Shopify storefront api new plan

Hi! I’ve spent a few months developing a custom shopify storefront only to discover, shopify recently changed their plan model that doesn’t allow the starter plan to use the storefront api / headless channel. This was never mentioned, even the headless channel app didn’t mention that it required a higher plan until i’ve finished my custom store and subscribed to the starter plan. Only thing i’ve found on this topic was this forum post (which said that every plan includes the api):

https://community.shopify.com/c/hydrogen-headless-and-storefront/storefront-api-pricing/m-p/1655871

What are my options? I’ve built everything on top of shopify, i’m going to get sick if i have to subscribe to the 24 usd plan.
