Plans
| Plan | Price / mo | Documented limit | Included / month | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter RPC Nodes | See source | 100 CU/s | 2M credits | — |
- Starter RPC Nodes: Starter is $149 a month with 2M compute units. Moralis's pages disagree on the billing period - the RPC docs say "Prices shown are for monthly billing", the pricing page shows the same figures billed annually - so no monthly price is recorded. Node throughput is 100 CU/s per node (5 nodes), separate from the 40 requests/s API limit. Pro ($249, 100M CU, 80 requests/s, 20 nodes) and Business ($749, 500M CU, 200 requests/s, 300 CU/s, unlimited nodes) follow. No free plan is listed.
