Braintrust adds Topics to comparison table with credit-based pricing
What happened
Between the Jun 1, 2026 and Jun 8, 2026 captures of Braintrust's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Topics feature added to comparison table with credit-based pricing: Starter includes $10 credits/month, Pro includes $249 credits/month, then $0.06/mtok input and $0.40/mtok output token rates for both. Pulse files it as a product change (feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Aug 3, 2026) lists Pro at $249.
It lands 68 days after Braintrust's previous change, "Braintrust renames storage metric to processed data across plans" (Apr 1, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Braintrust Cuts Free Tier to Starter, Adds Pay-Per-Use Overages" (Apr 3, 2026) and "Braintrust drops trace spans metric, rebrands Free tier as Starter" (Mar 23, 2026).
