Live Beta — free to use during beta. Paid tiers are marked "Free during beta" until monetization launches.

Pricing

The Free edition is not a trial: it is the complete local application, forever. Paid plans add things that need a server, never bigger limits on what you already have.

We are in beta: every plan is open to everyone, free, right now. The plans below start only after the beta ends. We will announce the date at least 30 days ahead, here and inside Cockpit. Beta accounts keep today's price for twelve months after that.
No quotas, ever. Every plan, including Free, has unlimited projects, chats, agents, local models and local tools. You bring your own AI keys; Cockpit never resells model usage.

Founder lifetime

Pro, paid once. It is a limited offer for the people who back Cockpit early, and the price goes up as places are taken or time passes, whichever comes first:

WindowPricePlacesEnds
1$99100after the first month, or when the places are taken
2$149300after month 3, or when the places are taken
3$240600after month 12, or when the places are taken

At most 1000 lifetime plans will ever be sold, and none after the first year. A lifetime plan covers the version you have now and the next three major versions (a major version is one where the first number changes; for example, from version 2 you get 4, 6 and 8). After those, you keep the last one you were entitled to, for free, for life. A newer major version needs a paid plan, and if you stop paying, you go on using the last version you were entitled to. The extras that need our servers (premium packs, early builds, priority updates, support) end with the third version. Everywhere is not included, because it has a running cost; it stays $5 a month.

Discounts

Students and teachers, non-profits and charities, and people in countries where these prices are hard to afford can get 50% off any paid plan. Each is checked by hand before a code is sent, and renewed once a year.

Questions

What stays free?

Everything that runs on your own computer. If it needs no server of ours, it is free.

Can I cancel? Do you give refunds?

You can cancel any time, and your plan stays active until the end of the period you paid for. We do not give refunds, so if you want to try a plan first, choose the monthly one. A lifetime plan is not refundable either.

Who handles payment?

Lemon Squeezy, a payment company that also handles the tax. We never see your card.

Creators in the Marketplace?

People who publish things others use earn plan time, never money. No payouts, no paperwork.

Can I just say thank you?

There will be a small optional "support Cockpit" link on the About page. Never a pop-up.

Prices are in US dollars. Plans are not on sale yet. This page describes what will start after the beta; it will be updated with the date.
