* Some cluster tools carry their own monthly price, shown before you connect them. See What costs extra below.

Compute and storage are for your own apps and tools. The platform's own services in your space (the agents, their builds, their workspace, Redis) run on top of that and do not count against it. The research tools (Ghost Browser, Research, Branding and the Master) come with Solo and Studio and have their own reserved room on top of the plan, so you can always connect them, however full your apps are; Ghost Browser storage that grows past its starting size uses the plan's storage. The trial includes the builder only. Each copy of an app has a fixed size with a hard cap (0.05 vCPU and 256 MB reserved, at most 0.5 vCPU and 1 GB). An app or tool that needs more than your plan has left asks you to move up a plan or rent a machine first. Autoscaling adds copies within your plan, or onto rented machines when machine autoscaling is on.

Every account starts on the 14 day trial, and no card is asked for. The trial is the real product with smaller limits: 2 apps, 50 built-in AI messages for the whole trial, and cluster tools that run in your own space. The research tools, the dedicated cluster, and the tools that need it, start at Solo. When the trial ends you pick a plan, or the workspace is frozen with your files kept.

Solo and Studio are flat monthly prices, billed in advance through Stripe. Change plan from the dashboard and the new allowance applies immediately.

If you need more than Solo gives you

Rent your own machine instead. It starts at €8.78 a month for the cheapest server in the catalogue, plus a €9 monthly platform fee, both billed monthly. Nothing else on it competes with your apps, and you can stop it from the dashboard whenever you like: it keeps running to the end of the month already paid, then it is removed and billing stops. See Nodes.

What happens when the trial ends

We write to you 3 days before and again the day before, so it is never a surprise. If no plan is chosen the workspace is frozen: the apps stop, and every file, database and volume is kept exactly as it was. Pick a plan at any point in the next 30 days and everything comes back untouched. We write twice more before anything is deleted.

How AI messages are counted

A message is one turn you send to an agent on the built-in AI: 50 during the trial, 200 a month on Solo, 800 on Studio. Connect your own OpenRouter key or Ollama endpoint and messages are not counted at all, on every plan including the trial. You pay your provider directly and we never meter it or add a margin. Your usage is shown on the dashboard, not discovered on an invoice.

If you reach us through the Claude connector, your own Claude subscription does the thinking and this allowance is not touched at all.

What costs extra

Your own devices connected over Tailscale cost nothing on our side.

Cancelling

Cancel from Manage subscription on the dashboard at any time. The plan stays active until the end of the period you paid for, then the workspace is frozen with every file kept, and comes back the moment you pick a plan again. There are no refunds for partial months unless the law requires it — see the terms.

Invoices and VAT

Payments are handled by Stripe, which emails a receipt for every charge. Prices are shown in euros.
