Cons	Applications face centralised provider and outage exposure Proprietary APIs can increase vendor lock-in Pay As You Go charges scale with compute usage Automated agent wallets add transaction-control risk	Legacy bridge contract was exploited on Ethereum Mainnet in December 2025 Production-tier support SLAs require plans starting at $99 per month Guaranteed 12-hour SLA and custom infrastructure require the $1,499 monthly Pro plan Heavy reliance on managed relayer infrastructure can lead to vendor lock-in
