I remember in a previous company we migrated out of Plaid into SynapseFI because Plaid started charging a high price on a per connection request service (like, requesting a new bank connection for a new customer was quite expensive).
It seemed Plaid was focusing on the Mint like use cases: low number of users, allowing them to setup a Plaid connection one time to be used extensively subsequently. While our use case was more akin to: lots of users/authentications doing one time connections that may not be reused. (kind of what might be used for credit risk analysis, although the company was not doing that).
