Reviewer scorecard
“The free tier is incredibly generous. Multimodal capabilities and grounding with Google Search are unique advantages.”
“Hasura-powered GraphQL over Postgres with auth and storage. The GraphQL-first approach is powerful for complex data needs.”
“Google's track record of killing products is concerning, but the Gemini API is too useful to ignore.”
“If you want GraphQL, Nhost is the best BaaS option. Hasura's automatic GraphQL from Postgres is genuinely useful.”
“Google's data advantage and multimodal-first approach make Gemini a serious contender in the model race.”
“GraphQL adoption has plateaued. tRPC and REST are simpler for most use cases. Nhost's bet on GraphQL is risky.”
