Cloudflare Workers vs Supabase

Head-to-head, indicative as of Oct 2026. Prices change — always confirm on the vendor page.

Verdict

Quick read: pick Cloudflare Workers if your workload is zero-egress-cost apis, redirects, edge personalization and its included egress fits your traffic shape; pick Supabase if you need postgres, auth, storage without a backend team. For anything latency-sensitive at the edge, cold start row is the tiebreaker.
