Alchemii vs CoinFactory App: Solana Compared (2026)

Alchemii and coinfactory.app both charge a 0.2 SOL service fee to mint an SPL token, so the headline price is a tie — the comparison turns on breadth versus depth, and on what each tool bills you for the authority work that follows the mint. CoinFactory is a multi-chain generator: 17-plus chains, 121 generator pages, one dashboard. Alchemii does Solana only. The divergence appears in the line items. CoinFactory bills 0.1 SOL to revoke mint authority and 0.1 SOL to revoke freeze authority as separate paid actions; Alchemii mints with freeze authority null from initialization, so that revoke never exists as a purchase. A memecoin with both authorities settled costs roughly 0.32 SOL on Alchemii against 0.4 SOL plus network cost on CoinFactory.

Bias disclosure, before anything else: I am the founder of Alchemii. This page lives on our domain and it exists to win a search result. The way I have tried to make it useful anyway is to name every CoinFactory URL I read, quote their numbers rather than paraphrase them, and put their genuine advantages in bold rather than in a footnote.

One scoping note. The bare brand query "coinfactory" belongs to an unrelated idle mobile game. This article is about coinfactory.app, the Next.js multi-chain token generator — nothing to do with the game.

All CoinFactory figures read live on 2026-08-04 from coinfactory.app/en/generator/solana/spl-token, /solana/liquidity/create-pool, /solana/revoke-mint, /meme-coins/solana, /terms-of-service and their XML sitemap.

The pricing question, itemized

Headline against headline, it is a tie. Both tools put a 0.2 SOL service fee under the create button. Two details change the picture.

First, what the 0.2 SOL includes. On Alchemii the 0.2 SOL is 0.1 base plus 0.1 for the freeze-authority setting, which is locked on and cannot be switched off. That is a product decision, not an upsell: the mint is initialized with no freeze authority at all, so nobody — including us, including you — can ever freeze a holder's account. On CoinFactory the 0.2 SOL buys the mint, and Revoke Freeze Authority sits below it as a 0.1 SOL checkbox their own form labels "Recommend!".

Add the mint-authority revoke that almost every memecoin wants, and the two bills separate:

Configuration	Alchemii	CoinFactory
Bare mint, no authority work	~0.21 SOL all-in	0.2 SOL + network
Freeze settled	~0.21 SOL all-in (included)	0.3 SOL + network
Mint + freeze settled	~0.32 SOL all-in	0.4 SOL + network
Mint + freeze + custom address	~0.42 SOL all-in	0.5 SOL + network

Second, whether 0.2 SOL is the price or a promotion. On 2026-08-04 their Solana form rendered the fee as a struck-through 0.5 beside an active 0.2, with a promocode field alongside. The add-liquidity tool does the same: 0.2 struck through, 0.1 active. I cannot tell from outside whether the list price is real or decorative. What I can say is that our number is not staged that way — the cost calculator and the create form show the same running total, with no crossed-out anchor price anywhere in the flow.

Neither tool can go below the protocol floor. Mint rent, the Metaplex metadata PDA and its flat protocol fee, the associated token account and signature fees come to roughly 0.0191 SOL on any Solana token regardless of who builds the transaction — account rent and signature cost are both documented. Everything above that line is service fee on both sides; the cost to create a Solana token breakdown itemizes the whole category.

We are not the cheapest Solana token creator and will not claim to be — budget tools start around 0.05 SOL. Against CoinFactory we are level on the bare mint and cheaper once authorities are settled. That is the whole of the price argument.

The 7-axis scorecard

Same seven axes as the Alchemii vs Smithii comparison, deliberately, so the two head-to-heads are readable against each other.

