I use the Solo tier in production, $5/mo flat fee for my blog. Neon was costing me nearly $50/mo on an average month. I'm already paying $15/mo for Redis on Upstash. I'm that over too when I have more free time. This is my new DB platform. And the Desktop IDE is so cool. I used to use DBNgin and TablePlus (which wasn't free) but I've replaced both of them locally for Layerbase desktop on Mac. Only 1 downside is it doesn't have AI tools built in to debug queries which seems like an obvious feature in 2026
Modern apps need two or three different databases so it's cool to see a place where you can get more than one DB in the same place. None of the major players have a free tier, nor do they support 20 different databases, so stoked to have found this, right up my alley.
