About

Tinybird is a managed ClickHouse platform for building and operating real-time analytics applications. It combines hosted ClickHouse storage and query execution with streaming ingestion, connectors for Kafka, S3, GCS, DynamoDB, and URL-based sources, plus APIs that expose SQL queries as endpoints.

The free plan includes shared infrastructure, 0.25 vCPUs, 1 thread per request, 10 QPS maximum, 10 GB included storage, and community support. The platform is aimed at developers shipping dashboards, observability, web analytics, and other low-latency data products without managing ClickHouse clusters directly.

Free Tier Value

FTV score
Credit card Not required
Feature parity 55%

Tinybird’s pricing page explicitly shows a Free plan with no credit card required, but it is capped at 0.25 vCPUs, 10 QPS max, 10GB storage, 1 thread/request, 5 Kafka topics, 3 sink pipes, 3 data branches, 1 active copy job, and 3 active delete jobs. The cheapest paid plan is Developer at $49/month with 0.5 vCPUs, 15 QPS, and 25GB storage, so the free tier is a capped recurring free tier rather than unbounded free usage. Because the page does not provide a concrete free credit or trial, those are null; the conservative FTV is set to $0/month since the free plan is a limited sandbox and the page does not expose a direct dollar-equivalent allowance.