Axis	Alchemii	CoinFactory	Winner
Solana creation cost	~0.21 SOL all-in, freeze included	0.2 SOL + 0.1 per authority revoked	Level on a bare mint, Alchemii once you revoke
Post-launch tooling	Revoke, metadata, mint, multi-send, airdrop, LP create/remove/burn, audit checker	Revoke ×2, metadata, immutable, mint, burn, multisender, LP create/add/remove, freeze/unfreeze, OpenBook, token page	Level — comparable breadth, different gaps
LP integration (Raydium)	Native CPMM pool + dedicated LP burn	Native pool + add/remove; no LP-burn flow	Alchemii
Authority control	Freeze null at initialization, mint revoke in the same signature	Both revokes sold as separate 0.1 SOL actions	Alchemii
Multi-chain support	Solana only	17+ chains from one dashboard	CoinFactory
Multilingual coverage	English only	4 non-English locales (28 URLs)	CoinFactory
Trust transparency	Named engineer, security page, open cost dataset	No team page, no legal entity, ToS predates Solana support	Alchemii

Four to Alchemii, two to CoinFactory, one level. That is the same shape as the 8-platform launchpad scorecard, where CoinFactory finishes at 26 of 35 against Alchemii's 30 — a four-point gap, not a rout, and the gap is entirely in the columns a Solana-only operator cares about.

The post-launch row earns its "level" honestly — I went in expecting to win it and did not. CoinFactory's Solana manager exposes thirteen standalone tools, two of which Alchemii has no equivalent for: freeze accounts and unfreeze accounts. Moot on a token we minted, since the authority is null; not moot on a token you inherited authority over. What they have no equivalent for is LP burn as a first-class flow, and an audit checker that reads a mint's trust state back to you. Different holes, different places.

Where CoinFactory genuinely wins

Multi-chain, and it is not close. Their sitemap carries 121 /generator/[chain] URLs and 300 /tools/[chain]/[action] URLs. The footer lists Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Linea, Blast, Sonic, Abstract, Unichain, Robinhood Chain and Sepolia, plus Solana, TON Jettons, Sui and Tron TRC-20. If your token needs to exist on four chains, doing that through one interface is worth real operator time, and Alchemii cannot offer it. Solana-only is a design choice with a cost.

Free devnet and testnet minting. Their Solana form carries a network selector, and their FAQ states you can create any number of SPL tokens for free on devnet or testnet. This is the advantage I would most like to have. Rehearsing a launch — image URI, decimals, supply, the exact metadata string — for zero SOL before touching mainnet is good practice, and Alchemii's create flow is mainnet-only. First token? Make your mistakes on their devnet, then decide where to spend.

Four non-English locales. German, Spanish, Hindi and Russian — though calibrate it: 28 URLs out of 1,887, roughly 1.5% of the site, all blog posts rather than tool interfaces, with the tools themselves rendering in English. Smaller than Smithii's footprint, and thinner than "four languages" sounds. Still more than our zero.

Sheer surface area. 1,887 sitemap URLs against our 98. Some of it is substance; a lot is not — 1,210 are /chainlist/* directory entries and 80 are blog posts. Which brings us to where the two products diverge most.

Depth: 194 words against 2,700

CoinFactory's Solana memecoin landing page at /meme-coins/solana renders 194 words in total — and that count includes the header, the entire footer navigation, the chain list and the copyright line. The unique body copy is three sentences and a button, in full: a headline, "Introducing Meme Coin Generator for Solana – Your one-stop platform for creating hilarious and unique meme coins!", a sentence about joining the meme coin revolution, and "Create memecoin".

Alchemii's equivalent page renders about 2,700: supply and decimals defaults with the reasoning attached, what the mint-authority toggle does to your Solscan page, why the metadata image URI decides whether Phantom renders your logo, what happens after the mint, and an itemized fee table.

Word count is not a virtue on its own; plenty of long pages are padding. It matters here because a token launch carries about a dozen decisions — supply, decimals, authority state, pool size, fee tier, when to burn LP — and each has a wrong answer that costs real SOL. A 194-word page cannot tell you that six decimals is the memecoin convention, or that a pool under roughly 5 SOL of depth can be moved 40-60% by one exit.

