Hello,

On a paid plan you can stop your database from going to sleep.

On the Free plan serverless (or app sleeping) is permanently enabled, but once you upgrade to paid you can disable that.

Gotcha I have one more follow up question and I swear it'll be the end. How much are you charged per hour. I know there is a base charge but I couldn't find the page that told me how much I would be getting charged based on the running services

Of course, we're happy to help!

Railway's pricing is based on a subscription plus resource usage. On the Hobby plan, which costs $5 per month, you get $5 worth of resource usage included. This means if your usage exceeds the $5 included credit, you'll only be charged for the additional usage beyond that. You can find detailed information about our pricing plans here.

If you're curious about how much specific services might cost based on their usage, it would be good to monitor your resource usage regularly. You can do this by in your account usage page, which helps track the resources your projects are consuming.

You can also set up usage limits to get alerts / perform specific actions when your usage reaches a certain point https://docs.railway.com/reference/usage-limits

Hope that helps!

Best,
The Railway Team
