Mapbox simplifies pricing, drops legacy km2 tileset tiers
What happened
Between the Jun 15, 2026 and Jun 22, 2026 captures of Mapbox's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Pricing page 'Tilesets' tab renamed to 'Data'; legacy km2-based tileset processing tiers (10m/1m/30cm/1cm) removed and replaced with simplified Custom Data Tileset Processing and Hosting sections. Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Sep 28, 2026) lists Tileset Processing at $0.01 Monthly Active User, Tileset Hosting at $0.01 Monthly Active User, Japan Weather Layers at $0.25 Monthly Active User, Vector Tiles API at $0.25 Monthly Active User and Raster Tiles API at $0.25 Monthly Active User.
It lands 41 days after Mapbox's previous change, "Mapbox expands web map load tiers to 5M with new volume pricing" (May 12, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Mapbox Launches Indoor Map Tiles API With Free Airport Floor Plans" (Apr 27, 2026). Mapbox has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window Google also changed their Software Development & Testing pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
