Neon Cost Stability

No spend quota on non-trial project

Part of the Cost & ops health check · fix arrives as a guide

What it is

A paid project has no spend quota configured.

Why it matters

Usage-based billing has no ceiling by default. A runaway query loop, a mistakenly-enabled always-on compute, or a branch left running can multiply the bill before the invoice arrives to tell you.

How to fix it

Set a monthly spend quota above your normal usage but below what would be a problem, and configure the usage alert so you hear about the trend rather than the total.
