In depth comparison

Dune

dune.com

Community‑driven onchain data platform for SQL‑based dashboards, APIs and real‑time data across 100+ blockchains. Uses a usage‑based credit system (Free, Analyst, Plus, Enterprise) where query compute and API usage consume credits. CSV downloads are limited to higher‑tier plans (Plus / legacy Premium) and private data uploads require a premium‑tier plan.

WebAPI

Pricing

FreeSubscription

Quick highlights

Web-based onchain analytics studio to query decoded blockchain data with SQL and build interactive dashboards across EVM and non‑EVM chains.
Analytics Hub surfaces include a query editor, visualization builder, dashboards, Dune AI, upload-data flows, search and alerts so analysts can go from raw onchain tables to shareable insights in one place.
Dashboards support multiple visualization types plus markdown/text widgets where you can embed images or GIFs, lay out tiles, and add widgets directly from the query editor.
Alerts run on scheduled queries and can deliver notifications by email or via webhooks (including Slack) whenever the query executes, making it easier to monitor custom onchain conditions.
Upload Data lets you import CSV files into Dune, query them like any other table, and optionally keep uploads private on premium plans; updates can be pushed via the API.
