Grafbase
Grafbase scores 26/100 on xpay's Agent-Ready Index v2: partial pricing visibility; checkout requires assistance; a free entry path exists.
Grafbase pricing
Sales-led pricing
Pricing page only shows a free open‑source tier and a custom‑priced enterprise offering that requires contacting sales, so the model is classified as sales_only. No numeric prices are disclosed, limiting the ability to compute cost examples.

Pros and cons for AI agents
Observational summary written by xpay from the signals captured on 2026-05-06. Not a review of the product — only of its current pricing posture for agent buyers.- Pricing is publicly visible on an indexable page — agents can read tiers without scraping past auth.
- Every advertised tier is self-serve; no tier requires scheduling a call.
- A free tier exists, lowering the bar for an agent builder to prototype before committing budget.
- No per-unit price was advertised, so an agent has no way to estimate the cost of a single task.
- API documentation is gated or absent; an agent cannot inspect the integration surface without authentication.
- No /.well-known/ai-pricing.json or equivalent machine-readable pricing manifest is published — agents must rely on HTML scraping.
How Grafbase could lift its score
Add a per-unit price (e.g. $X / 1K calls) to the pricing page so an agent can compute its own cost before committing.
