Pricing FAQ

Yes. The free tier is not a trial. There is no time limit, no expiry date, and no automatic upgrade. You keep access to your 5 ducks and all free-tier features for as long as you use the platform. We will announce any changes at least 90 days in advance.
Galaxy 1.2 pricing has not been finalised. We will publish exact pricing before launch. Join the Galaxy 1.2 waitlist to be notified and to lock in early-adopter pricing if offered.
For a typical small fleet (under 50 requests/minute), AWS Lambda, DynamoDB on-demand, Cognito, and S3 will cost roughly $1–5/month. Lambda is free up to 1M requests/month. DynamoDB on-demand charges per read/write unit. See the open-source page for the full infra breakdown.
Yes. The managed Galaxy and the self-hosted stack share the same open-source engine and the same data schemas. Export your birth certificates and duck metadata, deploy the stack on your own account, and re-import. Migration documentation will be published with Galaxy 1.2.
No. The free tier has a hard limit of 5 ducks. If you reach the limit you will be prompted to upgrade to Galaxy 1.2 or self-host. You will never receive an unexpected bill from Duck Galaxy. We do not have a credit card on file for free-tier users.
The feature list for Galaxy 1.2 reflects the planned scope as of Galaxy 1.1 Beta. Features may be adjusted before launch. The free-tier column is final for the current release.
