Q2 2026 Developer Pricing Preview

Aurora PostgreSQL Serverless added to AWS Free Tier — managed PostgreSQL-compatible database now available at no cost with up to 4 ACUs per cluster and 1 GB storage. Part of AWS Free Plan (6 months + credits) Source ↗

Google Developer Program annual subscription ending March 30. Replaced by Google AI Pro ($10/mo) and AI Ultra ($100/mo) tiers with bundled cloud credits and AI model access. Source ↗

odrive free tier discontinued effective March 31, 2026. Previously free unified cloud storage sync across multiple providers (Google Drive, Dropbox, S3, etc.). Source ↗

HashiCorp legacy free plan for HCP Terraform ends March 31, 2026. All legacy free plan users auto-migrated to enhanced free tier with different limits: 500 managed resources (previously unlimited for small teams), unlimited users, 1 concurrent run, SSO, and policy as code (Sentinel + OPA) Source ↗

Grandfathered Pro pricing ($15/mo) confirmed indefinite. Credit system fully replaced by daily/weekly quotas for all plans. Source ↗

Cloud & dedicated server prices increasing 30-50%. Entry-level CX23: €2.99→€3.99/mo (+33%). Applies to new and existing customers. Driven by DRAM (+171% YoY) and NVMe SSD cost surges from AI infrastructure demand. Superseded 2026-06-15: Hetzner ran a second adjustment across all cloud and dedicated lines, applying to new orders and rescales only. Read from hetzner.com on 2026-09-03: CX23 is €5.99 and is marked "not available", as is every other shared-vCPU plan, and the cheapest orderable plan is CPX12 at €11.99/mo. Source ↗

Billing-account-level spend caps enforced starting April 1, 2026. When a tier's spend cap is reached, API requests pause until the next billing month. Affects pay-as-you-go developers who may see unexpected request pausing. Source ↗

Replit Core plan dropped from $25/month to $20/month (now includes 5 collaborators). New Pro plan added at $100/month with Agent modes, tiered credits, and up to 15 builders. Teams plan sunset (auto-migrated to Pro). Free tier unchanged (limited AI credits, basic compute) Source ↗

SonarQube Cloud introduced more granular Team tier pricing with differentiated feature access. Free tier for open-source projects remains. Paid tiers restructured for clearer scaling path from small teams to enterprise Source ↗

OVHcloud VPS prices increased dramatically April 1, 2026. VPS Starter (VPS-1) from $4.90 to $7.60/mo (+55%), VPS Essential (VPS-2) similarly increased, VPS Comfort (VPS-4) from $26.00 to $43.50/mo (+67%). Root cause: AI-driven DRAM prices up 250-300% and NVMe SSD costs surging. Affects all new and existing VPS customers. Source ↗

OVHcloud Public Cloud, Private Cloud, and Bare Metal prices increased 9-11% for deployments made 2026-2028. Pre-2025 deployments see smaller 2-6% increase depending on equipment age. IPv4 pricing also increased. Driven by same DRAM/NVMe cost surge as VPS increases. Source ↗

Switched from per-seat subscription to pay-as-you-go token-based pricing. Teams can add Codex-only seats billed on token consumption with no rate limits. ChatGPT Business price cut from $25 to $20/month (annual). $100 credit per new Codex team member (up to $500/team, limited time) Source ↗

Three material policy changes: (1) Third-party tool restrictions — external tools like OpenClaw now billed separately on pay-as-you-go, can no longer apply standard usage limits. (2) Extra usage option — all paid plans (Pro, Max 5x, Max 20x) have pay-as-you-go overage at standard API rates. (3) Peak-hour throttling (acknowledged March 31) — 5-hour session limits reduced during weekdays 5 AM–11 AM Pacific. Source ↗

Amazon Kiro AI coding assistant launched GA with tiered credit-based pricing: Free tier (50 credits/month), Pro ($20/month, 1,000 credits), Pro+ ($40/month, 2,000 credits). Credits metered to 0.01 increments, model-dependent rates. Source ↗

Cursor introduced Pro+ tier at $60/month between Pro ($20) and Ultra ($200). Pro+ includes 10x premium model requests vs Pro, priority access, and expanded context window. Expands the pricing ladder from 3 tiers (Free/Pro/Ultra) to 4 (Free/Pro/Pro+/Ultra), filling the $20-$200 gap. Source ↗

No longer in force (2026-09-05). Gemini API free tier restricted to Flash and Flash-Lite models only (April 2026). Gemini 2.5 Pro and other Pro models now require a paid billing account. Previously free users could access Pro models with rate limits. Combined with April 1 spend cap enforcement, this significantly narrows what is available at $0. No longer in force as of 2026-09-05: this record's own source page gives Gemini 2.5 Pro a Free Tier of "Free of charge" for input and for output. The contrast is on the same table - Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview reads "Not available" in the Free Tier column, which is what a paid-only model looks like there. Gemini 3.1 Pro is paid-only; 2.5 Pro is not. We hold no evidence either way about the state on 2026-04-08, so this is recorded as no longer in force rather than retracted. Source ↗

