Pricing and plans

Buildkite offers a range of plans designed to suit teams of all sizes, from individual developers to large enterprises.

Available plans

Buildkite offers the following plans:

Personal: For individual developers exploring the Buildkite platform.
Pro: For growing teams that need more capacity and features.
Enterprise: For organizations that require advanced security, compliance, and dedicated support.

Plans differ in the features available, usage limits, and level of support provided. For a detailed comparison of what each plan includes, visit the Buildkite pricing page.

To find out which plan your organization is on or to manage your subscription, select Settings in the global navigation to access the Organization Settings page.

Each plan has default service quotas that define usage limits across the Buildkite platform. Buildkite organization administrators can view the quotas that apply to their organization in the Organization Settings page in the Quotas tab > Service Quotas section.

For how artifact storage and transfer usage in Buildkite-managed artifact storage is calculated and billed, see Artifacts billing.

Billing spend alerts

Spend alerts notify your organization when its estimated next invoice reaches a threshold you choose. Spend alerts are informational only—they don't cap spending, stop builds, or disable usage.

Spend alerts are available to organizations on a monthly Pro plan that renews automatically. Legacy Buildkite Pipelines Pro plans are not supported. To set up or change a spend alert, you need billing administration permissions for your organization.

To set up a spend alert:

Select Settings in the global navigation, then select Billing.
In the Spend Alert row, select Set spend alert.
Ensure Enable spend alert is selected, then enter an Invoice threshold (USD).
Optionally, select Add my email to billing contacts.
Select Save spend alert.

To change the threshold or turn off the alert, select Manage spend alert in the Spend Alert row.

When the estimate reaches or exceeds your threshold:

Organization administrators see a banner across Buildkite.
Your organization's billing contacts receive an email, at most once per billing period.

If your organization has no billing contacts when the threshold is first reached, the banner still appears, but no email is sent for that billing period.

Spend alerts aren't real-time. Your invoice estimate may already be higher than your threshold when an alert is sent. The estimate is based on charges accrued so far. Usage reporting can be delayed. The estimate may also differ from your final invoice.

Viewing prepaid inclusions

Managed enterprise customers with the inclusions report enabled can view their prepaid entitlements and current usage from the Billing section of their organization settings. This helps you track consumption against what is included in your plan and estimate any overage charges before they are invoiced.

To access the inclusions report, you need billing administration permissions for your organization. To view it:

Select Settings in the global navigation, then select Billing.
Select the Inclusions tab.

The Inclusions page shows your included entitlements versus actual usage for the current subscription period. The page displays the subscription period dates and the number of days remaining.

Monthly resources

The Monthly resources section shows metered resources calculated as a three-month rolling average. Columns include usage for each of the last three calendar months, the three-month average, the included amount per month, the amount over the included threshold, the unit price, and an estimated overage charge.

Overage above the included amount is invoiceable.

Subscription period resources

The Subscription period resources section shows resources tracked over the full subscription period. Columns include current usage, the included amount, the amount over the included threshold, the unit price, and an estimated overage charge.
