Snapshot
Continue to About ↓- What it does
- Alchemy is a developer platform providing blockchain APIs and backend infrastructure: JSON-RPC node access across 100+ chains, indexed data APIs (portfolio, transfers, prices, NFTs), and wallet and gas-management APIs.
More detail
- Teams use it to build onchain apps, payments and AI agents instead of running and maintaining their own nodes.
- Best for
- Development teams building wallets, DeFi apps, NFT marketplaces, onchain payments or AI agents who need RPC access and indexed blockchain data without operating their own nodes.
More detail
- Also fits enterprises that require SLAs, SSO, RBAC and dedicated infrastructure.
- Pricing
- Usage-metered SaaS.
More detail
- The Free plan costs $0 with 15 requests/second, 5 apps, 5 webhooks and 30M Compute Units (CU) per month.
- Pay As You Go costs $0.52 per 1M CUs, starts from 300 requests/second, and includes 30 apps and 100 webhooks
- throughput is priced separately at $160/month per additional 5,00
- Main limitation
- Non-developers or teams wanting a ready-made consumer app, since Alchemy is an API/SDK platform with no end-user interface.
More detail
- Also a poor fit for buyers who need fully published list pricing at large scale, as Enterprise pricing and throughput above the self-serve cap require a sales quote.

About
- Alchemy is a developer platform providing blockchain APIs and backend infrastructure: JSON-RPC node access across 100+ chains, indexed data APIs (portfolio, transfers, prices, NFTs), and wallet and gas-management APIs.
- Teams use it to build onchain apps, payments and AI agents instead of running and maintaining their own nodes.
What it helps with
- Running and maintaining blockchain nodes in-house is operationally heavy and creates downtime risk.
- Reading and writing data across many chains otherwise requires separate integrations per network.
- Querying indexed onchain data (balances, token prices, transfers, NFTs) is difficult without a dedicated data layer.
- Adding programmable wallets and gasless transactions to an app requires account-abstraction tooling.
- AI agents need scoped blockchain tooling and payment rails that are not standard in general-purpose developer stacks.
- Enterprises need SLAs, SSO, RBAC and dedicated single-tenant infrastructure that self-hosted setups rarely provide.
