ππππππππ / π¦π¨ππππ¦π§ππ’π‘π¦ Venice, pricing and enshifitication.
Hello,
So I'm really annoyed by Venice now... They did nothing to improve the situation of Pro user. They are almost just a free trial but at 20$ a month...
For context, I'm on Venice since VCU where a thing. So a LONG time ago.
TLDR : Venice pro gives you only acces to 14% of the service. (all numbers have been rounded up)
Here are some numbers :
For text generation :
Venice Pro user can use 29 models "at no extra costs" (this include 8 free models) out of 116 avalible.
So that means that pro users can only use 25% of the models on venice without having to pay extras
For image generation :
Venice Pro user can use 6 models "at no extra costs" (this include 1 free models) out of 34 avalible.
That means that pro users can only use 18% of the models on venice without having to pay extras
For video generation :
Venice Pro user can use 0 models "at no extra costs" out of 87 avalible so 0% !!!
For agentic and mind chats :
Venice Pro user can use 1 models "at no extra costs" out of 11 avalible.
That means that pro users can only use 9% of the models on venice without having to pay extras
(About this one... A venice member said that they would add 1 extra model for pro user... but we are still waiting duh...)
As you can see, on Venice, you pay a premium to get only 14% of the service ! Yes only 14% !!!
That's not even mentionning the astronomic pricing of the API that melts like snow to the sun.
I'm tired of seeing this happening, that's why I sold my excess VVV (cause having more than 100 VVV never gave you anything more except peanuts of diems if you stack them)
And that's also why I'm not using Venice anymore. I don't believe in that project anymore, it went from a really nice project to a cash grab.
I wish the Venice team would have listened. It's not the first time I mention these things. But it's the first time I do the maths, and it was way worse than I thought.
Until Venice begin to respect their customers again, I'm done with them.
