Pricing
Currently, I'm right on the edge of choosing Convex over Supabase. Have been reading the docs for a few days. However, the lack of clarity over pricing is holding me back. Especially related to the Function calls (25M) and Action compute(250 GB-hours) in the Pro plan. As far as I know, Supabase doesn't have such restrictions in their Pro plan (unlimited requests and shared CPU without any restriction on compute hours). Upon searching Discord, I couldn't find anything meaningful about it.
In fact, another user shared a similar concern a couple of days ago- "if you have 100 users in a chat room, and 100 messages are added, does it cost you 10,000 (GET) + 100 (POST) function calls usage?". Some users were discussing about it in August as well, when someone suggested a pricing structure like- https://aws.amazon.com/amplify/pricing/.
In fact, for my use case, Chatgpt gave me an sample estimate of 72M calls/month (for chat, subscription, updates etc) for a decently scaled project I'm planning. However, there is no certainity about it. It is just a rough estimate. Could be more, could be less. But if true, that estimate would probably add another $100($2/M) to the monthly bill. Had a nice experience with Convex so far and would like to build here, but don't want to be surprised with the 'serverless' bills later down the road. It would be a bit hard to change the setup then. So, it would be really helpful, if someone can provide more clarity about it.
