Neon Postgres Cost Calculator

Pick Launch or Scale, enter CU-hours (or avg CU × active hours), storage GB, and optional restore history, public egress and extra branches. See compute $, storage $, restore $, egress $, branch $ and total. Idle scale-to-zero bills $0 CU-hours. MVP = Lakebase Postgres compute + storage only (not Auth/Object Storage/Functions/AI Gateway). Official list prices as of 2026-11-03; neon.com/pricing prevails.

Neon Lakebase Postgres MVP (compute + storage only). Launch $0.106 / CU-hour; Scale $0.222 / CU-hour. Idle scale-to-zero = $0 CU-hours. Storage (root/child) $0.35 / GB-month. Instant restore (History) $0.20 / GB-month (toggle; default off). Public egress: Launch/Scale 500 GB/project included, then $0.10 / GB (Free plan note: 5 GB). Extra branches $1.50 / branch-month above included (Launch 10, Scale 25). Smoke (Launch intermittent): 140 CU-hours × $0.106 + 1 GB × $0.35 = $15.19. Out of MVP: Object Storage $0.023/GB-mo and Functions Capacity-Hours; Agent plan compute uses Launch CU rate.

How it works

How much does Neon Launch compute cost?
Launch is $0.106 per CU-hour; Scale is $0.222 per CU-hour (as of 2026-11-03). Idle endpoints that scale to zero bill $0 CU-hours. Storage is $0.35 per GB-month on both paid plans.
What is the intermittent-load smoke check?
140 CU-hours × $0.106 = $14.84, plus 1 GB × $0.35 = $0.35 → $15.19 total on Launch (Neon intermittent-load style example).
What about instant restore and egress?
Instant restore (History) is $0.20 per GB-month (optional toggle, default off). Public egress on Launch/Scale includes 500 GB/project, then $0.10/GB. Free plan note: 5 GB egress.
Are branches billed?
Extra branches above the included allotment (Launch/Free 10, Scale 25) cost $1.50 per branch-month. Optional advanced input in this calculator.
What is out of MVP?
Object Storage ($0.023/GB-month), Functions Capacity-Hours, Auth, and AI Gateway are out of this calculator. Agent plan compute uses the Launch CU rate — mention only.
