The content layer Supabase leaves to you.
Supabase nails the database, auth, and APIs. Then the content layer, the admin, localization, and AI are yours to build. Tangen is that layer, code-first and ready to use.
Where Tangen is different
A real content admin
Supabase gives you a table editor. Tangen gives editors a purpose-built admin with live preview and media.
Typed content, not raw tables
Model object types, relations, blocks, and localization, instead of hand-rolling them over SQL.
Publishing built in
Drafts, scheduling, versioning, and publish gates come with the platform.
AI-native
MCP and RAG ship in the box, so agents work with your content, not just your rows.
Localization first-class
Per-field locales, block overlays, and per-asset media, without designing the schema yourself.
Still yours to own
Like Supabase, Tangen is code-first and self-hosted on Postgres. It adds the layer above the database.
Where Supabase may be the better fit.
We would rather you pick the right tool than oversell ours. Reach for Supabase when:
Your product is database-first and does not need a content admin.
You want realtime, edge functions, and auth as the core of the stack.
You are happy to build the editor and content layer yourself.
Build on Tangen in the private beta.
Define a content type, push it, and query it from anywhere, with your own AI agent doing the rest. Request access and we will get you set up.
