This is a great idea and definitely useful, in particular this would make sense if it can take the build artifacts of recent github action builds and test them comprehensively, particularly to green-light a release. You can already pretty much do this using the standard agent tools and a set of test prompts so anything that makes it easier and repeatable is good.

The pricing sounds quite enterprisey, the risk there is that people will tend towards building their own.

Context is important for stuff like this, I've served 350M requests (with db interaction) for $49 via cloudflare before, but it all depends what you're trying to do.

Abstracted infrastructure like Kubernetes is expensive by default, so design has an impact.

I'll be honest, it feels a bit whiney. Many of us in tech are somewhere on the spectrum, but owning your problems is the first step to handling them and this doesn't feel like that, it feels more like blaming the diagnosis.

Godot is currently used as the 3D engine in the Tesla in-car UI, possibly also in their apps (?). It's cross platform and open source and has a pretty vibrant dev community.
