There was a blog post about it explaining this in detail: https://crew.co/backstage/dispatch/what-does-unsplash-cost/

That blog post explains the costs but not the revenues. How are they funded?
They wrote a post about that too https://crew.co/backstage/blog/how-side-projects-saved-our-s...

Unsplash is apparently crew.co's highest source of referrals, so i guess it's a loss leader

Some of that just seems insane. $1,000/month for logging?
Log analysis. Storing a dump of .log files is probably cheap (.log.gz cheaper) but actually using those logs is where the cost comes in.
Thank you!
