G8KEPR delivers enterprise-grade API security at a fraction of the cost of traditional vendors.
| Provider | Starting Price | Included Requests | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
G8KEPR Starter | $99/mo | 1M requests | All-inclusive, no hidden fees |
| Kong Enterprise | $1,995/mo | 1M | Per instance/month + infrastructure costs |
| Apigee | $3,000/mo | 10M | Minimum commitment required |
| AWS API Gateway | $350/mo | 1M | Variable pricing + data transfer fees |
