Pricing
Free to run, build, and ship.
Everything you need to build, check, and launch an app costs nothing: no account, no card, no trial clock. The Playground is free, and it stays free, by the owner’s decision. What we charge for is a handful of optional plugins and the hosted subscriptions below, which run things after you ship. Neither of those is open yet.
$0
The whole desktop app, free for good. No account needed, no card.
- Run any AI-built app instantly: no dev server, no ports, no setup
- Unlimited local previews, so you never spend AI credits just to look at your work
- Live inspect & edit: click the page, land on the code; live CSS panel
- Watch panel: see DOM, network, and state as it really runs
- Bug tracker: runtime errors captured, grouped, ranked worst-first
- Due Diligence audit*: the full 5 pillars, 34 checks, plus one-click Doctor fixes
- SEO audit, including the deeper crawl*: a measured 0–100 on-page score and a plan. The depth is part of the audit, so it is free with it
- Acquisition audit*: all fifteen areas of sale-readiness
- Website template builder: build the site around your app, SEO generated
- Save points: commit, undo, and a per-app history (the optional suggested commit message*)
- Publish & deploy: S3/CloudFront, Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare, SFTP, GitHub Pages
- AWS hosting provisioner: creates the bucket, certificate, and CDN for you
- Your own categories, themes, and custom CSS
- Vibe Coder 101: the whole 38-stage course, free to everyone
Your apps stay in your folders. Nothing to host, no lock-in, nothing expires. Everything in this card is free now and free later. The code audit, the badge and its verification page, the SEO audit, and WordPress management are free by a written owner decision that the app itself enforces: none of them can be put behind a paywall by a configuration change.
$47.00 / month
Planned price, and Cloud is not open yet, so there is nothing to buy and nothing is being promised for a date. Groundwork is built; nothing is released.
Everything in Free, plus (planned):
- Your roadmap, hosted and backed up by us
- One roadmap across all your computers, shared with up to 3 collaborators. Your code syncs through your own git, not through us
- View every app and site from any device, served from where you already host it
- The enhanced directory listing for every product you audit
- Every paid plugin, planned to be included: Ad pixel + Ad Manager, Autoresponder, Launch Challenges, and any paid plugin added later, at no extra charge once Cloud opens
- The analytics add-on, planned to be included, with no separate per-app or unlimited charge on top of Cloud
- The Playground inside your own AI agent: Cloud is planned to buy the MCP connection into the AI agent you already use. The audits and code blocks themselves stay free in the Playground, and you do not buy API tokens for audits
- Build from your AI session: build a site and drop in the free code blocks without leaving your AI agent, through that same connection
We never store your app’s files. Your code stays on your machines and with the host you chose. None of the above is live until Cloud opens. When Cloud opens, a refund is self-serve: you ask, the product issues it, with no one in the loop. Join the list to be told when it lands.
$1500.00 / month
Planned price, and Enterprise is not open yet. Negotiated per organization, and the figure above is what it is planned to start from.
Or pay for a year up front: $15000.00 / year. That is $3000.00 less than twelve monthly payments. Monthly and annual plans both renew on their own until you cancel.
Planned to include 10 departments. Each extra department is $150.00 / month.
Everything in Cloud, plus (planned):
- Multi-seat teams: add and remove people
- Roles & permissions: who can deploy, audit, or change settings
- SSO via SAML 2.0: your identity provider, enforced org-wide
- SCIM provisioning, including deprovisioning: remove someone in your directory and their access here goes with it
- Audit trail: a durable record of who changed what, and when
- Central API-key and spend control across the team
- Org-wide audit reporting: every app’s standing in one view
- Priority support
The permission, entitlement, and audit-log seams are already in the app, flag-gated. Everything above is planned, not shipped. Enterprise refunds are issued by a person, not by the product, because an enterprise subscription is a negotiated contract and it is read before money moves.
Your code never leaves your control. Every audit runs on your machine, and the only outside access is your own AI on your own key.
Credits you have used are not refunded by default. A credit is spent when the AI call it paid for runs, and a hold a run did not need goes back to your balance. There is no promised reply time for support. Email contact@vibecoderplayground.ai and a person reads it, but no plan comes with a deadline for the answer. The one exception is a report of an accessibility barrier, which we aim to answer within 5 business days, as the accessibility statement says.
Add-ons
Optional extras you can add to any plan.
Enterprise, planned
Build, manage and market online products in one place
Enterprise is planned to include tools you may be paying for separately today. Enter what you pay a month for each kind, and this page sets the total against the Enterprise price above. We do not fill in anybody else’s prices, so every box starts empty.
Autoresponder: emails to your own contacts, sent when something happens in your app
Ad pixel + Ad Manager: the pixel on your published site and the manager behind it
Privacy-first analytics, with client errors from real visitors
Launch Challenges and the website template builder, with SEO generated
Enter what you pay a month for the tools you use today. Nothing is filled in for you.
Enterprise is not open yet, so this is a way to compare, not an offer. The figures you type stay in this page and are not sent anywhere.
* Needs your own Anthropic API key. The AI-powered features (all three audits, the one-click Doctor fixes, the in-app assistant, AI-assisted editing, and suggested commit messages) call the Claude API, and that usage is billed to you by Anthropic at their rates, not by us. Everything else on this page works with no key at all: running and previewing your app, inspect, Watch, the bug tracker, analytics, deploying, the site builder, and saving your work.
The Playground itself is free, and it stays free: no trial clock, no countdown, nothing to cancel. We charge only for a handful of optional plugins and for Cloud and Enterprise, and a paid plan never takes a free feature away. The optional built-in Claude features require your own Anthropic API key, and that usage is billed to you by Anthropic, so you always control the spend. We add no charge to the audits, and we do not resell you the AI that runs them. Everything else works without a key. Prices shown in USD, and the subscription figures above are planned amounts against tiers that are not open yet.
