Migration

One line changes

Both endpoints speak standard JSON-RPC over HTTPS and WebSocket, so ethers, viem and web3.py need no code changes. Everything we add is additive.

  • Our extra namespaces are additive — nothing you already call changes shape.
  • Run both in parallel and diff the responses before you cut over. Our free tier makes that cost nothing.

The difference

What ArrowRPC does not cover

Sourced gaps, not speculation.

01

Limited public documentation

Endpoint shape, method surface, pricing and limits are not published, so capability cannot be assessed without contact.

02

No data layer

RPC only.

Evaluate

Run us side by side

Do not switch on a comparison table. Point both at the same workload and compare the answers.

  1. Get a free key

    No card. Point a second RPC_URL at us and mirror your traffic.

  2. Diff the responses

    For standard eth_* calls the answers should be identical. If they are not, that is worth knowing about whichever provider is wrong.

  3. Ask for a position at a pre-split block

    This is the test that separates providers. Request a wallet's value at a block before a corporate action and check whether the multiplier applied is the one from that block or from today.

Moving from ArrowRPC

Endpoint shapes, auth differences, and the handful of behaviours worth checking before you cut over.

Switcher FAQ

The questions migrations actually raise.

Mechanics, gotchas, and tier gates, answered plainly. Anything missing lives in the migration guide.

Because ArrowRPC publishes less. We only make claims we can source, so a thin public footprint produces a thin comparison rather than invented detail.

Every claim links to ArrowRPC's own documentation and carries the date it was checked. We publish a case for choosing them, and we correct this page when they ship something new — a comparison that ages badly is worth less than no comparison.

RPC is free. Paid plans start at $50 per month for the data layer, with $25 for the first month.

Run us next to ArrowRPC.

A free key, a second RPC_URL, and the pre-split-block test. That is the whole evaluation.
