Neon reframes its every-plan feature grid around the backend suite
What happened
Between the Oct 26, 2026 and Nov 2, 2026 captures of Neon's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: "Included on every plan" grid reframed around the backend suite (Branching, Data API, Object Storage and Functions, Compliance); plan cards and comparison table unchanged. In detail: "Included on every plan" grid reframed around the backend suite: Branching, Data API, Object Storage and Functions, and Compliance (HIPAA on Scale) tiles replace the Read replicas, Monitoring and GDPR/ISO tiles. Plan cards and comparison table unchanged. Pulse files it as a product change (positioning) with a neutral direction. The current page lists Launch at $0.11 per CU-hour + $0.20 per GB-month (history/instant restore storage) and Scale at $0.20 per GB-month (history/instant restore storage) + $0.35 per GB-month (database storage).
It lands 14 days after Neon's previous change, "Neon adds Realtime (Beta) to Free, Launch and Scale plans, free during beta" (Oct 19, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Neon doubles Free plan storage to 1 GB per project, up from 0.5 GB" (Oct 5, 2026) and "Neon: spending limits replaced with alert-only notifications" (Aug 17, 2026). Neon has been tracked since 2026-04-26.
In the same window Vercel, Digitalocean, Google Cloud and Netlify also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
