What this page does not answer

We hold Supabase’s repository facts and nothing checked for Neon: no commit history, no licence, no release and no price. One column of facts is not a comparison, so this page names no winner and states no difference between the two. Tools get a full page in the order people search for them, and this one changes on the next build after that happens.

Questions people ask

Are Neon and Supabase still maintained?
Neon has no repository we track. Supabase committed to supabase/supabase (master) on 8 Oct 2026. Both readings come from the default branch of each repository, on the date shown beside them.
Is Neon or Supabase open source?
We have not read a licence for Neon. Supabase's repository supabase/supabase reports the Apache-2.0 licence. We read the licence GitHub reports for the repository, which is not the same question as whether the hosted product is free.

How we check this page

  • Machine facts. Stars, contributors, the newest commit on the default branch, the licence GitHub reports and the latest stable release come from the GitHub API, and download counts from npm, PyPI, Homebrew and the VS Code Marketplace. Each value carries the day it was last confirmed, never the day this page was built. The line under each label is arithmetic on those two values.
  • Judgments. Every claim about what a tool suits, what it is bad at and what it costs is quoted from a page we read, and that page is linked beside the claim. Where there is no link, we wrote no claim.
  • Index status. We track Supabase's repository and hold nothing checked for Neon, so there is no comparison to make yet. So this page asks search engines not to index it, and it will ask again on every build until the data changes.
