How pricing works
These two tools don't price the same way, so the headline numbers below aren't directly comparable until you plug in your own volume.
- Make (Per Usage) — Make bills on usage — Operations/credits per month on top of a paid plan starting at $12/mo. The plan includes an allowance; anything beyond it is metered.
- Supabase (Hybrid) — Supabase is hybrid: a fixed subscription from $25/mo plus metered usage on top (Database size / MAUs). Your real bill moves with volume, not seat count.
Per-minute, per-credit and per-token rates exclude any downstream model, speech or telephony costs unless the vendor states otherwise.
Visual workflow automation (formerly Integromat), positioned as the power-user alternative to Zapier. Distinctive for its visual scenario builder that handles complex multi-branch logic Zapier can't. Priced per operation with 1,000 free ops/month. Popular with developers, ops teams, and agencies who hit Zapier's complexity ceiling. Growing share from Zapier and losing some to n8n (self-hostable) as low-code automation splinters into three tiers by user sophistication.
Open-source Firebase alternative, valued $10.5B (June 2026 Series F led by GIC). Positioned as the alternative to Firebase for developers who want Postgres, open-source, and self-hosting option. Distinctive for shipping fast across auth, storage, edge functions, and vector database in a single platform. Free tier includes real production Postgres; paid tiers scale with usage (databases, storage, edge function invocations). Popular with AI/agent builders needing a proper database.
