Ask HN: Cheaper Algolia Alternative?
Been using Algolia in our small bootstrapped application and it’s costing us $600/m for basic search. Any cheaper alternatives out there?
If you cannot self-host it, there is a paid cloud option. It differs from Algolia in that they do not charge by records or search operations. Instead, you get a dedicated cluster and you can throw as much data and traffic at it as it can handle.
