Our take

Pick Koyeb if teams who will start on Pro at $29/month plus the $10 included compute while they deploy a first service, then move to Scale at $299/month when they need 50 users, $100 included compute, and a 99.9% SLA. Pick Railway if app teams who will stay on Free $0 during the 30-day $5-credit trial (then $1/month, 1 project, 3 services) while they ship a first GitHub service, then land on Hobby at $5 minimum /
