Last I used Amplitude it was insanely expensive. Is that not still the case?

We’re working on it! Free up to 10M events, more to come later this year.

What would reasonably costed look like to you?

I need to remember that on HN, sometimes the founders of companies I'm talking about will respond :D. I should've used more words.

I don't really know what reasonably costed would've looked like for the time I used Amplitude (2018-2019), but I know that the value my team extracted from it was not commensurate with its cost. Whether that was because of overzealous assumptions on our part, or something else, I don't really know, but I know we signed up, used for a few months and then canceled/downgraded to a cheaper service whose name is escaping me.

I was mostly challenging the "Just use ____" notion of the commenter above, not really that Amplitude is worth the money for correctly-intentioned businesses. Regardless I appreciate the ask.

real-time, good, cheap. pick two.

At best it's pick two. Often you get one or none.
