Forte vs. Supabase

Supabase is a great backend. Forte adds the hosting and payments to run and monetize the product.

Supabase gives you authentication and backend building blocks. Forte runs your application code and adds payments, so you can deploy your app, sign in your users, and charge them from one platform.
