A cost calculator that refuses to guess a price
Cloud pricing pages ask for numbers most people don't have handy — requests per second, GB transferred per month. This tool takes the numbers you do know — roughly how many requests a month, how big a typical response is, how much you store, how much leaves your app — and converts them into the exact structural figures the vendor calculators want. It will never show you a dollar sign. Here's why that's the honest choice, not a missing feature.
Prefer prose over arithmetic? DeployCloud's cost optimization guide walks through the same ideas — what drives cloud spend and how to control it — without any inputs to fill in.
The calculator
Describe your traffic, get the numbers vendors ask for
Defaults are prefilled so it computes immediately — change any field and the results update live. Nothing here is sent anywhere; it all runs in your browser.
What that means, structurally
| 1 request/second | ≈ 2,592,000 requests/month |
| 10 requests/second | ≈ 25,920,000 requests/month |
| 100 requests/second | ≈ 259,200,000 requests/month |
Why these four numbers
Each input maps to a different billing dimension
Vendors don't all charge for the same things, or in the same proportions. This map is qualitative — it tells you what typically gets metered, not what it costs.
| Your input | Billing dimension it typically feeds | How much this varies by vendor |
|---|---|---|
| Requests / month | Invocation or request-count billing, and indirectly compute-time billing (more requests usually means more total execution time) | High — some platforms meter every request past a free tier; traditional always-on servers often don't meter requests at all |
| Response size | Egress/bandwidth billing, combined with request count | Extreme — Cloudflare Workers and R2 charge no egress fee at all on any plan; many other providers meter every GB leaving their network |
| Data stored | Storage billing, usually per GB per month, sometimes with separate operation charges | Moderate — per-GB storage rates are fairly close across vendors; the operation-charge layer on top (like D1's per-row-read/written pricing) varies more |
| Egress | Bandwidth/data-transfer-out billing | Extreme — this is often the single biggest source of total-cost variation between vendors, since some zero-rate it entirely |
Two data points worth sitting with, both taken directly from vendor documentation: Cloudflare's Workers Paid plan states plainly that "there are no additional charges for data transfer (egress) or throughput (bandwidth)," and Cloudflare's R2 object storage similarly charges "no charges for egress bandwidth for any storage class." That single structural choice can matter more to your total bill than any per-unit rate comparison — which is exactly the kind of fact a calculator that only outputs a number would hide from you.
Now get real numbers
Take the requests-per-second and GB/month figures above to any of these — they're the vendors' own tools, kept current by the people who set the prices.
