Supabase Auth

Auth & Infrastructure
Built-in auth system within Supabase with email/password, magic links, social OAuth, and row-level security that ties directly to your Postgres database.
Supabase Auth is a comprehensive authentication system built directly into the Supabase platform, storing user data natively in PostgreSQL with tight Row Level Security (RLS) integration for granular authorization rules at the database level. It supports email/password, magic links, OTP, social OAuth (20+ providers), enterprise SSO, MFA (TOTP, SMS, WebAuthn), and passkeys, with well-designed SDKs for JavaScript, Flutter, and Swift. Offering 50,000 free MAUs and approximately $0.00325 per MAU beyond that, it is one of the most cost-effective auth solutions at scale, though it requires using Supabase as your backend platform and is not a standalone auth solution.
