Pricing

Pricing is still brewing.

If you do not use Glubean Cloud, the workflow stays free and open source. Cloud will be usage-based when it launches.

Free forever without Cloud

The open source workflow stack is not on a timer.

  • Open source SDK, CLI, and VS Code extension
  • Unlimited local runs on your machine or in your own CI
  • Custom plugins, shared configure() patterns, and browser workflows
  • No account required unless you want Cloud visibility

Cloud pricing principles

Cloud is for hosted visibility, not for locking the workflow.

  • Cloud pricing is still coming soon
  • Billing will be based on usage, not seat count
  • Teams should not get punished for inviting more engineers
  • The open source workflow stays usable without a paid plan

Pay for hosted signal

Pay for hosted runs, dashboards, alerts, and shared history in Cloud.

Invite the whole team

Seat-based pricing creates friction exactly where collaboration should be easiest.

Keep the OSS path clean

Local authoring and self-managed execution stay useful even if you never create a Cloud account.

FAQ

Common questions about what costs what.

What stays free forever?

Everything that runs without Glubean Cloud: the open source SDK, CLI, VS Code extension, local execution, and your own CI usage.

When would I pay?

Only when you want hosted visibility, alerts, shared history, dashboards, and managed runs in Glubean Cloud.

Will pricing be per seat?

No. The plan is to price Cloud by usage rather than by the number of developers on your team.

Can we stay fully open source?

Yes. If you do not use Cloud, Glubean remains a 100% free and open source workflow stack.

Start free with the open source workflow.

Use the SDK, extension, and your own CI for free. Add Cloud only when shared visibility is worth paying for.
