Bit late to the party, but if anything this pricing makes me nervous that you won't be sustainable as a business (ie; pricing is too low, leaves you vulnerable to a few customers costing you way more than they pay).
In particular, I'm nervous that you could get charged through the nose for bandwidth from people who make absurdly too many DB calls or have an insane number of simulconnected realtime channels.
I'd much rather see limits that seem to me "functionally unlimited" than the world "unlimited" which means to me "there is a limit but we won't tell you what it is". Maybe you just have sane rate limits documented somewhere else which would probably do the trick.
It's also slightly unclear what timeframe the billing is for these (I assume $0.125/GB/mo for storage, 200GB storage transfer limit per... day?)
