Supabase’s Unconventional Approach Fuels its $5 Billion Valuation

Supabase, the open-source database platform driving the ‘vibe coding revolution,’ has just reached a staggering $5 billion valuation despite defying conventional startup strategies. CEO Paul Copplestone prioritizes long-term vision over short-term gains by consistently rejecting lucrative enterprise contracts that don’t align with Supabase’s product focus. This approach, though challenging in the short term, has fueled its explosive growth and positioned it as a leader in the rapidly evolving world of database infrastructure.
