Neon are updating their pricing plans. I always found it hard to estimate how much a workload would cost-this makes it a little clearer.

Seems like this will be a huge price hike for my current use-case (many small infrequently used projects for things like labs, courses, POCs or projects just starting). Neon has not been around for long enough for us to use them on large, customer-facing projects yet. I'm pretty disappointed with a company that until recently I have loved using and have had great communication with.

This really signals a move away from a "pay-for-what-you-use" model (i.e. actually serverless) and towards something where they put arbitrary caps on plans to make you upgrade. Why can't I pay for extra storage or projects on the launch plan? Why do I have to pay for a Scale plan to set my autoscaling timeout lower?!

Hi, I work for Neon. Our product team would like to chat with customers to get their perspective on the changes. If you're an existing Pro Plan user, your email should have a link that you can use to arrange a chat with the team. Feel free to reach out via Twitter or Discord instead if you'd like.

Hey, I had a meeting with your sales dept in November and have been in talks around feature suggestions and requirements before and after that. I've replied to the email I got regarding my pro plan getting bumped to a scale plan (which in itself is reasonable, it's the pricing model itself i find questionable) and I'll consider scheduling a call via the link too.

I love what you guys are doing technically, I'm just a bit anxious about the path that this seems to take you away from the pay-for-what-you-use model.
