325 each. Pro ships with a Spend Cap on by default, a $10/mo cost-control feature that blocks overage billing until you switch it off, which is the main guard against a surprise bill.
At $25/mo to start, Supabase sits 127% above the $11/mo median across 20 cloud hosting tools we track.
The base fee is the floor, not the bill. On paid plans Supabase meters usage on nearly every axis, and turning off the Spend Cap opens the door to overages. Here is what tends to push the number past $25 or $599.
Independent analysis · Supabase
Supabase runs from a $0 Free plan to a $25/mo Pro plan and a $599/mo Team plan, with Enterprise custom. The Free tier is genuinely usable, with 50,000 monthly active users, but it pauses inactive projects and caps you at 2. The jump to Team at $599/mo is steep and buys compliance and SLAs, not raw capacity. The real number on any paid plan is base plus usage, since Supabase meters egress, storage, MAU, and compute on top of the flat fee.
Users regularly flag the jump from free to paid as a cliff for small side projects, and the compute and overage math is hard to predict before you run it.

The Free plan is great for prototyping, and Pro at $25/mo suits growing startups that value speed over raw infrastructure cost, provided they keep the Spend Cap on. Teams that need SOC 2 will pay $599/mo for the Team plan. If you would rather run a plain, lower-cost virtual private server, consider DigitalOcean starting at $4/mo.
