Is Galileo or Koyeb better?

Neither clearly leads. Galileo starts at Free and Koyeb at $29/month, and user ratings are close enough to be indistinguishable. Choose on capability and platform support.

Which is cheaper, Galileo or Koyeb?

Galileo has a free tier; the other does not. Paid plans start at Free for Galileo and $29/month for Koyeb.

Does Galileo or Koyeb run on more platforms?

Galileo runs on web, api. Koyeb runs on Web, CLI, API.

Can I use Galileo for free?

Yes. Galileo has a free tier, so you can try it without paying. Koyeb starts at $29/month.

What is Galileo best used for?

Galileo is most often used for evaluating rag and agent applications before production release, monitoring live genai applications for failures and drift, applying real-time guardrails without custom integration work, reducing evaluation costs using distilled luna judge models. Of those, evaluating rag and agent applications before production release and monitoring live genai applications for failures and drift are not what Koyeb is typically brought in for.

What can Galileo do that Koyeb cannot?

Galileo covers Pre-built evaluations, Ground truth capture, Luna models, Agent behavior analysis. Koyeb covers Serverless containers, GPU support, Global distribution, Multi-protocol support.

Where each one falls short

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

Galileo

The free plan is limited to 5,000 traces per month, which is quickly outgrown by production workloads.
Real-time guardrails and unlimited trace capacity are reserved for the custom-priced Enterprise tier.
Pro plan pricing scales with trace volume, so costs can grow unpredictably as usage increases.
On-premises deployment requires an Enterprise contract rather than being available self-serve.

Koyeb

Pricing starts at $29/month with additional compute costs
GPU compute is expensive at $0.75-$2.50 per hour
Limited customization for infrastructure configuration
