Pricing questions
What counts as a device?
One enrolled Linux host running the agent. Unenroll it and the slot is free.
What if I need more than 500 devices?
The Scale plan is custom: OEM and white-label options, SSO, advanced support, private control plane. Email us.
Are there overages?
Not during the beta. We expect to add per-device overage in the $0.10 to $0.25 range and registry storage or bandwidth metering only where it materially affects cost, and we will publish it before charging it.
Is the managed registry required?
No. Docker Hub, GHCR, and private OCI registries work with your own credentials. The managed registry removes friction for private images and short-lived pull credentials per device.
Can I pay yearly?
Yes, with two months free, at checkout.
Add your first device free.
Five devices and five gigabytes of registry on the Free plan. No card, no sales call, no Kubernetes.
