The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Langfuse billing is metered per unit, where a unit is any trace, observation, or score sent to the platform; the free Hobby tier includes only 50,000 units per month before graduated per-unit charges apply, as of August 2026.; Baseten gPU compute is billed per minute by hardware class, from $0.01052 per minute on a T4 up to $0.16633 per minute on a B200, so costs vary by which accelerator a workload lands on, as of August 2026.
