koigrid vs Neon
Managed Postgres HA at a flat rate — an alternative to Neon.
Neon is serverless Postgres billed by usage. koigrid gives you dedicated HA Postgres (leader + standby, automatic failover) at a flat rate, fully agent-native.
Same setup — what you actually pay
You save ~$52/mo (81%)
For a managed HA Postgres cluster (failover, pooling, backups). Estimate from public pricing; koigrid is flat-rate with egress included. (prices reviewed 2026-07-03)

What koigrid improves
Flat, dedicated
Dedicated resources at a flat price, not metered compute.
HA by default
Leader + standby with automatic failover.
Branching to test safely
Branch production to try a migration in isolation, reset it back, ephemeral TTL — like Neon, on standard Postgres you can take anywhere (no lock-in).
Least-privilege roles
Manage scoped Postgres roles per database, all by API. Passwords never hit logs.
Agent-native
Everything by API for your agent.
Frequently asked questions
Is koigrid cheaper than Neon?
koigrid is flat-rate with bandwidth included — no per-GB egress or per-request fees. For a comparable setup you usually pay a lot less (see the estimate above).
Can I migrate from Neon without lock-in?
Yes. koigrid runs on portable primitives — standard PostgreSQL, S3-compatible storage and containers — so you can move in (or out) whenever you want.
Where is my data hosted?
In data centers in the EU, on servers we run ourselves. The privacy policy says exactly where.
Can I run everything from an API or an AI agent?
Yes — koigrid is API-first and agent-native: every action has an API and a scoped token, with llms.txt and OpenAPI so an LLM can operate it end to end.
