## Tiers

- **Free**, $0/mo: 500 MB database, 5 GB egress, 1 GB file storage, 50,000 monthly active users, 2 active projects, paused after a week of inactivity
- **Pro**, $25/mo: 8 GB disk, 250 GB egress, 100 GB file storage, 100,000 monthly active users, $10/mo compute credit included; extra projects from $10/mo
- **Team**, $599/mo: Same usage allowances as Pro, plus SOC 2, ISO 27001, SSO, priority support and 14 days of daily backups

## Good

- Standard Postgres, so leaving is a pg_dump rather than a rewrite
- Auth, file storage, realtime and edge functions in the same project
- Genuinely open source, dashboard included, so self-hosting is a real option

## Not good

- Free projects pause after a week of inactivity, which catches out side projects
- Compute is billed on top of the $25 fee once you outgrow the $10 credit, so Pro is a floor and not a price
- Nothing between Pro at $25 and Team at $599

## Specifics

- Engine: Postgres
- Free tier: 500 MB, 50K monthly active users
- Self-host: Yes, the whole stack
- Auth and storage built in: Yes
- Scales to zero: Free plan pauses; paid plans stay warm
- Portability: Standard Postgres, dump and go

## Price history
