Railway
railway.com ↗As a PaaS with four distinct services, pricing is primarily usage-based with plan-level credits and many resource knobs that drive consumption. Multiple metered dimensions and high-priced add-ons, plus a custom-priced Enterprise tier, can make total spend variable beyond the included credits.

Watch out for 🕵️
- ⚠️Multiple independent metered dimensions (CPU per vCPU/sec, Memory per GB/sec, Volumes per GB/sec, Services egress per GB, Object Storage per GB-month, Object Storage egress per GB)
- ⚠️Plans include monthly usage credits ($5 on Hobby, $20 on Pro) with overage billed by metered usage after credits
- ⚠️Numerous in-plan configuration limits that affect consumption (vCPU, RAM, replicas, projects, services, build concurrency/timeouts, regions, domains)
- ⚠️Add-ons with significant fixed monthly fees (HIPAA BAAs $1,000; Log History/RBAC/SSO/Audit $2,000; Enterprise Support/Regions/Higher limits $5,000; Dedicated VMs $10,000)
- ⚠️Enterprise tier is contact-sales/custom pricing
- ⚠️No fully inclusive flat plan; ongoing costs primarily usage-based across services
