Getting started with Protocol Labs tools

Most of what Protocol Labs produces is open source, so the biggest saving is simply that the core tooling is free to use. You pay downstream providers only when you store or serve real data.

How to keep costs down

  1. Use the open source IPFS tools at no cost while you build.
  2. Choose a storage provider on the network when you go live.
  3. Watch retrieval and pinning, which is where real spend appears.

Worth knowing

This is foundational, developer facing technology rather than a plug and play host, so expect to assemble pieces. The upside is an open ecosystem with no lock in to a single vendor.
