Pricing for engineering teams who hate procurement

Engineering teams love free trials and hate procurement. Here's how we landed on a pricing page that doesn't apologize for either.

Engineers don't fill out forms to buy software. Make them fill out a form and you've already lost the team.

Engineering tools die in procurement before they die in production. The team that will use the product decides on a weekend install — procurement shows up weeks later with a form.

Our pricing page is designed for that reality: try first, price clearly, enterprise when you are ready — not before.

What engineers actually do

They connect a repo on Saturday, share a digest link on Monday, and decide whether it stays before anyone prints a PO. If trial requires a sales call, you have already lost the users who matter.

Install → try → share → adopt. Procurement joins after the product has already won.

The free tier runs against a real repo without a calendar invite. Scale tier sits on the same page — same tone, no theatre.

Annual contracts without the dance

Every plan shows a number. 'Contact us' is not a substitute for a price.

Larger teams still need SSO, audit logs, and invoices. We did not hide the product behind enterprise. When procurement arrives, the conversation is residency and deployment — not whether the tool works.

What we won't do

We will not charge per seat for read-only viewers. Metrics only work when the whole team sees them.

  • No 'contact us' as the only price on the page you land on from Google
  • No gating core delivery views behind enterprise
  • No surprise overages on repos you already connected in beta

Key takeaways

  • Let engineers win the tool before procurement enters the room.
  • Show real numbers on every tier — transparency is part of the product.
  • Viewer seats should not be a tax on visibility.

DORA without dashboard fatigue

Four metrics matter — but only if your team sees them in standup, not in a slide deck nobody opens.