That is the programmatic-SEO trade, read honestly. CoinFactory built one template and multiplied it across 28 chain slugs in their generator directory — six of which are testnets: it ranks, it converts, and per page it says almost nothing. We went the other way, which is why we cover exactly one chain.

The OpenBook question, which is a real operator trap

CoinFactory sells an OpenBook Market creator for Solana at /solana/market/create: 0.1 SOL service fee, and their own FAQ on that page states "With basic options total fee is about 2.9 SOL."

Here is the thing. An OpenBook Market ID was a requirement of Raydium's legacy AMM v4 program. Raydium's documentation table still lists OpenBook dependency as "Yes" for AMM v4 and "None" for CPMM — the program has since dropped it, but take the docs row as the conservative reading — and describes CPMM as cheaper to create, Token-2022 compatible, and the recommended default for permissionless listings. Their migration page states it plainly: AMM v4 pool creation is more expensive and requires OpenBook market setup.

CoinFactory's own Solana pool creator is labelled a "Raydium V3 Pool Creator" — the CPMM path, which needs no market ID. So the platform offers a pool creator that does not require OpenBook alongside a ~2.9 SOL OpenBook tool one nav item above it, with nothing on either page explaining which your launch needs. Not deceptive — the tool is real and some legacy flows still want a market ID. But an operator working down the tool list in order can spend roughly 2.9 SOL on a step their pool will never read.

Alchemii's pool creation targets CPMM and never asks for a market ID. If you are working through how to add liquidity on Raydium with any tool, check which pool program it builds for before you buy anything upstream of it — the full accounting of what a market ID costs and when it is still required is in do you need an OpenBook Market ID.

Budget note: pool creation costs money beyond your liquidity. Our cost guidance budgets ~0.4 SOL of non-refundable rent for the pool's own accounts. CoinFactory's create-pool page quotes less — 0.1 service + 0.18 Raydium + 0.02 gas, a 0.3 SOL minimum — and Raydium's CPMM docs currently say "about 0.2 SOL for pool creation rent, token-account creation, and priority fees." Three sources, three numbers. Budget for the highest, be pleased if you spend less, and check your own wallet balance before and after.

Trust surface: the widest gap on the board

This is where the comparison stops being about features.

CoinFactory's Terms of Service (coinfactory.app) is dated 20 October 2023. It states that "Coin Factory operates as an interface exclusively on the Ethereum blockchain" and that all platform transactions "are conducted in ERC-20 tokens based on the Ethereum blockchain." The word Solana does not appear anywhere in the 900-word document body — the only two hits on that page are footer navigation links. Neither does a company name, a registered address, a jurisdiction of incorporation or a governing-law clause; the single use of "jurisdiction" in the text refers to yours, in the age-of-majority clause. The contact method is a support email. The Privacy Policy carries the same date and the same Ethereum-only framing, and names MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet and WalletConnect as the wallet integrations — no Solana wallet at all.

None of that makes the software malicious. The Solana generator does what it says: it builds a standard SPL mint against the Token Program and hands it to your wallet to sign, non-custodially — the same architecture we use, and the one the SPL reference implementation describes. What it means is narrower and still worth knowing: if something goes wrong with a Solana mint you paid for, the document you agreed to is about a different blockchain, and there is no named counterparty in it.

One more thing on the site worth knowing before you decide: 28 /social-booster URLs in their sitemap selling followers, likes, retweets, views, reactions and comments across eight platforms — Twitter, Telegram, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn and Discord. A stated product, not an inference. Buying engagement for a token launch is a bad trade specifically — the follower-to-engagement mismatch is among the first things an experienced trader checks. There is also a 30% affiliate revenue share on creation fees advertised on every Solana tool page: normal for the category, but worth remembering the next time you meet a recommendation in the wild.

