Dune review

Dune provides structured, normalized blockchain data for teams working in digital asset markets. You can explore datasets covering assets and on-chain activity, or deliver data to your own environment. Its coverage includes stablecoin supplies, transfers and holders; prediction-market activity from Polymarket and Kalshi; tokenized real-world assets; and ERC-20 and native token balances, transfers and holders.

That makes Dune a data source for crypto research and internal analytics, rather than just a place to browse public dashboards. The product information lists connections to Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks and Amazon S3. Dune also says it includes built-in data quality controls and 24/7 enterprise-level support.

The free plan is limited to viewing public dashboards and researching across 100+ chains. Paid plans add credits for data use, exports or writes, while Plus adds private queries and API access. Enterprise access is custom-priced.

The main advantage is the breadth of normalized data categories in one product. Rather than relying only on raw chain activity, teams can explore stablecoin movements, token holders, prediction markets and tokenized assets across issuers, underlyings and chains. That breadth is useful if a switch would otherwise mean stitching together several data sources.

Dune also offers a route from exploration to a team’s own data stack. The listed delivery destinations include Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks and Amazon S3. Enterprise adds a Trino warehouse connector and dbt integration, according to the plan details. Built-in data quality controls and 24/7 enterprise-level support are listed as part of the offer, though the source does not spell out their exact scope.

The Free plan gives teams a low-commitment way to view public dashboards and research across 100+ chains, with unlimited collaborators. For paid users, Analyst starts at $75 monthly or $65 per month billed annually. Plus starts at $399 monthly or $349 per month billed annually, and lists private queries, web CSV downloads and 200 API calls per minute. Those are concrete options for teams that need to compare data access with their existing workflow before committing to a custom Enterprise deal.

The free plan is not a recurring data-access allowance: it includes no recurring query or API credits, and access to dashboards is view-only. Analyst includes 4,000 monthly credits, with 1 credit equal to 1,000 data points, plus 1 GB of storage. Exports cost 10 credits per MB and writes cost 3 credits per GB, with a 1-credit minimum. Those costs make it worth estimating export and write volume before moving regular workloads.

Plus includes 25,000 monthly credits, but the conversion changes to 1 credit per 5,000 data points. It provides 15 GB of storage and 200 API calls per minute; exports cost 2 credits per MB. Extra credits are billed separately: Analyst lists $1.875 per 100 credits monthly or $1.625 annually, while Plus lists $1.596 or $1.396. Free and trial accounts cannot buy extra credits, and extra-credit spending is subject to a user-set limit.

The larger pricing gap is what Dune does not publish. Datashare and premium dataset prices are not listed, and Enterprise pricing and overages are custom or unpublished. A 14-day free trial is listed, but the published pricing details do not specify which plan it applies to.

Dune has a free plan, but it includes no recurring query or API credits. Analyst costs $75 monthly, or $65 per month billed annually ($780 for the year). It includes 4,000 monthly credits and 1 GB of storage; exports use 10 credits per MB. Plus jumps to $399 monthly, or $349 per month billed annually ($4,188 for the year), for 25,000 monthly credits, 15 GB of storage, private queries and 200 API calls per minute. That is a substantial step up from Analyst, so estimate credit use before choosing Plus.

Extra credits cost $1.875 per 100 on Analyst monthly, or $1.625 billed annually. Plus rates are $1.596 monthly or $1.396 billed annually per 100 credits. Spending is capped by a user-configured limit, and Free and trial accounts cannot buy extra credits. Datashare and premium dataset prices are not published; Enterprise pricing and overages are custom or unpublished. The pricing information also lists a 14-day trial, but does not specify its plan.

Moving data into Dune may be simpler if your team already works in a supported warehouse: Dune lists delivery to Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks and Amazon S3. Enterprise also lists a Trino warehouse connector and dbt integration. The published information does not describe migration tools, timelines or how existing queries transfer, so scope that work with Dune rather than assuming a direct migration.

Before switching away, check how much of your workflow depends on Dune queries or paid datasets. Analyst and Plus charge credits for exports, and premium dataset and Datashare pricing is not published. The published information does not specify a bulk export process or what happens to stored work after cancellation. Those are questions to resolve before moving production workflows.
