What it does
  • Unkey is a developer platform with two separately sold products: Compute, which deploys apps from a GitHub repo or container image to AWS with a global gateway, preview environments and rollbacks, and API Management, which issues and verifies API keys and enforces rate limits and quotas on any backend.
More detail
  • The two can be used alone or together.
Best for
  • Small-to-mid API teams and startups that want container hosting, an edge gateway, API-key issuance and rate limiting from one vendor with a low-cost self-serve entry point.
More detail
  • Also fits teams adding keys and metering to an API they sell to third parties.
Pricing
  • Two separate price sheets.
More detail
  • Compute hosting is paid with no free tier: Starter is $0 then $5/mo (currently $5 off the first month), Pro $20 then $25/mo, Business $45 then $50/mo, Enterprise custom.
  • Each plan includes usage credits ($5, $25, $50) and is billed on top for compute, storage, egress and a
Main limitation
  • Teams that require EU-only data residency with regional failover, since Frankfurt is the only European region and an EU-only deployment has no redundancy.
More detail
  • Also a poor fit for buyers needing a developer portal or log drains today, or a free tier for hosting.

What it helps with

Capabilities

A practical view of what is available and where limitations apply.

OfferingAvailableDetail
Deploy from GitHub or container image YesConnect a repo for deploys on push, or run Docker containers
Preview environment per PR and instant rollback YesPromote a tested version; the previous production instance stays running for 30 minutes
OpenAPI breaking-change checks YesOpenAPI diffs flag breaking changes before production
API key issuance, verification and revocation YesWorks on any backend, independent of Unkey Compute
Rate limiting and usage quotas YesLimits per IP, user or key, enforced at the edge gateway
Multi-region routing and autoscaling Limited1-5 regions, 4 AWS regions today; all regions must share the same replica bounds, so per-region autoscaling is unsupported
Observability (request logs, runtime logs, metrics, build logs) YesRetention is 3/7/14 days for logs by plan tier and 7/14/30 days for audit logs; queries beyond plan range error out
Rejected requests in request logs NoPolicy-blocked or unroutable requests are not logged, so logs can undercount caller traffic
Hosted developer portal (AIO) NoMarked coming soon on the official site
Log drains NoNot available on any current plan; contact support