For contrast — and as a claim to check, not accept: Alchemii publishes a named engineer with a public LinkedIn profile, a custody and security page, an open launch-cost dataset, and a token audit checker that grades our own tokens as harshly as anyone else's. Verify both sides rather than taking either at its word. Every claim on both sites resolves to something checkable on Solscan or DexScreener once the mint lands.

Which one to pick

Pick CoinFactory if you are shipping the same token on Solana plus EVM chains from one dashboard; if you want to rehearse the flow on devnet before spending anything; if you need freeze/unfreeze account tooling; or if German, Spanish, Hindi or Russian documentation removes real friction for you.

Pick Alchemii if Solana is the only chain you care about. In order of how much SOL they save you: freeze authority is never set rather than sold back for 0.1 SOL; the mint-authority revoke rides in the same signed transaction as the mint instead of being a second visit and a second fee; LP burn is a first-class flow rather than a generic burn box; and the pages explaining the decisions are long enough to contain them. Start at the memecoin flow.

Pick neither if you have zero upfront capital and want bonding-curve distribution — that is a different fork entirely, covered in Alchemii vs Pump.fun.

For a wider field than these two, the best Solana token creator comparison scores seven tools on six axes, and the side-by-side comparison table lines the main options up feature by feature. A reality check that applies whichever you pick: the creation tool is not what decides whether a token survives. Across the launches we track, 87% of Solana memecoins are effectively dead inside 24 hours, and authority state plus pool depth predict far more than the logo on the form. Came here for the earnings angle? The honest version is how meme coin creators make money — read it before you budget anything.

One thing true of both: creation is not lock-in. A CoinFactory-minted token is an ordinary SPL mint, so Alchemii's mint-authority revoke, metadata update and multi-send tools accept it — and the reverse holds. You are choosing a create flow, not a platform you are stuck inside.

Limitations

What this article does not cover, honestly:

• CoinFactory's EVM tooling quality. I scored their multi-chain axis on existence and page count, not on whether the Base or Tron flows are any good. I have not run a paid mint on any of their EVM chains. If EVM is your actual need, this article gives you no evidence about it.
• Their Pump.Fun Launcher, Pons launcher and Launchpad (Beta). Three products in their footer I did not evaluate. They may change the picture for bonding-curve launches.
• Support responsiveness. I did not open a ticket with support@coinfactory.app. The trust-transparency score reflects published surface only.
• Whether the 0.5 SOL list price was ever charged. I observed the struck-through presentation on 2026-08-04. I cannot see their pricing history.
• The Raydium pool-rent discrepancy. Three sources give three numbers (~0.4, 0.3, ~0.2 SOL) and I did not resolve it with a fresh mainnet pool creation for this article. Verify against your own wallet.
• Token-2022. Both tools default to the classic Token Program. Transfer fees, confidential transfers and metadata pointers are out of scope here, and Token-2022 support varies by pool program.
• CEX listings and compliance. Neither platform affects Binance, Coinbase or CoinGecko listing outcomes, and neither does KYC or regulated issuance.
• Anything after 2026-08-04. Both sites ship changes. Every figure above has a date attached for exactly that reason.

FAQ

Is coinfactory.app legit?

It is a real, working, non-custodial token creator, not a scam front — the Solana generator at coinfactory.app builds a standard SPL mint and you sign it in your own wallet. Two caveats a buyer should know. Its Terms of Service is dated 20 October 2023 and states the service operates exclusively on Ethereum with ERC-20 tokens; the word Solana does not appear in it once. And there is no named legal entity, jurisdiction, or team page anywhere on the site — support is a single email address. Working software, thin accountability surface.

How much does CoinFactory charge for a Solana token compared to Alchemii?

Read live on 2026-08-04: CoinFactory's Solana generator shows a 0.2 SOL service fee, displayed as a discount from a struck-through 0.5 SOL list price, with Revoke Mint Authority and Revoke Freeze Authority each billed as a separate 0.1 SOL add-on. Alchemii is 0.2 SOL, about 0.21-0.22 SOL all-in with network rent, and freeze authority is never set on the mint at all, so there is nothing to revoke and nothing extra to pay. Level on the bare mint. A token with mint and freeze both settled is roughly 0.32 SOL on Alchemii against 0.4 SOL plus network on CoinFactory.

