I've been using https://github.com/alixaxel/ArrestDB for a while, which is kind of a "no frills instant API" over MySQL so I'm interested in this. But man, from a lone indie developers perspective, the pricing seems kind of steep. It probably does make a lot more sense for mid to large orgs though, so props on that.

What kind of pricing would you expect? What size datasets are you using? You can create an unlimited number of databases for free, as long as each one is < 1200 records. We're also interested in exploring other pricing plans, especially for developers (our current plans are designed around business users)

I've never heard of this service before but i'm definitely going to look into it this weekend, if I'm correct and it fits into my workflow it could be a really good option for me but the pricing is a bit steep for me as well. (I'm not a business but a personal user.)

A $3-$5pm plan with unlimited records and a lower limit on API calls and attachments than the plus plan would be very tempting!
