How pricing works

  1. 1

    Each request uses compute units

    Different API methods use different numbers of CUs. If you estimate from requests, choose an average that reflects the methods your app calls.

  2. 2

    Flat-rate compute pricing

    Compute usage costs $0.525 per 1 million CUs. Throughput capacity is priced separately.

  3. 3

    Peak capacity is separate

    Pay as You Go includes 300 RPS (10,000 CU/s). Above that, each additional 5,000 CU/s block costs $160 per month.

  4. 4

    Self-serve capacity ends at 30,000 CU/s

    If you need more than 30,000 CU/s, contact sales for a custom capacity quote.

Estimates use published self-serve Pay as You Go rates. Actual compute usage varies by API method. Throughput is measured over a rolling 10-second window.

Frequently asked questions

  • Compute Units (CUs) measure the computational resources your application consumes. Each API request uses a certain number of CUs depending on its complexity—for example, a simple JSON-RPC call might use 10 CUs, while more complex operations may use 100+ CUs. This enables flexible, usage-based pricing. For a simpler way to estimate your traffic in Compute Units, you can assume an average of 27 CUs per request, which reflects the most common traffic patterns we observe on our platform. Check the full breakdown of CUs / method in our docs.
  • Getting started is simple: 1) Sign up for a free account at dashboard.alchemy.com, 2) Create an application to get your API keys, 3) Integrate our SDK or make direct API calls, 4) Start building! You'll immediately have access to 30M free Compute Units per month on the Free plan.
  • Pay As You Go is our flexible pricing plan for teams scaling beyond the free tier. You pay $0.525 per million CUs for all usage. There are no upfront commitments; you only pay for what you use. This plan includes priority support and higher rate limits.
  • The Free plan is perfect for development and low-traffic applications. If you're production-ready or expecting significant usage growth, the Pay As You Go plan offers scalability and cost-efficiency. For enterprises with predictable, high-volume usage, contact our sales team for custom pricing and SLAs.
  • Alchemy supports all major Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks including Ethereum, Solana, BNB Smart Chain, Avalanche, Polygon PoS, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Starknet, ZKsync, Blast, and many more. Visit our documentation for the complete list of supported chains.
  • For Pay As You Go plans, you'll be billed monthly based on your actual usage. You can view your current usage and estimated costs in the Alchemy Dashboard at any time. Enterprise customers receive custom invoicing based on their contract terms.
  • Yes! You can upgrade from Free to Pay As You Go at any time directly from your dashboard. For Enterprise plans, contact our sales team. Downgrades take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
  • CU (Compute Units): A measure of computational resource usage. Throughput: The maximum number of requests per second your plan supports. SLA (Service Level Agreement): Guaranteed uptime and response time commitments. Rate Limit: The maximum number of API requests allowed per second.
