Today, Snap Inc. launched Snap Cloud, a new managed backend platform for developers building on Spectacles, powered by Supabase. Snap Cloud is a complete backend integrated directly into Snap's AR authoring tool, Lens Studio.
Snap Cloud is the latest example of how organizations are using Supabase to power modern, data-driven experiences.
