Biggest Losses (4)

removed Koyeb Databases
Koyeb withdrew its free Starter plan from new users after announcing on 2026-02-17 that it is joining Mistral AI: new users "must subscribe to one of our paid plans to get started", from Pro at $29 a month plus compute. Starter was on koyeb.com/pricing in the Internet Archive's capture of 2026-02-19 and gone by 2026-02-26. Organizations already on Starter keep it. Source ↗
deprecated Xata Lite Databases
Xata retired Xata Lite, its original serverless platform with a 15 GB free plan, on 2026-02-28. It announced the retirement and closed Lite sign-ups by 2025-12-08. Source ↗
reduced incidenthub.cloud Monitoring
Between 2026-02-10 and 2026-02-28, incidenthub.cloud cut its free tier from 10 monitors to 5 and dropped its status page; Discord and Slack integration remained. It had cut the free tier from 20 monitors to 10 in October 2025. Source ↗