Amazon Kiro launched GA with a free tier of 50 credits/month. Claude-powered IDE focused on spec-driven development. Pro $20/mo (1,000 credits), Pro+ $40/mo (2,000), Power $200/mo (10,000). Credits metered to 0.01 increments, model-dependent rates. $0.04 overage per credit. Enterprise tier available. Source ↗

No longer in force (2026-09-02). GitHub paused new Copilot Pro trials due to abuse. Existing trials continued through their term. New users could still subscribe to Pro directly (paid) until the broader April 20 signup pause closed that path too. Resolved: Copilot Pro is open to new subscribers, verified 2026-09-02 against GitHub's plans documentation. Source ↗

Free tier removed. Lowest plan is now Indie at $20/month with 40K credits. Credit-based consumption model replaces flat per-seat pricing Source ↗

Private repo free tier expanded from 1 repo to unlimited repos with 1,000 scans/month and up to 5 members Source ↗

Community Emulator still available as open source despite earlier discontinuation announcement. Free tier rebranded as Hobby plan with 30+ services Source ↗

Xata Lite returned HTTP 410 Gone. Service has been discontinued. Source ↗

Domain no longer resolves (DNS ENOTFOUND). We hold no source for this record, so it does not set stathat.com's rating.

No longer in force (2026-09-05). $25/month free API credits no longer offered — Grok API paid-only No longer in force as of 2026-09-05. This record cites nothing and xAI does not publish its sign-up credit terms on a page we can read, so it cannot be retracted on evidence; it is withdrawn because the claim it makes is contradicted by our own later record. Our xAI offer, verified 2026-08-14 and re-checked 2026-09-02, reads "Sign-up gives $25 in free API credits". Recorded separately: the URL that offer cites, docs.x.ai/developers/models, contains no occurrence of "free", "credit" or "$25" in its 5,452 characters of visible text, so that claim is also uncited and needs a source of its own. We hold no source for this record, so it does not set xAI's rating.

Retracted — this record was our error (2026-09-05). Free tier replaced by 14-day trial for Reasoning Engine Retracted 2026-09-05: Clarifai's Community plan was not replaced by a trial. The Internet Archive's 2026-03-04 capture of clarifai.com/pricing, five weeks before this record, and its 2026-04-17 capture, four days after it, both carry the same Compare Plans ladder: "Community | Get Community | Essential | Get Essential | Professional | Get Professional | Hybrid AI Enterprise | Contact Us | Private AI Enterprise | Contact Us", with "Monthly requests: Limited" and "Requests per second: 1" in the Community column. Community is an orderable plan on both sides of this record's date. The 14-day trial named here is the hero banner above that table - "Benchmark your models on the world's fastest inference engine with a free 14-day trial" - which offers a trial of the Reasoning Engine, not a replacement for the plan ladder. Our own offer record, verified 2026-07-15, reads "Community tier: 1,000 API calls/month". We hold no source for this record, so it does not set Clarifai's rating.

Amazon SP-API per-call fees (originally April 30, 2026) postponed indefinitely following widespread developer backlash. The $1,400/year annual fee (started Jan 31) remains in effect, but per-call GET fees ($0.40/1K calls above tier allowance) have no new implementation date. Amazon cited "additional feedback" from developer community as reason for delay. Source ↗

Prospect.io startup deal via JoinSecret removed. joinsecret.com returns 403 errors and Prospect.io's own pricing page 404s. We hold no source for this record, so it does not set Prospect.io's rating.

No longer in force (2026-09-02).

Reversed: GitHub's changelog post for this change is marked Retired, and its plans documentation offers Copilot Pro, Pro+, Max and Copilot Student to new users, verified 2026-09-02.

Hyperping free plan limits restructured: monitor cap raised from 5 to 20 (HTTP, port, ping, keyword), but the check interval slowed from 3 minutes to 5 minutes. Free plan now also includes 1 seat and 1 server monitoring agent. Trade-off: 4x more endpoints can be monitored, at the cost of slower check granularity. Source ↗

The pause announcement is marked Retired. Source ↗

Hetzner's second 2026 adjustment, effective 15 June, moved the two cloud lines at very different rates: shared-vCPU plans rose 30-38% (CX23 €3.99→€5.49, CAX11 €4.49→€5.99) and dedicated-vCPU plans rose 113-175% (CPX22 €7.99→€19.49, CCX13 €15.99→€42.99, CCX53 €249.99→€533.49). EU figures, taken from Hetzner's own old/new table and excluding the €0.50/mo primary IPv4 that hetzner.com's plan cards include in their displayed price. Scope: all dedicated servers and cloud plans at all locations, for new orders and rescales only — existing contracts keep their terms. Excluded: web hosting, managed servers, Server Auction, IPs, storage products, Load Balancers, Volumes, Snapshots and Object Storage. Setup fees on most dedicated servers were cut at the same time. Read on 2026-09-04: every Cost-Optimized plan (CX23-CX53, CAX11-CAX41) is marked "not available" on hetzner.com, so the line that rose least is the line nobody can order. Source ↗
