Supabase gives you the building blocks, but production means more than enabling features in a dashboard. RLS policies that enforce your actual access model, realtime channels that hold under concurrent load, edge functions that handle failure gracefully. That’s implementation work, not configuration. Curotec has built Supabase backends where the defaults weren’t enough and the documentation stopped short.
Supabase Development Without the Vendor Lock-In
Our engineers build Supabase backends with auth, realtime, and auto-generated APIs — all on Postgres you can move or self-host anytime.

When your backend is the bottleneck
Most teams don’t need a custom backend — they need auth, storage, realtime, and APIs that work without maintaining the infrastructure underneath. Supabase gives you that on real PostgreSQL, but configuring Row Level Security, wiring realtime subscriptions, and deploying edge functions for production traffic takes more than the quickstart guide. Curotec builds Supabase backends that hold up after launch.
Our capabilities include:
- Authentication with social login and MFA
- Row Level Security policy configuration
- Realtime subscriptions for live application state
- Edge function development with Deno
- File storage with access policies and CDN delivery
- Firebase-to-Supabase migration
Who we support
Supabase replaces different parts of your stack depending on what you’ve outgrown: a proprietary backend, a custom auth system, or an infrastructure layer your team shouldn’t be maintaining. Curotec works with teams ready to move to open-source infrastructure without rebuilding from scratch.
SaaS Teams Migrating Off Firebase
You hit Firebase's limits on relational queries, pricing, or data portability and need a backend that runs on real Postgres. We migrate your auth, storage, and database to Supabase while preserving your existing application logic.

The stack behind our Supabase implementations
Supabase Platform Services
We configure the core Supabase services that replace your custom auth, storage, realtime, and compute layers.
- Supabase Auth – User management service supporting social login, magic links, MFA, and JWT-based session handling out of the box
- Supabase Realtime – WebSocket-based service that broadcasts database changes, presence state, and custom messages to connected clients
- Supabase Storage – File storage service with resumable uploads, image transformations, and access policies tied to Row Level Security
- Supabase Edge Functions – Globally distributed TypeScript functions running on Deno for webhooks, integrations, and custom server logic
- Supabase Vector – PostgreSQL-native vector embeddings for semantic search, RAG pipelines, and AI-powered application features
- Supabase CLI – Local development toolchain for managing migrations, generating types, running edge functions, and syncing environments
Framework Integration
Your frontend framework connects to Supabase through client libraries that handle auth state, realtime subscriptions, and typed queries.
- supabase-js – Official JavaScript client for querying data, managing auth sessions, and subscribing to realtime channels from any JS environment
- React / Next.js – Server-side rendering and static generation with Supabase auth helpers, middleware, and server component data fetching
- React Native – Mobile client integration with Supabase auth, offline-first patterns, and secure token storage for iOS and Android

- Supabase Studio – Built-in table editor and SQL runner for schema design, data inspection, and RLS policy management through the dashboard
Auth & Security Configuration
Auth configuration goes beyond enabling providers — RLS policies, token handling, and session logic must match your access model.
- OAuth Providers – Social login configuration for Google, Apple, GitHub, Microsoft, and custom SAML/SSO providers with redirect handling
- JWT & Session Management – Token refresh flows, session persistence, and custom claims that carry role and permission data across requests
- Multi-Factor Authentication – TOTP-based second factor enrollment with recovery codes and enforcement rules per user role or access level

FAQs about our Supabase services
Can you migrate our app from Firebase to Supabase?
Yes. We move auth users, database records, and storage files without losing sessions or breaking existing client code. Most migrations complete in two to four weeks depending on data complexity.
Do you work with self-hosted Supabase?
We do. Some teams need self-hosting for compliance, data residency, or cost control. We deploy and configure self-hosted instances on your infrastructure with the same feature set as the managed platform.
How do you handle Row Level Security?
We write RLS policies that map to your actual access model — role-based, ownership-based, or custom logic. Then we test them with pgTAP so no query path bypasses your permission rules.
Can Supabase handle our scale?
Supabase runs on dedicated Postgres instances, not shared infrastructure. We configure connection pooling, indexing, and read replicas based on your traffic patterns so the database holds under production load.
How do your engineers integrate with our team?
They join your existing workflows — same repos, same standups, same deployment pipeline. Most engineers contribute production code in the first week without onboarding overhead.
What if we outgrow Supabase later?
Your data lives in standard Postgres. If you ever need to move, there’s no proprietary format or export process — you take your database, your schema, and your RLS policies with you.
