Real-Time (WSS)

Real-time delivery over WebSockets (WSS) is priced flat — not CU-based. WSS is available on a custom plan; pricing starts at $1,500/month based on chains, datasets, and connection requirements. Low-latency delivery is a core strength of BlockDB, supported efficiently via WebSockets (WSS) including Protobuf.

Bulk Export (SFTP, S3, Azure & more)

Full historical data is available both through the API (CU-based) and via direct bulk delivery. For large backfills or ongoing dataset syncs, bulk delivery is significantly cheaper than querying through the API — you pay for the dataset and delivery method, not per-row CU costs. Pricing is customized for each customer.

Pricing Factors

  • Datasets: Which datasets you need (blocks, transactions, logs, pricing, etc.)
  • Chains: Number of blockchain networks (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, etc.)
  • Delivery Method: SFTP, S3, Azure Blob Storage, Snowflake Share, Redshift Share, BigQuery, or Databricks Delta Share
  • Delivery Frequency: One-time export, daily, weekly, or monthly snapshots
  • Data Volume: Historical depth and time range requirements
Each bulk delivery configuration is unique. We work with you to design a solution that matches your data requirements, budget, and infrastructure preferences.
