Supabase Middleware: composable, reusable middleware for Web Fetch handlers

Supabase has released a type-safe, composable middleware library designed for Web Fetch handlers. This utility allows developers to write middleware once and deploy it across any fetch-compatible runtime or framework.

➔ Developers can utilize a unified, type-safe middleware library that is compatible with any Web Fetch handler across multiple runtimes.
featureOct 14, 2026

A local Supabase project per agent, with or without Docker

Supabase now supports running multiple isolated local projects simultaneously on a single machine. This update introduces a non-Docker execution mode to reduce memory overhead and improve startup latency.

➔ Support for multiple concurrent local Supabase projects with an optional non-Docker execution mode.
product launchOct 14, 2026

How we made the Supabase Select 2026 badge

Supabase distributed 800 custom-manufactured, programmable hardware badges to attendees of the Supabase Select 2026 event. These badges feature integrated hardware capabilities that allow attendees to execute custom code or logic on the device.

➔ Attendees now possess custom-manufactured, programmable hardware badges capable of running user-defined code.
product launchOct 13, 2026

Ship changes to your Supabase backend with Grok Bot

Supabase has integrated with the SpaceXAI Partner Network to enable direct backend modifications via Grok Bot. Users can now trigger automated code generation and execution on their Supabase backend through the Cursor IDE interface.

➔ Developers can request backend changes via Grok Bot, which uses Cursor to automate the generation and execution of code against the Supabase backend.

All AI Gateway models with prepaid credits, backend features with your coding agent, and new ways to send feedback release - Oct 09, 2026

Neon has enabled prepaid credit access for all AI Gateway models, removing the requirement for manual access requests for frontier models. Additionally, the platform has introduced new backend integration features for coding agents and updated feedback submission mechanisms.

➔ All AI Gateway models are immediately accessible via prepaid credits without manual approval, alongside new backend coding agent integrations.
featureSep 25, 2026

Neon Introduces Object Storage Reset for Database Branches

Neon now allows users to reset a branch's Object Storage directly from its parent branch. This update ensures that both Postgres data and associated Object Storage are rolled back simultaneously during a branch reset.

➔ Branch resets now roll back both Postgres data and Object Storage to match the parent branch state.
featureSep 21, 2026

Electric SQL Sync Engine and PGlite Integrated into Neon Platform

The Electric team has joined Neon to integrate their sync engine and PGlite technology directly into the Neon database platform. This acquisition enables continuous data synchronization between Postgres databases and client-side applications.

➔ Neon now supports continuous, real-time data synchronization via the Electric sync engine and provides PGlite for local, WASM-based Postgres execution in client environments.
