Pricing & usage
YoFix is usage-based. We charge for the compute the platform actually runs on your behalf, not for the size of your team or the number of repositories.
Plans
| Plan | Pricing model | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Hobby | $0 / month forever, no credit card | Individuals & open source |
| Pro | Pay-as-you-go. Upgraded build resources. | Production teams |
| Enterprise | Annual committed-use discount | Compliance & scale |
What we charge for
| Meter | Pro rate | Enterprise rate |
|---|---|---|
| Build CPU | $0.008 / CPU·minute | Volume-discounted |
| VRT screenshots | $0.0012 / screenshot | Volume-discounted |
| AI credits (route analysis, smart re-runs) | $0.005 / credit | Volume-discounted |
| Artifact storage | $0.08 / GB·month | Bring-your-own-bucket option |
VRT screenshots are billed per-screenshot because each one runs a deterministic Playwright capture with bounded CPU. The flat per-shot rate is easier to reason about than amortizing screenshot CPU into the build meter, and it matches what the in-page calculator uses.
Volume discounts on Pro auto-apply past 10k, 50k, and 100k CPU minutes. Enterprise rates are negotiated against committed annual usage.
What we never charge for
- Team members. Add your entire engineering org. No per-seat fee, ever.
- Projects. Connect as many repositories as you want.
- Preview URLs. Every PR gets one. No cap.
- PR comments. Unlimited.
- Custom domains. Bring as many as you need.
- Audit logs. Always on.
- Rollback. Free, instant, included.
Free tier
Every account gets, every month, free of charge:
- 100 build minutes: enough for ~30-50 small builds.
- 1,000 VRT screenshots: enough for ~20 PRs on a 50-route app.
- $5 in AI credits: route analysis and smart re-runs.
- 1 GB artifact storage: for retained preview artifacts.
The free tier resets on the 1st of each month. No credit card required to use it. It is intentionally generous because:
- Most individuals never exceed it.
- Most OSS projects never exceed it.
- It removes the “is this going to bite me later” friction at signup.
Pro
Pro is pure pay-as-you-go. No subscription fee, no contract, no per-seat fee. You add payment info, the perks unlock, and you’re billed monthly for the compute you consumed.
What Pro unlocks
| Resource | Hobby | Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Concurrent builds | 1 | 4 |
| Build memory | 4 GB | 8 GB |
| Build timeout | 30 min | 60 min |
| Build queue | Shared | Priority |
| Custom preview domains | None | Yes (auto-TLS) |
| Support | Community | Email & chat |
Adding payment info to a Hobby workspace promotes it to Pro. Pro builds run on dedicated workers with higher limits; Hobby builds run in a shared pool that can queue under load.
Usage rates
You pay for the work the platform does:
- $0.008 / CPU·min for builds
- $0.0012 / screenshot for VRT captures
- $0.005 / AI credit for route analysis
- $0.08 / GB·month for retained artifact storage
- Volume discount past 10,000 CPU minutes per month
You can set a monthly spend cap under Workspace → Billing. When the cap is reached, new previews are queued but not built until the next billing cycle (or until you raise the cap). Production builds and rollback are never blocked by the cap.
Worked example
A team with 3,000 build minutes, 6,000 VRT screenshots, 1,500 AI credits, and 25 GB storage per month:
| Line | Amount |
|---|---|
| Build & VRT (3000 × $0.008 + 6000 × $0.0012) | $31.20 |
| AI credits (1500 × $0.005) | $7.50 |
| Storage (25 × $0.08) | $2.00 |
| Free tier credit | −$7.08 |
| Monthly total | $33.62 |
A team running just a few builds a month pays a few cents. A team running thousands of builds pays in proportion to what they ran.
Enterprise
Enterprise customers get:
- A committed-use annual contract with discounted CPU and AI rates (typically 30-60% below Pro list, depending on volume).
- A 99.95% uptime SLA with service credits.
- SAML SSO + SCIM provisioning.
- Audit log SIEM export.
- Bring your own storage bucket (we never see your artifacts).
- Dedicated worker pool isolated from the shared multi-tenant pool.
- A self-hosting option (run YoFix entirely inside your VPC under AGPL).
- A dedicated success engineer and a Slack Connect channel.
Pricing guarantees
- We will not raise prices on existing usage without 90 days notice.
- We will not charge for failed builds. If a build fails due to a platform issue, the CPU minutes consumed are refunded automatically.
- We will not meter idle time. Workers consume CPU only while running your job. Queue wait time is free.
How to estimate your bill
A typical mid-size SaaS team with ~50 PRs/week and a 30-route app on Pro tends to use:
- ~3,000 build minutes / month
- ~6,000 VRT screenshots / month
- ~1,500 AI credits / month
- ~25 GB artifact storage
Estimated monthly bill: ~$34 for unlimited team members on a production-grade visual testing pipeline.
Compare to typical per-seat pricing ($20/seat) for a 15-person team: $300/month before any usage charges.
Light-usage teams pay a few dollars a month. Heavy-usage teams scale linearly with the meters they actually consume.
