The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Turso usage is metered across four separate dimensions at once (storage GB, rows read, rows written, and sync GB); the Free tier caps monthly rows written at just 10 million before per-million overage charges, as of August 2026.; Grist hosted plans run $10 to $29 per month per workspace, and the free self-hosted option requires running the software yourself to avoid that cost
