Yeah many of these are expensive. How many requests are you getting and what's your budget?
I might suggest just putting cloudflare in front of your API, keeping track of API keys yourself in your own DB, then using Stripe/LemonSqueezy's usage-based pricing model and incrementing usage yourself if you want to save money
That way you don't need to pay for an extra API gateway
I have one client that I charge $400/month. Potential for more but not certain.
I don't want to config a custom solution (for now) which is why Zuplo would be perfect, but I'm using so much data that a big chunk of that $400 would go to them.
Thanks Ben, Tyk looks great but starts at $600/month, not very indie hacker friendly!
