- Challenges
- Lessons we learnt along the way.

If you Vibe code, and need to rate limit your app.
We have the most generous free tier at @unkey.com
- 150,000 requests that allow access to your application
If you get attacked and we rate limit them, none of that is counted towards your usage stats.
Enjoy 🫡
Go is superior.
The team built one of the most delightful HTTP libs with three core principles.
- Simple
- Clarity
- Efficient
It also makes testing easy or so they tell me.

- Usage based pricing is gone
- Tiered pricing started at $25
- Almost 5x cheaper
- No charge for overages
Go build some cool stuff

It costs money? Or it makes me money? Or it costs money but significantly less and better performance that in turns makes more money.
As a CEO I like money but…
Explain to me, like I'm a CEO why DeepSeek R-1 is the next big thing and not a hype train situation.
