Description

Powabase is an AI-native Postgres backend for AI apps, positioned as a Supabase alternative with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and agents built in.

Every project gets its own dedicated Postgres database and compute, plus auth, object storage and realtime, all accessible through one REST API, PostgREST or a direct database connection.

Documents such as PDFs, images, office files and URLs are extracted, chunked, embedded and indexed on upload. Search options include BM25, pgvector, hybrid search and rerankers, and the site reports 91% accuracy for its built-in OCR on OlmOCR-Bench.

Agents can be defined as ReAct orchestrations with multiple LLMs, knowledge bases and tools called over HTTP or MCP, with persistent sessions, streaming over SSE, full event logging and human approval for sensitive calls.

It is designed to work with coding agents and app builders including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Antigravity, OpenCode, Replit, Lovable, v0, Base44 and Bolt.new, through an agent skill, an MCP server or the API.

You can bring your own keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and OpenRouter, stored encrypted per project, or pay for inference from Powabase credits.

Pricing: a self-hosted edition is free and open source under Apache-2.0. Powabase Cloud has a Free plan with US$10 in sign-up credits, Self Serve at US$25 per month, Scale at US$300 per month, and custom Enterprise plans. Paid plans include matching monthly credits that roll over.

It is suited to developers and teams building AI apps, support bots and agent workflows who want backend, retrieval and agents in one place.
