Supabase Connection Timeout - Auth or Database Requests Hang
Requests to Supabase hang indefinitely or timeout after 30 seconds. Login, signup, or database queries never complete.
The app connects fine locally but fails on deployment, or works initially then starts timing out under load.
Error Messages You Might See
Error: connection timeout after 30000ms
Fetch failed: timeout waiting for response
Error: Policy violation - permission denied
Common Causes
- Supabase URL or API key incorrect or not loaded from env
- Network firewall blocking Supabase API domain
- Session token expired and refresh failing silently
- Database query taking too long without timeout handling
- RLS (Row Level Security) policies blocking all queries
How to Fix It
Verify environment variables: console.log(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL)
Add timeout to Supabase client: const client = createClient(url, key, { realtime: { timeout: 10000 } })
Check RLS policies on tables - ensure logged-in users can actually select/insert
Use Supabase dashboard to test queries directly

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindsetābalancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.

Caio Rodrigues
I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**
