BackupDrill features

  • Full DB & Storage snapshots. Backs up PostgreSQL and all Storage files together into your own bucket.
  • Automated restore drills. Runs weekly (or daily) restore tests in an isolated sandbox and emails a verification report.
  • Open-source backup engine. MIT-licensed CLI you can audit or run yourself.
  • No server hosting. Bytes stream through BackupDrill workers; snapshots never touch their disks.
  • Granular project limits. Plans define number of projects, backup frequency, and storage caps per project.

Reeve features

  • Automated backups. Daily, 12-hour or 6-hour backups of Supabase DB and user files stored off-platform in the EU.
  • One-click restore. Select a restore point, create a safety copy, and restore database and files with a single button.
  • Backup verification. Each copy is verified by counting rows and comparing with the previous dump.
  • External storage. Backups are encrypted and kept outside Supabase on EU-resident infrastructure.
  • Uptime monitoring. Checks app availability every minute (or 15 s on Care Max) and alerts on downtime.
  • Security scans. Hourly (or every 15 min) scans for exposed keys and other issues, with fixes written for your builder.
  • Monthly plain-language reports. PDF reports summarizing backups, scans, and uptime for each monitored app.
  • Downloadable dumps. Export any backup as a zip containing schema.sql, data.sql and roles.sql.
