Which option fits?

Testing or a side project? Start on the free non-commercial tier or a small batch of pay-per-use credits — there's no plan to outgrow, credits just scale with you.

Steady production volume? Past roughly 200,000 calls a month, the $1,000 unlimited subscription beats per-credit pricing — and past that, the AWS server or a data license removes the meter entirely.

Switching from Google Maps? The data products are the option Google can't match: you keep the dataset, cache anything, display on any map. Estimate your savings →
