Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Anyword

  • Performance predictions, the feature the product is built around, are rationed: 50 a month on Starter at $49 and 100 on Data-Driven at $99
  • Data rows are capped at 50 on both published tiers, so custom data needs the Business plan
  • Starter is a single seat
  • Custom AI models and SSO require Business or Enterprise, both quote-only
  • The trial is 7 days and 2,500 words, and no refunds are offered

Azure Functions

  • Consumption plan free grant is capped at 1 million executions and 400,000 GB-seconds of resource consumption per month per subscription, billed per GB-second beyond that
  • The newer Flex Consumption plan's free grant is smaller still, at 250,000 executions and 100,000 GB-seconds per month
  • Premium plan avoids per-execution charges but bills continuously for allocated core seconds and memory regardless of invocation volume
  • Memory is rounded up to the nearest 128 MB and execution time to the nearest 1 ms for billing, so small overages round upward
