MindsDB hikes Blaze rates up to 183%, loosens Air free-tier cap
What happened
Between the Sep 14, 2026 and Sep 15, 2026 captures of MindsDB's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: MindsHub Blaze (Cerebras) rates rose (input $0.35→$0.99, output $0.75→$1.49, cached $0.35→$0.99/1M tokens); Air's free tier switched from a fixed 5M tokens/month cap to open-ended fair-use limits. Pulse files it as a pricing change (price increase) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 19, 2026) lists Pay as you go at $0.1 input tokens (MindsHub Air, per 1M) + $0.5 output tokens (MindsHub Air, per 1M).
It lands one day after MindsDB's previous change, "MindsDB adds MindsHub Blaze and GPT-OSS 120B to rate card, from $0.15 per 1M" (Sep 14, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "MindsDB adds DeepSeek V4 Flash, GLM 5.3 and GLM 5.3 Flash to the model rate card" (Sep 8, 2026), "MindsDB quietly deletes all mentions of its 5% platform fee, rates untouched" (Sep 4, 2026) and "MindsDB splits Free/Pro into Cowork + Inference API, adds 5% platform fee" (Aug 24, 2026). MindsDB has been tracked since 2026-03-01.
In the same window Huggingface and Alteryx also changed their AI & Machine Learning pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
“MindsHub” is the name MindsDB’s pricing page uses; Pulse files the change under MindsDB, the company it tracks.
