Trigger.dev Pricing 2026: What You Actually Pay

Trigger.dev pricing in 2026 runs on two meters: $0.25 per 10,000 runs plus a per-compute-second charge set by machine size, drawn from monthly credits (Free $5, Hobby $10, Pro $50). A light side project stays free; a busy agentic workload can pass $1,000/month, 99% of it compute.

LaunchDarkly Pricing in 2026: The Real 30-Day Bill

LaunchDarkly's 2026 pricing no longer charges per seat. The paid Foundation plan meters two lines: $10 per service connection per month plus $8.33 per 1,000 client-side monthly active users (MAU). The MAU meter bills your highest-volume context kind, so a 500,000-device app pays $4,165 a month on MAU alone even with far fewer logged-in users. A worked mid-size bill lands near $4,565 a month, about 91% driven by the MAU meter. Seats are free; the meter that hurts is client-side MAU.
