Billing and pricing
Why does my billing summary show charges before I created my account?
Why does my billing summary show charges before I created my account?
If you see charges in your billing summary that predate your account creation, this is because your subgraphs were pre-migrated before your account was formally created.Important: You are not responsible for this bill; all pre-migrated customers have their costs fully waived until December 15th (one week later than Alchemy’s cutoff date). In this time, the billing summary provides an estimate of what your run-rate spend would be but your card will not be charged. You can take until then to right-size your account usage by deleteing unnused subgrphs.
How is pricing calculated?
How is pricing calculated?
For detailed pricing information, see our pricing page. Compared to Alchemy, Goldsky does not charge any per-query fees; however we do have a per-subgraph compute fee. For the majority of users this leads to lower costs by default but we’re committed to matching pricing wherever possible when our costs would otherwise exceed Alchemy’s. If the change in pricing plan leads to higher costs, please contact us at support@goldsky.com and we can apply a coupon on your account.
When do I need to start paying Goldsky?
When do I need to start paying Goldsky?
For enterprise customers, we will discuss an appropriate startdate against the end of your term with Alchemy or some pro-rata date before that end date. For self-serve customers, billing will take effect on December 15th, 2025, at which point usage of Goldsky products will begin to accrue real costs. Please ensure you have a credit card on file by that date at the latest. If you add a card before then, it will still not be charged for the usage prior to December 15th, 2025.
Performance and features
How does Goldsky's indexing speed compare to Alchemy?
How does Goldsky's indexing speed compare to Alchemy?
Goldsky’s indexing and latency performance is comparable to Alchemy. Performance depends heavily on the subgraph design and infrastructure configuration, making direct quantiative comparisons difficult. If you notice indexing or queries to be slower, contact support and we can tune/optimize your indexer to improve performance..
Does Goldsky support grafting?
Does Goldsky support grafting?
Yes, Goldsky fully supports grafting for subgraphs.
Does Goldsky have RPC call caching?
Does Goldsky have RPC call caching?
Yes, Goldsky has a permanent call cache for subgraph RPC calls. This means that subsequent resyncs of the same or similar subgraphs will be much faster, as RPC calls made during indexing are cached and reused.
Networks and infrastructure
Can I use custom networks?
Can I use custom networks?
Yes, you can provide RPCs to integrate custom networks. Out of the box, Goldsky has support for many more networks than Alchemy, but if you need a custom network added, contact our sales team.
Are block subgraphs available?
Are block subgraphs available?
Yes, similar to Alchemy, Goldsky provides block subgraphs separately that do not contribute to your bill. Contact support@goldsky.com for URLs to the block subgraphs you need. We will be updating this page with a list of available blocks subgraphs and how to (freely) redeploy them to your own account, so check back here shortly as well.
