Informational estimate only. Filebase is modeled against the Starter plan for IPFS image delivery: $7.50/month for 500 GB of image storage, 250 GB of IPFS egress, 10 million included Class B requests, $15/TB for additional storage, $0.015/GB for additional IPFS egress, $0.18/million for additional Class B requests, and unlimited image transformations with no separate transform fee. This model assumes a 500 KB source image stored on IPFS and a 180 KB WebP image delivered through URL parameters. ImageKit figures use the official self-serve plans checked on April 22, 2026: Lite is $9/month with 10 GB storage and 40 GB bandwidth, then $0.10/GB storage and $0.50/GB bandwidth; Pro is $89/month with 225 GB storage and 225 GB bandwidth, then $0.09/GB storage and $0.45/GB bandwidth. ImageKit documents standard image transformations as included by default, but notes that extensive expensive transformations may require a custom plan discussion. See ImageKit pricing.