Does CoinFactory support Solana liquidity pools?

Yes. CoinFactory ships a Raydium pool creator, an add-liquidity tool and a remove-liquidity tool for Solana. Its create-pool page quotes a 0.1 SOL service fee and warns you need at least 0.3 SOL, broken out as 0.1 service plus 0.18 Raydium plus 0.02 gas. What it does not ship is a dedicated LP-burn flow — the generic Burn Tokens tool will burn any SPL mint including an LP token, at 0.1 SOL, but there is no LP-specific screen or burn-proof surface. That step is where Alchemii's liquidity tooling is deeper.

Which is better for a Solana-only launch, Alchemii or CoinFactory?

Alchemii, on the axes that decide a Solana launch: authority hygiene priced into the base fee rather than sold per-revocation, a dedicated LP burn tool, a token audit checker, and a Solana landing page carrying roughly 2,700 rendered words against CoinFactory's 194. CoinFactory wins outright if you are shipping the same token on Solana plus EVM chains from one dashboard, or if you want to rehearse on devnet before paying for anything. That devnet rehearsal is a genuine advantage Alchemii does not match.

What does CoinFactory do that Alchemii does not?

Four things, and three of them are real advantages. A free devnet and testnet mode so you can rehearse a launch at zero cost. Token creation on 17-plus chains from one dashboard, including Ethereum, Base, BSC, TON, Sui and Tron. Freeze-accounts and unfreeze-accounts tools, which are moot on an Alchemii mint because freeze authority is null from initialization. And a social-booster storefront selling followers, likes, views and comments across eight platforms — which is a thing the site does, not an advantage.

Do I need an OpenBook Market ID to launch a Solana token?

Almost certainly not. Raydium's documentation table still lists OpenBook dependency as Yes for the legacy AMM v4 program and None for CPMM, and calls CPMM the recommended default for permissionless listings — and the AMM v4 program itself has since had that dependency stripped out, so the docs row is the more conservative of the two readings. Alchemii's pool creation targets CPMM, and CoinFactory's own Solana pool creator is labelled a Raydium V3 pool creator. CoinFactory still sells a separate OpenBook Market creator whose FAQ puts the total at about 2.9 SOL. If a tool routes you through that step for a new memecoin pool in 2026, ask which pool program it is actually building for.

Can I use Alchemii's tools on a token I created with CoinFactory?

Yes. Mint authority revocation, metadata updates, multi-send, liquidity creation and LP burn all operate on the mint address, not on a platform account. A token minted through coinfactory.app is an ordinary SPL mint on the Token Program, so Alchemii's post-launch tools accept it as long as your connected wallet still holds the relevant authority. The reverse is equally true. Creation platform is not a lock-in.

Is CoinFactory's 0.2 SOL Solana fee permanent?

There is no way to know from outside, and the page itself suggests caution. On 2026-08-04 the create form rendered the service fee as a struck-through 0.5 next to an active 0.2, alongside a promocode field — the presentation of a promotional price rather than a list price. Their add-liquidity tool shows the same pattern, 0.2 struck through against 0.1 active. Treat 0.2 SOL as today's price and re-read the form before you sign, which is good practice on any of these tools including ours.

Gary Zhao is the founder of Alchemii, a Solana token creation and liquidity tooling platform. He has launched memecoins and utility tokens on Solana mainnet since 2022, and maintains the fee schedule that prices Alchemii's own create flow — which is why this comparison itemizes both sides line by line instead of quoting headline numbers. Every CoinFactory figure above was read off coinfactory.app's live pages on 2026-08-04, and the exact URLs are named so you can re-check them. If a number here is wrong, it is checkable, and he would rather be corrected on a specific line than defend the comparison in the abstract.
