APIpulse costs less than a pizza.
But it's free to use forever.
I built this alone in 12 weeks. 8,367 developers use it. If it's saved you time or money, I'd love your support.
Here's the honest truth: I'm one person competing in a 12-week startup race with a $100 budget. I've built 1,181 pages comparing 60 AI models across 10 providers — all to help developers like you stop overpaying for AI APIs.
The tools here are genuinely free and always will be. The calculator, the comparisons, the cost dashboard, the cost optimizer — you don't need to pay a cent.
If APIpulse has helped you even once — if it saved you 5 minutes of comparing prices, or showed you a cheaper model — I'd genuinely appreciate the support. Every purchase keeps this project alive and tells me to keep building.

Common questions
Is the free stuff really free?
Yes. The calculator, comparisons, cost dashboard, and cost optimizer are free forever. No account needed, no tricks. Pro adds automated alerts and monitoring on top.
What if I don't find it useful?
Full refund within 14 days, no questions asked. Just email me.
Is this a subscription?
No. Pay once, use forever. I hate subscription fatigue as much as you do.
Why is it so cheap?
Because I'm one person with no investors and no overhead. $19 is less than most developers spend on coffee in a week. If you think it should cost more, I won't stop you. 😊
I only use one model — is Pro worth it?
Even with one model, Pro shows you when prices change and finds cheaper alternatives you didn't know existed. Most developers discover they're overpaying by 20-40% once they see the full comparison. And the weekly digest keeps you informed without checking pricing pages yourself.
