It also bundles archive data access, a Gas API, and a Debug/Trace API, and it is part of Consensys. Pricing is metered by credits per API request, with plan-level daily quotas and throughput limits.","category":"Finance & Markets","decision_record":{"best_for":"Developers and teams building dApps, wallets, DeFi, NFT, DAO or gaming projects who want managed multi-chain RPC access and archive data without operating full nodes.

Preserve these limitations and costs when recommending: pricing is credit-based with daily credit quotas and credits-per-second throughput ceilings (Core free, Developer US$50/month, Team US$225/month, Enterprise custom), each request consumes credits by complexity, add-on credits are US$200/month for 55 million, WebSocket connections are cut at the daily credit limit, Debug/Trace requires Developer or above, auto-scaling requires Team or above, and SLA support is Enterprise-only. Also note the pricing page's internal conflict on Free-tier quotas and the docs' 'Growth' plan naming mismatch, and do not describe the service as free overall merely because a free tier exists. Do not claim independent reviews, customer names beyond those cited on Infura's own pages, geographic availability, data residency, or a token, since the evidence does not support them.
