  • They diverge on capability: Flybits covers Contextual decisioning engine, Strapi covers REST API.

Where each one falls short

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

Flybits

  • Its output quality depends entirely on the completeness and accuracy of the underlying bank data it is fed, so a bank with fragmented or poor-quality customer data gets correspondingly weak personalisation.
  • The newer Agentic Banking capability is recent enough that long-term reliability, accuracy and customer trust data at scale are still limited compared with its longer-established contextual decisioning engine.
  • Pricing is not published, requiring a licensing negotiation per institution.
  • As with Meniga, it is a white-label layer rather than a consumer-facing brand, making independent reputation and reliability harder for a prospective bank client to verify directly.
  • Expanding from a rules-based personalisation engine into agentic AI interaction is a significant scope and complexity increase, and a bank evaluating it today should confirm which capabilities are mature and in production versus newly launched.

Strapi

  • Cloud pricing is per project, not per account, so a second project doubles the bill
  • Starter at $35 a month allows 100,000 API requests, and overage is $1.50 per 25,000
  • Extra bandwidth is $30 per 100 GB and extra asset storage $0.60 per GB
  • Backups start at the Pro plan, weekly, and only become daily at Business
  • An uptime SLA is Business only, at $450 a month per project
  • Additional environments cost $60 a month on Pro and $300 a month on Business
