Where each one falls short

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

Parabola

  • The Basic plan allows 1 user and 1,000 credits with limited AI
  • No price is published for either the self serve or the business tier
  • Credits are consumed when agents run, and further credits are bought pay as you go
  • Role based access control, SSO, version history and SLAs all sit on the unpriced business plan

Superblocks

  • Teams plan is limited to just 1 hosted app by default, with additional apps costing $10/app/month.
  • Usage is capped by Governed Agent Units, adding a metering layer beyond a flat per-seat price.
  • Advanced deployment options like VPC and Cloud-Prem are reserved for the custom-priced Enterprise tier.
  • No published free tier, only a 14-day trial, making it harder to evaluate at no cost long-term.
