About
Pixela is a REST API service for recording and tracking habits, effort, and other day-series activity data. Users create an account, define a graph, and post dated values through HTTP requests; the service then renders the data as a GitHub-like graph or badge.
The service is aimed at developers who want to automate habit tracking, deployment counts, weight changes, or similar metrics from scripts, CI/CD systems, smart speakers, iOS Shortcuts, or third-party integrations. The landing page describes the core API as free, while the pricing page shows that some supporter-only features are reserved for Patreon members, including logo or icon placement on the Pixela toppage.
- REST API for daily activity tracking
- GitHub-like graph and badge output
- Support for negative values
- Webhook and CI/CD integration use cases
- Patreon-gated supporter features
Free Tier Value
This free tier appears to be the default offering and the page says Pixela is free, but it also notes that some features are reserved for supporters. Because the page does not show any concrete quota, credit, or trial limit for the free offering, there isn’t a defensible monthly dollar estimate; the value is therefore treated as an uncapped free baseline with most core functionality available and only supporter-only extras held back.
