Cost simulator

Set a number of users and see what the monthly bill would be. It projects costs only, it says nothing about revenue, growth, or how many users we will actually have.

Nothing here is a real measurement. These are projections from the assumptions you set below.

Assumptions

Set the numbers you want to model. Nothing here changes the live app.

Jump to:
How many different people open or edit a trip in a month.
Average itineraries created per user (measured live from accounts).
Average API requests per user per month (measured live from activity).
Share of queries served from cache (measured live from API traffic).

Break-even calculator

If we charged for TripDeck, how many paying users would it take to cover the bill above?

Model this as a paid product Some providers' free tiers are non-commercial only (Open-Meteo, AirLabs). Once we charge money, those move to their paid plan regardless of volume.
What we'd charge each paying user per month.
Of the Monthly Active Users set above, how many convert to a paid plan.
