Upstash Vector Cost Calculator
Enter requests (queries + upserts) per day or month, storage GB or vectors × dimensions, bandwidth and indexes. The calculator prices Upstash Vector Pay as You Go and Fixed ($60, up to 1M requests/day, storage still billed), checks the Free tier and shows the ~15M requests/month break-even.

Pay as You Go

Fixed

Break-even
—
Formula: Pay as You Go = requests ÷ 100K × $0.40 (queries and upserts same price) + storage GB × $0.25 (daily average) + bandwidth over 200 GB × $0.03 + indexes beyond 10 × $0.50. Fixed = $60 (includes up to 1M requests/day) + the same storage, bandwidth and index charges. Because storage is billed on both, Fixed beats PAYG above $60 ÷ $0.40 × 100K = 15M requests/month regardless of storage. Free: 10K requests/day, 1 GB, max 1536 dims. PAYG max 50 GB and 3072 dims; Pro is contact-sales.

How it works
- How much does Upstash Vector cost?
- Pay as You Go is $0.40 per 100K requests (queries and upserts cost the same) plus $0.25 per GB of storage (daily average); bandwidth is free up to 200 GB/month, then $0.03/GB. Fixed is $60/month including up to 1M requests per day, with storage still billed at $0.25/GB.
- When is the Fixed plan cheaper?
- Above about 15 million requests per month (~500K/day): $60 ÷ $0.40 × 100K = 15M. Storage is charged on both plans, so it cancels out and the break-even does not depend on storage.
- What does the Free tier include?
- 10K queries + updates per day, 1 GB total data, up to 1536 dimensions and 200M vectors × dimensions, at $0.
- Are there limits on Pay as You Go?
- PAYG allows up to 50 GB of data and 3072 dimensions. Up to 10 indexes are included; each extra index is $0.50. Larger workloads move to Pro, which is contact-sales.
- How do I estimate storage?
- Enter storage GB directly, or leave it at 0 to derive it: vectors × (dimensions × 4 bytes + metadata bytes) ÷ 1e9. One million 1536-dim vectors ≈ 6.14 GB ≈ $1.54/month.
