WHY IT MATTERS
A rate card that changes every 9 days on average works more like a running record of model prices than a fixed price list, which helps buyers comparing per-token costs across providers. Watch whether MindsDB keeps adding models at this rate or shifts to restructuring its pricing instead.
BY THE NUMBERS
- 18 pricing changes in the last 90 days, averaging one every 9 days
- Second new model added in 2 days, after Kimi K3.1 Pro and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash on Oct 27
- Terra prices below recent additions Muse Wonder ($4/$20) and Gemini 4 Argon ($2/$10) per million tokens
- Credits & usage billing changes made up 12.1% of all 2,344 pricing moves tracked index-wide in 180 days
THEIR RATIONALE
MindsDB hasn't commented, and the addition looks like routine rate-card upkeep rather than a pricing decision: 18 pricing-page changes in the last 90 days, a 9-day average gap between changes, and this addition comes just 2 days after it added Kimi K3.1 Pro and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash.
THE SIGNAL
At $1 input and $5 output, Terra is priced below two of MindsDB's other recent additions, Meta's Muse Wonder 1.0 at $4/$20 and Gemini 4 Argon at $2/$10. Credits-and-usage billing is one of the index's busiest patterns: 283 changes across 200 companies in the last 180 days, 12.1% of everything tracked.
IN CONTEXT
This is MindsDB's second model addition in two days: Kimi K3.1 Pro and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash landed on Oct 27, following Gemini 4 Argon at $2/$10 per million tokens and Meta's Muse Wonder 1.0 at $4/$20. Terra, at $1 input and $5 output, is priced below both. MindsDB has made 18 pricing-page changes in the last 90 days, a 9-day average gap between them, so a new model here is catalog maintenance rather than a pricing event.
