## Editions

ObjectOS Community is free and has no rate card. For the two commercial
editions there is one rate card, two deliveries, and the **AI seat** is the
only unit of pricing.

Two **contract options under ObjectOS Enterprise** sit between Team and a
full private deployment, priced as before: **Business** (SSO and AI
governance on ObjectOS Cloud, **$54** / AI seat / mo, or $45 / AI seat / mo
billed annually; priority support) and **Business Self-Managed** (the
single-node entry option, **$540** / AI seat / yr). Both are sold by contract —
[contact sales](mailto:sales@objectstack.ai).

Want to self-host **for free**? That's **ObjectOS Community** (MCP-only AI:
bring your own model). See [ObjectOS Community](#objectos-community) below.

## Cloud or self-managed

Self-managed ObjectOS is **ObjectOS Enterprise**, and Enterprise is
self-managed only: Cloud tops out at Business.

- **Cloud (Free / Team / Business)** — fully hosted, self-serve. The price
includes hosting and a generous monthly AI allowance (we run the model).
- **Business Self-Managed** — the single-node entry option of ObjectOS
Enterprise: the Business plan delivered as a **single-node Docker license**
for **10–25 AI seats** ($540/AI seat/yr, annual): in-UI AI and AI
governance on your own infrastructure, **bring your own model / key** (you
pay your own LLM cost — no platform AI bill or metering), card-paid,
standard support. If the license lapses, the runtime keeps running and your
data stays intact — the paid features simply switch off (it never bricks).
- **Enterprise** — the full private deployment, for everything beyond
that: clustering / HA / multi-node, multi-organization self-host,
data residency and **air-gapped** operation, SCIM and identity lifecycle,
compliance attestations, SLA and dedicated support, and offline / invoice
payment. Sold as an **annual license** with multi-year price-lock options;
on non-renewal your deployment **keeps the last paid version perpetually**
(you lose updates and support, never your system or data). Pricing is
volume-based — [contact sales](mailto:sales@objectstack.ai).
Self-managed ObjectOS is **ObjectOS Community** (free) or **ObjectOS
Enterprise** (licensed). Cloud is Free and Team; everything above Team is an
Enterprise contract.

- **Cloud (Free / Team)** — fully hosted, self-serve. The price includes
hosting and a generous monthly AI allowance (we run the model).
- **Enterprise** — licensed ObjectOS, sold by contract, in three shapes:
- **Business** — a contract option on ObjectOS Cloud: SSO / SAML and AI
governance (action audit, guardrails, permission scoping) on the hosted
service, $54 / AI seat / mo or $45 / AI seat / mo billed annually,
priority support.
- **Business Self-Managed** — the single-node entry option: the Business
plan delivered as a **single-node Docker license** for **10–25 AI seats**
($540/AI seat/yr, annual): in-UI AI and AI governance on your own
infrastructure, **bring your own model / key** (you pay your own LLM
cost — no platform AI bill or metering), card-paid, standard support. If
the license lapses, the runtime keeps running and your data stays intact —
the paid features simply switch off (it never bricks).
- **Full private deployment** — for everything beyond that: clustering /
HA / multi-node, multi-organization self-host, data residency and
**air-gapped** operation, SCIM and identity lifecycle, compliance
attestations, SLA and dedicated support, and offline / invoice payment.
Sold as an **annual license** with multi-year price-lock options; on
non-renewal your deployment **keeps the last paid version perpetually**
(you lose updates and support, never your system or data). Pricing is
volume-based — [contact sales](mailto:sales@objectstack.ai).

There is **no per-node charge** — clustering / scale is folded into
Enterprise.
