Pricing (Preview)¶
Preview pricing approach; details may change before beta/GA.
Note
Status: Private preview. If you’d like to help us shape pricing and quotas, please join the Early Access list.
Principles¶
- Transparent and predictable
- Pay for what you use, with clear caps
- Generous free tier for development and small projects
- Easy to export your data at any time (no lock‑in)
Tiers (evolving)¶
- Developer (Preview): Free during preview; caps for storage/requests/egress.
- Team (Beta): Usage‑based with caps; higher limits and basic support.
- Enterprise (GA): Contract pricing; SSO, audit logs, SLAs.
Exact limits and rates will be published before public beta.
What we meter¶
We meter a small set of intuitive dimensions:
- Storage at rest (GB‑month)
- API requests and background jobs
- Egress bandwidth (GB)
- Optional: vector index operations (if materially different from standard requests)
During preview, we’ll validate these and publish concrete numbers.
Preview allowances¶
- Developer (Preview): free within generous caps
- Hard caps to avoid surprise bills; credits or extended free usage for early adopters
Exact caps will be shared in your invite.
Billing and invoicing¶
- Billing: Stripe.
- Invoices/receipts via Stripe.
- Usage dashboard with monthly breakdowns (beta).
- Payments: cards initially; invoices/P.O. for Enterprise at GA.
