Changelog 2024.04

Reintroduced Monthly Bot Plans

By popular demand, we’ve reintroduced Monthly Plans with a pretty generous amount of load testing each month up to an allocated number of Protocol Bots and/or Browser Bots. These bot plans were removed in February to make room for Monthly Fuel Plans, which offered discounted Loadster Fuel as a monthly subscription, but based on customer feedback they are available once again.

While Loadster Fuel continues to make sense for many customers and situations, there is also something to be said for the predictability of fixed monthly plans that are based on the maximum number of bots you can run rather than the overall amount of load testing. This is especially true if you’re unsure how much testing you’ll end up doing each month and need a consistent price you can budget for.
