How does PictureThing stack up against Cloudflare?
Let's just say if you're using UploadThing to sling your users' images
around, we play nice—and we won't make it rain on your wallet.
(Sorry, Cloudflare. We still like your vibes.)
| Service | Transformations | Storage | Delivery | Extra setup | Total Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PictureThing | $10.00 | Included | Included | No | $10.00/month |
| Cloudflare Images | $22.50 | $5.00 | $1.00 | Must proxy subdomain*** | $28.50/month* |
* Cloudflare pricing assumes unique transformations, with storage and delivery costs charged per 100,000 images. Actual costs may vary based on usage patterns. Data from April 2025.
** PictureThing charges linearly based on usage. For example, 100,000 conversions cost $20/month (2x the cost of 50,000 conversions).
*** Important: Cloudflare Images requires images to be proxied through their service. If you're using external services like UploadThing to host your images, you'll need to proxy a subdomain through Cloudflare to make it work with your setup. PictureThing works directly with any image URL without requiring additional setup.
