I havn't heard of Dorch, though it seems like the pricing model is usage based? Not necessarily a bad thing (those prices seem generally cheap as well), but it's the same problem: your costs are going to grow as you scale, even if that scale is small.

Part of the choice to self host was to see if we could, but also the costs remain mostly fixed till the hardware maxes out, which we actually see as a feature for this stage of this particular side project.
