Pricing

Four tiers, one product.

Anchored against the cost of an OSS Program Manager hire, not against per-developer PR-review tooling. Public, private, or both — the supply-chain, Contributor License Agreement (CLA), audit, and fleet capabilities apply to internal repos identically. Every paid tier includes a Caliper commercial-use license. Annual gives two months free.

Soft caps, not hard stops

Paid tiers don't hard-stop at quota — excess scans bill at the per-scan equivalent of the next tier. Only Community hard-stops at its allowance.

BYOK is a toggle

Bring your own Large Language Model (LLM) key on any paid tier — not a separate product. Token-driven credits stop being deducted; compute-driven credits (CPU, RAM, embeddings) still apply.

Caliper is bundled

Caliper ships publicly under BSL 1.1 — free for non-production and under-threshold commercial use. Every paid Steward tier includes the commercial-use license.

Anchor

What this actually replaces.

The realistic alternatives aren't other AI tools — they're hiring a dedicated OSS Program Manager (the COSS counterfactual) or continuing to do this work in your margins (the maintainer counterfactual). Steward is priced to make either an obvious comparison.
