| Pricing | Foundation: pay-as-you-go from $10 per service connection/month plus $8.33 per 1K client-side MAU/month on annual billing ($10/1K listed in the comparison table); no platform or seat fees; 14-day trial · free tier: Developer: $0/month forever, no credit card; unlimited seats and flags, 100K experimentation MAU/month, 1K client-side MAU, 5 service connections, 10M logs and 10M traces, 5K session replays, 5K errors, 5,000 AI runs, 1 project / 3 environments, Discord community support | Plus: "Starts at $0" — first 2M events/month free, credit card required, scales to 70M events · free tier: Free plan: 2M events/month forever, no credit card required, includes limited experiments, Guides & Surveys and 10K monthly session replays |
| Pricing model | Usage-based (service connections, client-side MAU, AI runs) with free tier and custom Enterprise | Freemium with custom event-based pricing and paid add-ons |
| Best for | Engineering-led product organisations already shipping behind feature flags that want server-side, mobile and AI-agent experimentation attached to the release mechanism, with results computed in their own warehouse and broad read access without seat fees. | Mid-market product and engineering teams already committed to Amplitude analytics whose main need is safe flag-gated releases plus a small number of high-value experiments measured against existing event data — and who will negotiate experimentation add-ons into the initial contract. |
| Avoid if | You are a marketing or growth team wanting to build page tests without engineering, need SOC2/audit logs/SCIM on a self-serve budget, run serverless/K8s/Python/Ruby stacks and want a predictable published price, or require auto-rollback and a 99.99% SLA without funding Enterprise plus the Guardian add-on. | You are a high-velocity CRO team running many simultaneous tests, a marketing-led team wanting no-code page testing (that is the separate Web Experimentation SKU), a buyer needing budget certainty before a sales call, or you need bandits and holdout groups as standard rather than add-ons. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
