Is SupaHost real Supabase?

Yes, in the sense that matters for your code: every SupaHost project runs the same open-source components Supabase publishes, so supabase-js, the Flutter, Swift and Kotlin clients, @supabase/ssr and Supabase Studio work unchanged. SupaHost isn't Supabase Inc., though. It's an independent managed host, run by Volods LTD and not affiliated with Supabase, that operates the open-source stack on a VM dedicated to you.

The components

These are the versions in the current release (2026.11.02):

New releases are applied in your maintenance window (03:00-05:00 UTC) if automatic upgrades are on, or when you click Upgrade now. The Software updates card on the Instance page lists the running versions.

Same as Supabase

• The project API: /auth/v1, /rest/v1, /storage/v1, /realtime/v1, /functions/v1, with apikey and Authorization headers.
• Postgres with the Supabase roles (anon, authenticated, service_role), RLS, the auth and storage schemas, and the extensions shipped in the Supabase Postgres image, including pgvector, PostGIS, pg_net, pg_cron and pgmq.
• Auth with email/password, magic links, 19 OAuth providers, anonymous sign-ins and TOTP MFA.
• Realtime Broadcast, Presence and Postgres Changes.

// the only change from a Supabase Cloud project is the URL and key
const supabase = createClient('https://app-one.acme.supahost.space', process.env.SUPABASE_ANON_KEY!)

Different from Supabase Cloud

• Not available: connection pooler (Supavisor), read replicas, phone/SMS auth, image transformations, supabase functions deploy, the Management API, /graphql/v1, Studio's Logs and Reports pages, custom SMTP, and the new sb_publishable_/sb_secret_ keys (projects use the legacy anon and service_role keys).
• Direct Postgres is only on Business and Enterprise, through an SSH tunnel.
• Edge Functions are deployed from the dashboard or over MCP.
• Pricing is a flat price per instance, with no per-user, per-connection or per-invocation fees, and projects never pause.

FAQ

Is SupaHost affiliated with Supabase?

No. SupaHost is run by Volods LTD, a company registered in England and Wales, and isn't affiliated with Supabase Inc.

Can I move from Supabase Cloud and back?

Yes. The one-click import copies a Supabase Cloud project in, and the Backups tab exports a standard pg_dump and a .tar.gz of your Storage files whenever you want to leave.

Will Supabase docs and tutorials work?

Mostly, yes. Anything about client libraries, SQL, RLS, Auth flows or Realtime applies directly. Check Supabase features on SupaHost for the exceptions above.
